Request Interviews to be Scheduled for Candidates

As a hiring manager or recruiter, you can request interviews to be scheduled for candidates. Interview coordinators then review the list of requests and take action to schedule interviews.

You can request interviews to be scheduled for one or several job applications. When you select 1 to 10 job applications, the Request Interview to Be Scheduled action is done in real time. If at least one job application is processed successfully, a confirmation message appears indicating that the action was successful. When you select more than 10 job applications, the action is done asynchronously, as a batch. You receive a notification when the action is completed. You can view details about the number of job applications that were processed successfully and those that failed.

The Request Interview to Be Scheduled action isn’t available for job applications that are in the states Withdrawn by Candidate and Rejected by Employer and those in the HR phase. The action is also not available when the job requisition is filled, canceled, or suspended.
