Auto-send candidate invites for confirmed interviewer holds
WHAT'S INCLUDED
When all required interviewers across all slots accept their holds, Eightfold automatically sends the candidate invitation without requiring the scheduler to manually send out the invite.
Admins can configure how much time must remain before the earliest interview starts for the invitation to be sent automatically.
If all interviewers confirm beforehand, the candidate invitation is sent automatically. If an interviewer declines, the existing manual resume scheduling flow applies.
Schedulers can still use resume scheduling at any time from the Scheduling Center.
WHY IT MATTERS
Automates candidate communication with timing controls, so schedulers handle only exceptions instead of monitoring every hold.
FEATURE DETAILS
Who can access | Schedulers, Recruiters, Customer Admins |
Feature type | Default Off (Self-service) |
Requirements | Hold interviewer time must already be enabled. |
GETTING STARTED
Admins: Decide the minimum notice a candidate should receive, in hours, then enable automatic sending with that boundary. To configure this feature, read the Scheduling Configuration Guide.
End users: When using the Hold interviewer workflow, complete the candidate communication step. Once all required interviewers confirm their holds the candidate invitation is sent automatically. The amount of time ahead of an interview can be configured (default is 24 hours). Otherwise, schedulers can use Resume scheduling in the Scheduling Center to complete the request manually.
