Advanced interview scheduling
Advanced interview scheduling is available only to multi-tenant customers in Talent Acquisition. Before recruiters and hiring managers use the advanced interview scheduling, recruiting administrators must enable the configurable hiring workflow and create a workflow.
See Enabling configurable hiring workflow and Creating a workflow.
These calendar platforms are supported:
- On-premises and Cloud
- Microsoft Outlook
- Microsoft Office 365
- Microsoft Exchange
- Apple iCloud
Recruiters and hiring managers can use advanced interview scheduling to minimize the number of individual interview reminders.
First, recruiting administrators add the API suite of the calendar platform in Infor API Gateway and configure advanced interview scheduling. Then, recruiters and hiring managers can synchronize and update calendar invites from different calendar platforms in real time through Cronofy.
See information about adding a new custom or non-Infor API suite in the Infor API Gateway Administration Guide.
Using the advanced interview scheduling, recruiters can view the real-time availability of interview team members. Before their real-time availability for an interview is available to recruiters, the interview team must share their calendars with the system in
.When updates are made to the shared calendar, the system is notified through Cronofy using the callback URL that the recruiting administrators configure for advanced interview scheduling.
The Application Key and Application Secret are used to enable communication between your organization and Cronofy, the calendar connecting service. The Application Key is used to identify your organization to the service using a public key. The Application Secret is used to identify your organization to the service using a private key. The Application Secret key is encrypted. After recruiter administrators configure the advanced interview scheduling, the Application Key and Application Secret are provided by the service and generated automatically. When required, recruiter administrators can specify the sign-in credentials of Cronofy manually.
See Configuring advanced interview scheduling.
In advanced interview scheduling, the application is verified by the calendar connecting service.
To allow list of URLs that are redirected to Infor when a calendar is shared and to move an application to production mode, a web service call is enabled.
After recruiter administrators configure the advanced interview scheduling, verification is automatically performed when an application's credentials are auto-generated. If this process is not completed successfully, a yellow warning box is displayed during the sharing of a calendar that reads: Warning! This application has not been verified.
If auto-generation of credentials is bypassed for any reason, the Verify Interview
Scheduling Application action is taken on the
