Calendar

A calendar is the graphical representation of time from which candidates can choose a date to book an appointment for an interview that will be carried out either in person or by phone.

Only an Administrator or a user with the Create calendars and Access Scheduling Center user type permission can create a calendar.

When creating a calendar, the user:

  • Provides a calendar name that is displayed to candidates when they are scheduling their appointment.

  • Specifies a scheduling horizon to indicate how long in advance the candidate may book an appointment on a calendar.

  • Selects a calendar owner.

  • Chooses if the calendar will be single location or multiple location.

  • Specifies if the interview will be held in person (default) or on the phone.

  • Selects locales for the calendar and enters location details.

Once the calendar is created, the user:

  • Adds a timeslot for candidates to be able to book appointments.

  • Activates the calendar. An active calendar can be used in a requisition for candidates to book appointments.

  • Adds the calendar to a requisition in the Recruiting Center. The calendar must also be assigned to a phase of the requisition for a candidate to be able to book an appointment. When candidates are invited to schedule an appointment, in the Scheduling Center Candidate Portal, candidates click Schedule Appointment.

Note: The Scheduling Center displays all appointments for a calendar regardless of the integration type used. Although the same calendar can be associated to both integration types on a single requisition, this is not recommended.
