Introducing calendar integration: Seamless, automated interview scheduling

Candidate Experience

We’re thrilled to announce our new calendar integration with Occupop to help hiring managers when it comes to a straightforward, but often time-consuming task; scheduling interviews. 

In today’s job market, hiring the best people has become more competitive than ever, and providing candidates with a personalised and seamless experience is key to keeping them engaged throughout the hiring process. Creating a great candidate experience can be challenging when hiring managers are true multi-taskers —you are involved in recruiting, consulting, giving feedback, reviewing applications and scheduling candidates, all in a timely manner. This often leaves the overall candidate experience taking a backseat to more high priority activities, like filling more urgent roles and actioning reporting commitments to stakeholders.


That’s why at Occupop it's our focus to continue to add product features that help you say goodbye to time-consuming HR tasks. With our new calendar integration, you can now;


  • Invite multiple hiring team users without calendar clashes
  • Automated real-time interview scheduling
  • Schedule interviews on behalf of hiring managers
  • Enable quicker scheduling with draggable calendar view
  • Mark ‘no show’ interviews as not attended
  • Improved usability for managing and cancelling interviews


Our master and custom plans benefit from calendar integrations with Google, Office365, Outlook,and Microsoft exchange.


Get back your time

By saving time with our quick scheduling and draggable calendar view, and multiple user invitations directly within Occupop, you can get precious time back that you would’ve spent trying to sync calendars manually via emails or phone discussions. That time back can be redirected to valuable tasks like nurturing candidates in your talent pool, producing data-backed reports, and evaluating your team’s performance.


Meet your candidates faster 

Take out the worry of double bookings, or the back-and-forth to schedule interviews through our automated real-time interview scheduling. With this feature you can define multiple time slots dedicated to interviews in your calendar, share with candidates and let them self-schedule a time that works for them based on your availability. Invite multiple members of the hiring team to join thanks to calendar matching. Your schedule gets updated in real-time and all parties get notified as soon as a meeting is confirmed, rescheduled or cancelled. 

Put candidate experience first

Unnecessary back-and-forth communications when calendars and meetings change, can undermine the candidate experience and employer brand your company is working hard to build. We now have improved usability for managing and cancelling interviews, that eliminates the back-and-forth and keeps the hiring process moving forward, helping to build trust and keep the candidate engaged.

Accelerate the hiring process

Everyone is perpetually busy, and none more so that those working in the HR function. When it comes to interviewing, candidates may be juggling responsibilities in their current job with trying to carve out time to search and interview for their next professional move. This calendar integration allows recruiting teams to coordinate early stage interviews with candidates faster than before, moving them through the hiring pipeline efficiently. This helps close the interview loop quicker, ultimately helping you hire the best people, faster.
