    Schedule candidates to an event Hiring event Hiring event invitation logic Orientation events

    You can manually schedule candidates easily for a hiring or orientation event.


    Schedule candidates to an event

    Hiring event

    If a candidate is already registered for an event via event invitation and then is manually scheduled for another event, that first event's registration will be canceled for that candidate.

     
    1. When viewing a candidate's profile, select More and then Schedule.
    2. This will open the scheduling drawer. Select Event.
    3. In the Choose an Event selector, search for and then select the preferred event. This list will display all upcoming events within the account's scheduling timeline. 
      • Important Note: You can search by the event type, date, day of the week, start time, venue type, and address.


         
    4. Select the interview sessions that will be sent to the candidate. There is no limit to the total number of interview sessions that you can select.
      • Note: If the candidate selects View Additional Times, they will only be able to select from additional times within the selected session(s).
    5. Click Schedule to schedule the candidate to send the selected session(s) to the candidate.

    Once confirmed by the candidate, their status will update to Registration Confirmed and then Event Interview Scheduled to note that the candidate has also been registered for the event.

    Hiring event invitation logic

    • If the candidate receives an event scheduling request and multiple interview sessions are selected by the user, then the candidate can select an interview time from any of the sessions sent to the candidate.
    • SMS Experience. The initial scheduling request message will display 3 open interview times from the first session selected in the manual scheduling drawer.
    • If the candidate attempts to reschedule their event interview, all open interview times from all of the sessions selected by the user should be available to the candidate.

    Orientation events

    If a candidate completes their hiring event interview, they will remain on the All Candidates tab of that event’s Dashboard and can be scheduled for an orientation event.

     
    1. When viewing a candidate's profile, select More and then Schedule.
    2. The scheduling drawer will open. Select Orientation Event.
    3. Select the preferred orientation event from the upcoming orientation events list within your account's scheduling timeline. If you want to edit the scheduling timelines or break the time-based registration rules, the list of orientation events displayed, select Settings. The following options will then display:
      • Scheduling Timelines – You can toggle on Scheduling Timelines, which allows you to edit the values for the minimum and maximum time frame. By default, the values configured on the backend will display. Toggling this on allows you to edit those values so that more orientation events can be displayed.
      • Break Time Based registration Rules – If you toggle on Break Time Based Registration Rules, orientation events that have a closed registration based on time, which is configured within the event, will now display.


         
    4. If changes were made, click Apply to save these changes.
    5. You will now see orientation events that are within the custom-configured scheduling timeline as well as ones that have a closed registration. Select one or more (up to 3) orientation events. 
    6. Depending on whether you’ve selected one or multiple, click Schedule or Send Times, respectively, to schedule the candidate to an orientation event.
