In Admin > Interviews & Scheduling > Meetings & Time Zone, you can set the meeting hours for the company as a whole.

If personal meeting hours or hours for the interview schedule activity have not been set, the hours listed here will show as the interviewer’s availability. Events marked as busy on the interviewer’s Google calendar will be taken into account when showing their availability.

How do meeting hours work with interviewer timezones?

Meeting hours will show in the interviewer’s time zone, so if your interviewer is in MDT and the company meeting hours are set from 9:00am-5:00pm, this would be reflected as 9:00am-5:00pm MDT for that interviewer (provided they have not set their own personal meeting hours).

Set Personal Meeting Hours

https://www.loom.com/share/be57ed984a404c83bddc1f0b9d019609

Each user can set their own personal meeting hours by heading to Personal Settings > *Meeting Hours.* They can check the ‘Enable Custom Hours?’ checkbox and then set the hours they are available.

Meeting hours set here will override the availability set for company meeting hours if the user is specified as an interviewer. Conflicts on the user’s Google calendar will be taken into account when showing the interviewer’s availability.
