Scheduling Keywords can be created within Admin > Interviews and Scheduling > Scheduling Keywords. When setting up your scheduling keywords, you can assign them to one of two different categories.
1) Free If these keywords are detected in a calendar event title, candidates will be able to schedule interviews over this event when booking via a direct booking link. When manually scheduling using Quick Schedule, interviews booked over or overlapping these events will not be counted as a scheduling conflict.
2) Soft Conflicts: Calendar events with these keywords in the event title can’t be booked over by candidates booking with a direct booking link. If scheduling an interview using Quick Schedule, any interviews that overlap with these events will be seen as a soft conflict.
Click in the New keyword… field, type in your keyword and then click the + icon to add the keyword to the list. Keywords are not case sensitive but any spaces or special characters will be respected. Please note: You cannot add the same keyword to both the Free and Soft Conflict lists.
Free Scheduling Keywords
When using Quick Schedule to book in interviews, any calendar events with titles that contain any scheduling keywords in the Free category will show up in light purple.
When scheduling over that event, the interviewer will show as available. Here is an example where ‘Quick sync’ is a scheduling keyword that has been added in the Free category.
