Get More Employees | [Calendar]: Schedule a Second Interview

If you need to schedule a second interview for a candidate (especially mid or high-level roles), here’s exactly how to do it using the calendar. This is best for ad hoc meetings where more decision-makers need to be involved.

📅 How to Schedule a Second Interview

1. Prep with the Candidate

  • ✅ After the first interview, confirm availability with the candidate for the second meeting.
  • ✅ Mention it’s a follow-up with another team member (e.g. CEO, GM).

2. Book via Calendar View

  1. Click on an open time slot in your calendar that aligns with the candidate’s availability.
  2. In the pop-up:
    • Adjust the calendar if needed (default is usually set to Regional Manager).
    • Title: Use something like "Second Interview – [Candidate Name]".
    • Description (optional): Add any context or notes about the meeting.

3. Add the Candidate

  1. In the contact field, search and select the applicant’s name to attach them to the interview.

4. Set the Time

  1. Adjust the time and date as needed (e.g. 3:00 PM Thursday).
    • The system will default to 15 minutes, adjust if needed.

5. Finalize

  1. Click "Book Interview" to save it to the calendar.

⚠️ Important Notes

  • Don’t use this for entry-level roles—it slows down hiring and reduces scalability.
  • Applicants are only on the market for ~8 days, so act fast.
  • For smoother hiring, train to hire right the first time—reach out if you want access to those trainings.

Done! The second interview is now booked and visible in the calendar.
