Improved Interface for Event Topics

We have made it easier than ever to add or adjust the candidate-facing event titles (aka $event.topic) in your interview templates.

Why this is awesome: Event Topics are used in Request Availability, Candidate Portal, candidate itineraries and calendar events. Setting them up helps candidates have the best experience possible.

Interview Level Detail on Core Reports

Last month we introduced the ability to drill down the Cancelation & Reschedule Reasons Report to each specific interview and immediately it was requested for other reports in Data & Insights. Today we can announce it’s available in all core reports!

Why this is awesome: Being able to see the exact interviews that build up the data helps to both explain the aggregate sums at a macro level, but also improve issues on a micro level.

The interview drawer has been updated to include an easy access link to the Interviewer Portal as well as improved handling of the Request Availability & Candidate Portal links.

Why this is awesome: This simple but effective update makes it saves you time in accessing crucial information and increases your ability to quality check what your candidates and interviewers are experiencing.

Logic to Request Forms

Create sections to display different sets of questions based on previously answered questions.

Why this is awesome: Add advanced logic to your scheduling request forms.  This allows you to have a robust form that changes questions/answers based on the inputs from recruiters!
