As an interviewer, you can view your schedule, join interviews, mark attendance, and complete evaluations - all from one interface. This FAQ covers everything you need to know about managing your activities within a drive, including how to view your interviews, handle no-shows, update availability, and complete post-interview actions. *** ## 1. Drive Assignments & Scheduling **Q1. How will I know if I’m added or removed from a drive?** When you’re added to a drive, you’ll receive an **email notification** containing the drive name, date, and your assigned slots. If you’re removed, you’ll receive a **removal confirmation**. Once removed, you’ll stop receiving all future updates and notifications related to that drive. **Q2. How do I update my availability if I can’t attend a scheduled drive?** If you’re unable to attend the drive or specific time slots: * Inform your **Recruiter** or **Drive Coordinator** as soon as possible. * They can reassign your slots to another interviewer. If you have partial availability, communicate your preferred time window so the schedule can be adjusted accordingly. **Q3. Where can I see all my scheduled interviews in a drive?** You can view your assigned interviews under the **Interviews** or **My Schedule** tab within the drive. Each entry displays: * Candidate name * Interview time and mode (in-person or virtual) * Assigned room or link * Status (Scheduled, Completed, No-Show) Use filters to sort by **status**, **candidate**, or **time** for easier navigation. **Q4. Can I see candidate profiles before the interview starts?** Candidates are assigned dynamically based on their wait times. Hence, showing the profiles beforehand is not possible. **Q5. Can I join an interview directly from the drive?** Yes. Once the drive starts, the **Join** button becomes active next to each assigned interview slot. Click **Join** to start the session from within the Drive Dashboard. Ensure your **camera, microphone, and browser permissions** are enabled before joining. **Q6. What should I do if I need a short break during back-to-back drive interviews?** If you need a short break: * Inform the **Drive Coordinator** or **Recruiter** so they can pause or adjust the candidate flow. * Simply click **Join** again when you’re ready for the next interview. Avoid leaving sessions unattended, as it may delay subsequent interviews. **Q7. What happens if I accidentally miss joining a drive interview?** If you miss an interview slot: * Notify your **Recruiter** immediately so they can reassign the candidate or reschedule the session. Repeated missed joins may impact scheduling in future drives. **Q8. What should I do if a candidate doesn’t join on time?** If a candidate hasn’t joined within **5 minutes** of the scheduled start time: * You can **end the session** and return to your drive dashboard. * The system will automatically mark the candidate as a **No-Show** and notify the recruiter. You can then proceed to your next assigned slot. **Q9. Who gets notified if a candidate or interviewer is a no-show?** If a **candidate** is marked as a no-show, the recruiter receives an automated notification. If an **interviewer** doesn’t join, the recruiter is alerted, and a **backup interviewer** may be assigned. Both scenarios are tracked in the **Drive Insights Dashboard** for visibility. *** ## 2. Evaluation & Feedback **Q10. Will I automatically be added as an evaluator for candidates I interview?** Yes. Once you complete an interview, you are automatically assigned as the **evaluator** for that candidate. You’ll receive an **evaluation form link** via email and can also access it under the **Evaluations** tab in Workflow Tools. **Q11. Can I update my evaluation after submitting it in the drive?** Editing permissions depend on your organization’s settings. If allowed: * Navigate to the candidate’s evaluation and click **Edit Evaluation** to update your feedback. Otherwise, contact your **Recruiter** to reopen your evaluation form. **Q12. What’s the deadline for submitting my evaluations in a drive?** Submit your evaluations **within 24 hours** of completing the interview. Timely submission ensures smooth candidate progression and accurate reporting for drive analytics. **Q13. Can I view my interview history for completed drives?** Yes. Go to the **Interviews** section under your interviewer dashboard. Here, you can view: * Previously completed interviews in the drive * Candidate names * Evaluation status (Submitted/Pending) * Session outcomes (Attended/No-Show) This provides a record of your participation and feedback. *** ## **3. Notifications & Communication** **Q14. Do I continue to receive notifications after being removed from a drive?** No. Once removed from a drive, you’ll stop receiving all related notifications, reminders, and updates. However, your previous interviews and evaluations remain visible in your completed drive records. **Q15. Will I get reminders for my upcoming interviews during a drive?** Currently, **no automated reminders** are sent for drive interviews. Please monitor your **Drive Dashboard** or **calendar invite** to stay updated on upcoming sessions. **Q16. Can I communicate directly with the recruiter or coordinator during a drive?** Yes. You can contact the recruiter via **email** or **internal chat** as per your organization’s communication process. For urgent updates (like a no-show or technical issue), use the **Notify Recruiter** or **Report Issue** option in the drive interface (if available). *** ## **4. Technical & Access Support** **Q17. What should I do if I face technical issues during a drive interview?** If you experience connectivity, audio, or video issues: * Refresh or rejoin using the same **Join Interview** link. * Use **Google Chrome** or **Microsoft Edge** for best performance. * Check that your **camera/mic permissions** are enabled. If the problem continues, contact **Talview Support** via the **Help** option, and notify your recruiter. **Q18. Can I access drive details or join interviews from my mobile device?** Yes, but desktop or laptop access is recommended for stability. If joining from a mobile browser: * Ensure your **camera and microphone** permissions are allowed. * Maintain a stable network connection. Some advanced features (like editing evaluations) may not be supported on mobile.
