The link offers the times when all the interviewers are free:

  • At least 24 hours ahead.
  • With 15 minutes free before and after the interviewers’ other interviews and meetings.
  • Never during their time off or a holiday.

You can offer up to 31 days.

What the candidate does

The candidate opens the link. They don’t need an account. They see the free times in their own time zone, pick one and confirm.

The interview is then booked. It shows in the Interviews tab and in Calendar. The candidate and the interviewers get an invitation by e-mail.

A Business owner can. A Member can with the Applications permission set to Write.

Common questions

The link offers no time. Why?

The interviewers have no common free time on the days you chose, within the rules above. Choose more days, or other interviewers.

Can two candidates book the same time?

No. A time that is taken is no longer offered. If a candidate picks a time that was just taken, they are asked to choose another one.

How do I plan an interview at a time I choose myself?

Click Add interview in the Interviews tab, and choose the time.
