What it does

What Scheduler does

  • 01

    Calendar coordination

    Scans availability across every interviewer's calendar at once and books a slot that works for the whole panel, with no email chain.

  • 02

    Time-zone-aware ranking

    Ranks candidate slots by fit across time zones, so the best option is offered first.

  • 03

    Panel availability

    Treats a panel as one booking: it looks for a time when every required interviewer is free.

  • 04

    Rescheduling

    When someone moves, the slot is found again and everyone is told, without a recruiter re-running the search.

  • 05

    Reminders and no-show recovery

    Sends reminders at 24 hours and 1 hour, and follows up if a candidate misses the slot.
