Hi Everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well! The past month has been a wild ride as we continue onboarding world-class customers (Welcome to the family GoPro & Discord), growing our team, and ensuring that current customers have an incredible experience (this is an area where we’ll never drop the ball).

If you’ve been following us on LinkedIn, then I’m sure you’ve seen all the excitement about new funding, a new hire, and the speed at which we’re releasing new interview scheduling functionality.

I added some of our most recent product updates in this newsletter (scroll down a bit to learn more).

Our reporting has become next-level for coordination teams. Reschedule rates, interviewer capacity reporting, and so much more. The best part? It’s so easy to access - we don’t bog users down in complicated UI/UX.

Check out our usage data for our scheduling product:

We have a lot of exciting product updates to share with you

Suggested Time Slots

When scheduling interviews with candidates, you want to reduce the back-and-forth as much as possible

But you don’t always want to open calendars to allow for picking any time

So you ask for the candidate’s availability and schedule on your terms

However, this can lead to a lot of back & forth - candidate provides availability not matching the interviewers, now you need to go back to the candidate or ask the interviewer to shuffle around

Introducing suggested time slots

With suggested time slots, slots automatically appear for the candidates to select.

These are pulling directly from the one or multiple interviewers calendars behind the scenes

Now when scheduling, you’ll drastically reduce the probability there’s no overlapping slots to pick from

The best of both words - flexibility & automation together

Interviewer Capacity Report

When it comes to scheduling interviews, every single day counts

Delaying interviews by weeks can mean pushing new hires back by months

A key reason for these delays? A lack of available interviewers

Our new interviewing capacity report is here to solve that

Now, you can easily monitor how close you are to reaching your weekly maximum interviewing capacity

If you’re hitting 80% or higher, it’s a clear signal to expand your interviewer pool to keep things on track and avoid costly delays

Stay ahead of the curve and ensure your interviewing process runs smoothly with candidate.fyi 

Reschedules report

Each time a reschedule happens, it causes a lot of work for the recruiting teams

You need to go back to the drawing board

A new time to be coordinated

A new schedule across the various interviewers (with potentially new ones needed)

It’s a massive headache that causes a real business impact

But teams are largely left in the dark on how often this is occurring

Until now

With our reschedules report, you can see how many interviewers are being rescheduled across different types of interviews, jobs, and even departments

Even more powerful, you have access to a reschedule rate - showing you how often (and quite possibly how likely) it is for the interview to be rescheduled

This allows you to drill down into specific types of interviews to really get a sense in what’s going on

You can even see who is causing the reschedule (by hovering) - is it the candidate or is it internal?

access the data you need to analyze reschedule impact, right at your fingertips

Until next time,
