    Scheduling View event jobs Available events / automatic scheduling View interview times View details Candidate experience with dynamic content Registration reminders Registered message from your AI Assistant

    Below outlines the candidate's experience in being automatically invited to hiring events when this configuration is set on your account.

    Follow the steps outlined here to configure this experience for your hiring events and here to learn more logic on this feature.

     

    Scheduling

    When candidates should be invited to a hiring event, the system will look for upcoming hiring events to present to the candidate. When one or more hiring event(s) are available, then the candidate will receive a list of available event(s), and their status will be updated to Hiring Event Invitation Pending. If no hiring events meet the above criteria, then the candidate’s status will be updated to No Event Availability. 

    If a candidate is in the No Event Availability status, their status will automatically change to Hiring Event Invitation Pending when:

    • A user edits aspects of the event (adding more sessions or interview slots, extending sessions, opens registration again, adds a new job, etc.).
      AND
    • Either:
      • New hiring events are added that they're qualified for.
      • Registration for existing qualifying events is updated (e.g., more slots become available).

    They candidate is then sent a new hiring event invitation.


    View event jobs

    On the hiring event landing page, candidates can view the active jobs that were added to the event. Candidates can click into a specific job to view its details.

    To register for an event, 

    1. The candidate will need to select the Register for Event button in the right panel to sign up. 
    2. Your AI Assistant will then begin a conversation with your candidate to capture their information.
    3. Your AI Assistant will display all jobs that are open and tied to the event for the candidate to review. 
    4. When the candidate selects a job, it will then open its details for review. At the bottom of each job description, an Apply Now button will be listed that, when clicked, will begin the screening process.
    5. The candidate will then be able to select their preferred times or select View Additional Times to choose a different time. When this button is clicked, the screen in the following section will display for them to navigate through and choose the preferred time. Otherwise, if they choose a listed time, then the confirmation message will appear for them to confirm and then receive a confetti message.

    Available events / automatic scheduling

    Candidates will be reminded 24, 48, and 72 hours after the initial hiring event invitation to register for an event if they have not done so already. 

     

    When hiring events meet the scheduling logic and your account is set up to include automatic scheduling for hiring events, then the following experience will take place:

    1. Your AI Assistant will notify the candidate of the hiring events that are available for them to schedule. 
    2. They will receive this message via web and their preferred method of communication.
    3. The candidate will then click View All Events to view a modal that lists all available events in chronological order.

    The below screenshot outlines this experience.

    1. Image: The event landing page header image.
    2. Interview Type pills: These pills dictate the type of interview available for that event.
    3. Event start and end date: The dates that this event will take place.
    4. Event details: The name, time, and location of the event. If the event is remote, it will display Remote here.
    5. Interview Spots Remaining: This will only appear for interview style hiring events. This will display the total number of available spots for the candidate to choose from, which will appear when there are 20 or less available interview spots.
    6. View Interview Times: This button will appear for in-person, virtual, and phone style hiring events. When clicked, the candidate will be able to select the interview date and type that works best for them. This is described in more detail below.
    7. View Details: This button will appear for chat booth style hiring events. When clicked, the candidate will be able to view more details about the event and confirm their registration. This is described in more detail below.
    8. Do this Later / Close: This will close the modal and activate the chat box.

    View interview times

    The View Interview Times button will display for in-person, virtual, and phone style hiring events.

    When the View Interview Times button is clicked for in-person, virtual, or phone hiring events, then the page will update to display all event dates that have interview availability. The candidate will first need to select their preferred date/interview type.

    If there is only one interview session available, then the screen will automatically open to the following screen.

    The modal will expand and include a listing of all available interview times. Candidates can update to their preferred language, if the multilingual feature is enabled, from the language selector and the time zone in the top right corner of the modal before selecting a time slot.

    A confirmation message will appear that provides the event name, date, time, interview type, and location of the interview. The candidate will need to click Confirm & Schedule to officially schedule the interview.

    A confetti message will then display to confirm the scheduled interview.

    View details

    The View Details button will appear for chat booth style hiring events. When this button is clicked, then the details about the hiring event will be displayed in the modal. Candidates will click the Confirm Registration button to sign up for the event.

    The modal will update to notify the candidate that they are registered for the chat booth style hiring event.

    Candidate experience with dynamic content

    The registration process will follow the same steps outlined above but the information will be shared within the experience grid rather than a pop-out modal.

    The You’re Invited! card will display within the experience grid. To view available events, the candidate can click either the View All Events button within this card or click the Events icon in the grid’s top navigation bar.

    When the Register for a hiring event! screen loads, the following sections will be listed:

    1. In the left section, the hiring events that the candidate is qualified for will display. The candidate will then click the preferred event from this section.
    2. Once the event is selected, the candidate will then be able to click their preferred interview date and type from the right section. The Select Interview Type button will be enabled for them to select and open up available interview times.
      • Note: Candidates can select their preferred language (if the Multilingual feature is enabled) and time zone from the selectors listed above the available times.

    Registration reminders

    Candidates will be reminded 24, 48, and 72 hours after the initial hiring event invitation to register for an event if they have not done so already. The candidate’s pending hiring event invitation will expire after the configured time range, which is set on the backend by your CS Representative, and their Candidate Journey status will update to Hiring Event Invitation Expired.

    Registered message from your AI Assistant

    To finish the conversation, your AI Assistant will provide a final message notifying them of the date, time, location, and type of interview that they scheduled. In addition to this, a You’re registered! box will appear to close the conversation.
