Scheduling a meeting in Recruit CRM 🗓️


Scheduling a meeting and notifying attendees is easy with Recruit CRM. To create a new meeting:

1. Go to the candidate/contact/job/company profile.


2. You can schedule a meeting in 2 ways on the same page. One is through the Right chart panel and another one is under the Assigned Jobs, beside the jobs you have assigned them to (shown below):

3. Click on the Schedule Meeting button, fill in all the required information on the meeting card, and click on the "Add" button to create the meeting.

Note: Once you've connected your Google/Outlook calendar to Recruit CRM, clicking on the "Add" button will automatically send calendar invites to all attendees on their calendars (provided you have their email IDs).

However, in certain situations, such as when the invitee has an Outlook calendar while you have a Gmail calendar, the invite may not appear automatically on their calendar. In such cases, they can use the 'Add to Calendar' button provided in the email they receive.

You can connect your calendar from Calendar Settings.

If you don't wish to send calendar invites, you can select the checkbox at the end of the page.

This option will prevent the system from sending calendar invitations and reminders to individuals listed in the Attendees and Related To sections.

Meeting Card:


After you click on "Add" meeting, we also give you an optional prompt to send an email to attendees with the meeting card as shown below:

You can choose whether you wish to send the email to the attendees or not.

Note: If you have selected the Do not send calendar invites checkbox, the system will not display the email meeting template.

Another way to schedule a Meeting / Interview:


  • Go to a specific job

  • Scroll down till you find the list of candidates

  • Look for a candidate who is in the hiring stage

  • Click on the Schedule Meeting button on the candidate card
