Abstract

Send Invites and Confirm Attendance for an interview

### Send Invites and Confirm Attendance for an interview

- A communication template must be selected when sending invites. For more information on creating communication templates, see [Configure Communications](/v1/docs/configure-communications).

- It is recommended to include instructions in the candidate communication to direct the candidate to select the **Interview Link** in the communication and then select **Confirm**to confirm their attendance.
- Invitations are sent as meeting requests. If your email client supports meeting requests, the interview is added to your calendar.
- If an invitation was not received, the Interview Details page can be used to resend the invites by selecting **Resend Invites.**
- The Send Invites window is accessed after an interview is created, or from the **Manage Interviews** window by selecting the three dots menu → Send Invites.
- Both the candidate and interviewer must confirm their attendance to the interview to update the interview status to **Interview Scheduled.**
- Interview invites automatically display to the recipient in their systems time zone.
