Group Interviews
I would like the ability to send an interview invitation template to multiple applicants simultaneously. Ideally, this would allow me to schedule a group of 10–20 candidates at once, rather than sending the same invitation individually to each person as required today. This functionality would be especially useful for high-volume, entry-level positions such as General Labor and higher-turnover warehouse roles. These are positions for which we regularly conduct group tours and interviews each week, and we simply don't have the time to schedule and conduct individual interviews. Because of the nature of these roles and interview method, some applicants may not respond or attend, particularly when we invite them to a group interview that's to occur the day after they apply (not enough notice, plus life happens). I would like the ability to easily invite those candidates to a future group interview without having to start the process over individually. Keep in mind we are talking about positions that will be filled by multiple candidates, meaning they will stay open a little longer than usual. One possible workflow could be: Drag the candidates we want to invite into a designated column or stage. Select the candidates and trigger an interview invitation template. Enter the interview date and time once. The system sends the personalized template to all selected candidates. After the invitation is sent, the candidates automatically move to another designated column or stage. If a candidate does not attend, we could move them back to the invitation stage and trigger the same template again with a new date and time. This would make high-volume interview scheduling significantly more efficient while still allowing us to reuse the same workflow for candidates who need to be invited to another interview date. I realize there may be more involved from a programming and workflow perspective than meets the eye, but I wanted to share the use case and an example of how I envision it working. This will be a major time saver for my organization, and likely for other similar manufacturing/logistics organizations. I've included our current interview template below in case it is helpful.
