This article is for administrators and staffing users.
Overview
Administrators and staffing users can launch Interview Scheduling for candidates in these stages:
- Recruiter Screen
- Schedule Phone Screen
- Schedule an Interview
Note: You can also grant Standard Users the ability to schedule interviews. For more information, refer to Set up the interview scheduling feature in Recruiting for standard users.
For a quick start, refer to Understand interview scheduling.
Schedule an interview
- Go to People > Hiring > Applicant Tracking.
- Select the job title.
- On Candidate Breakdown, select the candidate name.
- Depending on the stage, select either Schedule Phone Screen or Schedule Interview. The Interview Scheduling screen displays.
- Select +Add Interviewer.
- Select your first meeting interviewers and add more meetings if needed.
- Tip: Select the calendar icon to move the meetings. You can also select different meeting lengths.
-
Example:
- Phoebe Phelps is meeting with the candidate individually.
- Afterward, Martha and Ivan meet with the candidate together.
- If there is a time conflict, Recruiting alerts you with an exclamation mark ( ! ).
- The conflicting time slot is shown in red.
-
Example:
- Martha Mayhem has something on her calendar from 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM, so these meeting times do not work for her.
- If the interview start time is moved to 8:30 AM, then there are no conflicts.

- If you have Interview Rooms set up in Recruiting, add them to each meeting by selecting +Room.
- Select Next.
- Review the invitation templates and options.
- Select Schedule Interview or Schedule Phone Screen to send the emails.
- Select Invite the Candidate.
Edit and review details
- Go to People > Hiring > Applicant Tracking.
- Select the job title.
- On Candidate Breakdown, select the candidate name.
- To review the settings, select the Phone Screen / Interview Scheduled event.
- You can also see which interviewers have accepted the invite.
- Candidates do not receive an Accept/Decline invite, so their responses are not logged here.
