5 Automated Interview Scheduling Tools
Looking to speed up your interview process? Add an automated scheduling tool to the mix. Not only will you free up recruiters time but candidates will love you for it as well. In today’s episode Chris Russell will discuss the top tools on the market. Goodtime is a talent operations platform for interview scheduling and interviewer training. They just raised $5 million in new funding. It sits on top of your ATS. Select interviewers yourself or let us pick the most optimal set of interviewers based on attributes/skill sets needed for the interview. GoodTime integrates with interviewers’ calendars, providing real-time availability for your candidate to select a date/time for the interview. GoodTime immediately syncs the candidate’s selection to your ATS & calendars then notifies the recruiting team, interviewers and the candidate. Interview Schedule: Find the best schedule without playing Calendar Tetris. Simplify the most manual parts of your workflow. Connect your calendar and ATS to simplify your process and minimize time toggling between tabs. Meet the needs of your candidates and team. Handle preferences and complex requirements. Interview Assistant:As an online interview scheduler created for recruiters, Interviewer Assistant allows you to quickly and easily create new interviews. With our online interview scheduler candidates will receive invitations and confirmations immediately, resulting in faster bookings and less work for you. TextRecruit: Automated Scheduling is the newest part of their platform. Automated Scheduling gives you the ability to send candidates a link to schedule time directly on your calendar – eliminating the back and forth of scheduling a meeting. Links can be sent on a one-to-one basis, as part of a campaign, or scaled for high-volume recruiting with Ari, our recruiting AI. ClaraLabs: With the introduction of back-to-back coordination, Clara can now coordinate scheduling at every stage of the interview process from initial phone screens, to hiring manager interviews, to onsite interviews. Clara Labs also continues to add to its growing list of integrations, including Microsoft 365, G Suite, Zoom, and applicant tracking systems Greenhouse and Lever, to deliver a truly seamless experience for recruiting teams and candidates alike.
