External job board UI updates
Released a completely overhauled experience for external job boards to allow organizations easier control over job board styling and functionality:

New essential reports for scheduling activity
A new essential report, Scheduling Activity, provides organizations with a high-level view of interviews created, scheduled, pending, or completed in a specific time range.
Reschedule self-scheduled interviews
A new setting has been added under Configure > Permissions that allows candidates to reschedule self-scheduled interviews up to 24 hours before the scheduled interview time.
Once the setting is turned on, add the {{INTERVIEW_RESCHEDULE_LINK}} token to the Candidate Interview Confirmation template to give candidates access to the new link.
Note: Candidate self-scheduling is only available to Advanced and Expert tier customers.

The following tokens have been added to the DocuSign integration and can be used in templates:
- Single-line text inputs for candidates
- Single-line text inputs for company counter signers
