You can now request an interview with candidates and request multiple interview rounds through the Clora Marketplace! We will highlight how this works below.

Requesting an Interview

Navigate to your candidate proposal and click on Schedule Interview.

The scheduling tool will open and you will be prompted to indicate your team’s timezone.

Once you select a timezone, you will be asked to enter at least 2 windows of availability.

You can add more slots as well if applicable.

Once you have entered at least 2 windows of availability, you can now let Clora know who will be participating in this interview round. Clora will ensure that the colleagues you indicate get included in the meeting invite.

If colleagues are not already part of Clora, you can still invite coworkers via email. We will make sure they get an invite and are also included in the confirmed meeting invitation.

Once you have finalized your team’s availability and the coworkers who will be participating, hit “Send Availability.”

What to expect after submitting availability

Upon your submission, the candidate will immediately be notified and prompted to confirm a 30-minute interview slot that works for them.

Your dedicated Clora Account Manager will keep you in the loop! You can also check the status on the Marketplace at any time.

Your pending interview request can be tracked by you and your colleagues in two places:

On the candidate proposal

The candidate’s proposal view will be updated, so you can find all confirmed upcoming AND pending interviews requested here.

Under My Interviews

You will find a new item in your top bar called My Interviews

This will take you to a listing of all interviews grouped by status. For unconfirmed interviews, select Pending.

Pending interviews will be sorted by the date requested. You can click into any of them.

Editing a Pending Interview

If the interview has yet to be confirmed by the candidate, you will have the opportunity to edit your interview request including adding, editing, and/or deleting availability windows. From the candidate proposal or the pending interviews under My Interviews, open the pending interview and click Edit

From My Interviews

Click on My Interviews from your top navigation menu bar

This will take you to a listing of all interviews grouped by status. For unconfirmed interviews, select Pending.

Find the pending interview you would like to edit.

Once you make changes, you can submit.

TIP - You can send updated email notifications to the colleagues participating in this interview to keep them in the loop OR you can choose to skip this step!

Once the candidate has confirmed a 30-minute interview slot, you and coworkers participating in this interview round will receive a notification from the Marketplace and your dedicated Account Manager with conference details.

Rescheduling an Upcoming Interview

We understand that conflicts can arise for you or your colleagues. If you need to reschedule an upcoming interview, you can cancel and indicate new times that work for you and your colleagues.

From Candidate Proposal

All interviews will be grouped on the left side of the proposal. Click on the upcoming interview of interest.

You will receive confirmation. From there you can reschedule from the confirmation message OR from the Schedule Interview button at the top.

Schedule Another Interview Round

We understand that you may need multiple interview rounds with various colleagues and stakeholders on your team. You can schedule multiple interview rounds within Clora’s Marketplace.

Navigate to your candidate proposal and click on Schedule Interview.

You will be prompted to provide new windows of availability and add participating coworkers once again for the next interview round.

You can expect the same process for all subsequent rounds.

Once you and your coworkers have narrowed down candidates, remember to return to your candidate’s proposal and click on Hire!
