If you select Manual Scheduling when scheduling a candidate interview, the following fields are displayed in the Schedule Interview dialog box:

Manual Scheduling fields
Field Configuration

Date

Enter a date for the interview.

Interviewers

Select the users who will be responsible for interviewing the candidate. The hiring manager, recruiter, and any additional users who were assigned to the job requisition are included by default. If needed, you can remove them from this field by clicking the X next to their name.

Locations

(Optional) Select a location for the interview. This drop-down list displays the meeting rooms that were configured for your organization with your email client. If there are no meeting rooms configured, this drop-down list isn’t enabled.

Remote Meeting

(Optional) You can select a virtual meeting using either of the following options depending on your calendar provider: 

  • Remote (Google Meet)
  • Remote (Microsoft Teams)

The virtual meeting link is included in the email sent to the candidate and the interviewers.

Interval Length

Select whether the time intervals you can select in the Scheduling control are 15 minutes or 30 minutes long.

Scheduling (control)

After you configure the Date, Interviewers, and Location fields, Dayforce populates the scheduling control with the free/busy calendar information for each interviewer and for the selected meeting room.

In the scheduling control, specify the interview time slots for each interviewer and for the meeting room (if one is selected) using one of the following methods:

  • Click individual time segments.
  • Click a time segment and then hold and drag the cursor to select multiple segments. When using this method, you can drag the cursor left, right, up, and down to select the time segments for one or multiple interviewers in the control.

The selected time slots are displayed in the Selected Time Slots list to the right of the control. This list includes the names of the selected interviewers and the meeting rooms (if used) for each time slot. If needed, you can remove an interviewer from a time slot by clicking the selected time segment again in the scheduling control. You can also hover the cursor over the time slot in the Selected Time Slots list, and then clicking the displayed delete button to remove the whole time slot.
