How to schedule an Interview with an Applicant?

This article will show you how to schedule an interview with an Applicant via the Recruit app.

Once an Applicant is added to the Recruit app, an interview with them can easily be scheduled via Recruit, with details that include all important pieces of information, including the Interview title, Date and time, Time Zone, Location, Job Title that the Applicant is applying for, and any other Interviewers that might partake.

There are two ways in which this can be done:

1. Go to the Recruit app from the left panel of the application.

2. In the Interviews tab click on the '+' icon on the top of the grid.

3.  A fly-out panel Schedule new interview will appear on the right-hand side of the screen. 

4. Add the Interview Title by clicking on the pencil icon and typing in the desired name. 

5. Choose an Applicant from a flyout with a  grid of all applicants.

6. The Creator of the interview will automatically be added as one of the Interviewers.

Any additional Interviewers can be added by clicking on the field and choosing them from the list of Employees.

7.  Add Start and End Time and Date by choosing the correct dates from the calendar and by dragging the slider for the correct hour. Optionally, you can add a Time Zone from the drop-down list. 

8. Location can be added by typing in the desired address of the Interview or by toggling the Meet via Zoom or Meet via MS Teams for remote options. 

9. Optionally, add a description of the interview. 

10. Click Create on the top right corner of the fly-out.

Also, all participants will receive an E-mail notification.


The Applicant will be able to Accept or Deny the scheduled Interview, and all other Interviewers will then be additionally notified of the Applicant's reply (bear in mind, an Applicant can modify their answer for a maximum of two edits i.e. from Accept to Deny or vice versa).


Alternatively, if the Interview is modified or canceled, the Applicant will also be notified via e-mail.
