When an interviewer sends a self-schedule request, candidates can quickly complete it using the self-schedule link in their invitation email. If enabled, candidates can re-schedule their interview through their interview reminder email.
This article covers the candidate's experience when completing a self-schedule request. For more information on sending a self-schedule request to a candidate, click here.
Note: Self-scheduled interviews are different than availability requests through Google Calendar or Outlook 365. During availability requests, you can select multiple times that the interviewer can use to coordinate interviews. When self-scheduling an interview, you are selecting a single time to be added to the interviewer's schedule.
Self-schedule an interview
To complete a self-schedule request, open your request email and click the self-schedule link.
Select a date on the calendar and choose an option from the list of available times.
Note:
- Interviews can be scheduled up to 30 days in the future.
- The candidate can choose from availability based on the interviewer's current availability on their Google Calendar or Outlook 365 calendar.
- Available times are business hours, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, based on the interviewer's timezone.
- Candidates cannot self-schedule an interview for the same day.
To view available times in your own time zone, select from the dropdown menu under the calendar.
When you finish, click the button in the bottom right corner of the page. Depending on whether your organization has enabled DE&I interviewing features, either the Next or Submit button will display.
Click Next to proceed to the Provide some additional details page.
Click Submit to complete your self-schedule request.
Provide additional details
If an organization has enabled inclusion interviewing features, click Next and go to the Provide some additional details page. On this page, you'll have the option to record the pronunciation of your name and select your personal pronouns.

If this is your first time recording in Greenhouse Recruiting, you may need to click Allow to give Greenhouse permission to their microphone.
To remove or re-do a recording, click the Delete icon.
Select your pronouns
You can also select their personal pronouns using the available options. If none of the options apply, selecting Prefer to self-describe shows a free-text field where other options can be entered.
When you finish, click Submit.
When the request finishes, a confirmation email will be sent to the same address that received the self-schedule link. If you lose the confirmation or do not receive the email, go back to the self-schedule request link and click Resend Confirmation Email.
