Set My Preferred Availablity for Interviews

As an interviewer, you can decide when you're available for candidate interviews. You might be requested to define your preferred availability when a new interview schedule is created on a requisition or when a shared schedule is added on a requisition.

Before you start

You need the Access My Candidate Interviews and Feedback privilege.

Here's what to do

  1. Click the Interviews quick action available under Me > Interviews.
  2. Click the My Availability tab.
  3. Click Edit to set your preferred availability.
    • Use my Microsoft 365 calendar availability: This is the default option.
    • Use both my preferred availability and my Microsoft 365 calendar availability: With this option, you can define your availability for each day of the week. You can change your availability at any time.
  4. Click Save.

Results:

When time slots are proposed to candidates invited to schedule an interview on a candidate managed schedule that uses automated scheduling (the "Candidates schedule based on interviewers' availability" setting is selected), both calendar availability from Microsoft 365 and your preferred availability are considered. For a given time slot to be proposed to candidates, you must be available in both places (your preferred availability and Microsoft 365).
