- From the interview scheduler, adjust details if necessary (date, interview time, interview duration, interviewer(s)) then click Add scheduling details.
The interview will be automatically scheduled on the candidate’s and interviewer’s calendars and an email will be sent to the candidate stating that the interview has been scheduled.
