Interviewers often need quick access to candidate resumes before conducting interviews, whether the session is online or in-person. With the Resume Access via Interview Invite capability, interviewers can now directly view candidate resumes from their email invite without needing to log in separately to Workflow Tools. This feature ensures that authorized interviewers (both internal and external participants) can conveniently access resumes in a secure, permission-controlled manner across desktop and mobile devices.

Steps to Go Through the Flow

1. Open the Interview Invite Email
  • As an interviewer, check your inbox for the interview invite email sent from Talview.
  • The email contains details like interview date, time, mode (online/in-person), and candidate information.
2. Locate the “Resume” Link
  • Within the email body, beside the candidate’s name locate the resume link and click the “Resume” link.
  • This link appears for both online and in-person interviews - provided the candidate has uploaded a resume.
3. Accessing the Resume
  • When you click Resume, a new browser tab will open displaying the candidate’s resume.
  • If you are an assigned participant in the interview:
    • The resume will load in a secure Talview Resume Viewer.
    • You can zoom in/out for better readability or download the file for offline reference.
  • If you are not a participant in the interview:
    • You’ll see an error message stating that you don’t have permission to view the resume.
4. Viewing the Resume on Mobile
  • Resume access works seamlessly on mobile browsers as well.
  • Tap the Resume link in your invite email to open the document in a new tab.
  • The same zoom and download controls are available on mobile for a consistent viewing experience.
5. Resume Viewer Options
  • Once the resume opens in the viewer, you can:
    • Zoom In/Out – Use the toolbar or pinch gestures (on mobile) to adjust readability.
    • Download – Click the download icon to save a copy for offline use.

Note:

  • Only assigned interview participants can access the candidate resume through this link.
  • Users who are not part of the scheduled interview will see an authorization message upon clicking the resume.
  • Resume access links work from both mobile and web browsers.
  • This ensures secure sharing of candidate information while maintaining data privacy and compliance.
