LinkedIn launches new tool to schedule interviews
LinkedIn has launched a new feature called ‘Scheduler’ to automate candidate interview scheduling process. This new tool allows the recruiter to schedule an initial interview with candidates, directly via InMail. Note that, the facility of InMail is only available for LinkedIn Premium users. How does it work? First, recruiters are prompted to sync their calendar (Office 365 or Google Calendar) with LinkedIn.
Then, using a new InMail message, recruiters can send a scheduling link directly to the candidate of interest. The link shares a real-time view of the recruiter’s calendar availability with candidates who can then choose what time works best for them, add their phone number and confirm the meeting.
Advanced settings allow recruiters to manage preferences such as time zones, availability, length of meetings and same-day meetings. Candidates can reschedule meetings with the recruiter through the confirmation link.
