🔎 Troubleshooting Common Issues
| What might be wrong | How to fix it |
|---|---|
| Reminder rules not configured: The workflow may not have reminders enabled or set up for this interview type. | Go to the workflow settings and confirm that reminders are enabled. Check that the correct timing (e.g., 24 hours / 1 hour before interview) has been configured. |
| Candidate/Interviewer RSVP status | Check RSVP status in the interview details. Reminders are only sent to participants who have marked themselves as Tentative or have not RSVP-ed to the invite |
| Communication channel restrictions: SMS or email reminders may fail due to invalid contact details or blocked domains. | Confirm that candidate and interviewer emails/phone numbers are correct. Ask recipients to check spam/junk folders or SMS delivery status. |
| System outage or delay: Rarely, delays in Talview’s notification service or external providers (email/SMS gateway) may affect delivery. | Check Talview’s status page or contact support if multiple users report missing reminders. |
| Opt-out or DND enabled: For SMS reminders, recipients who opted out or have DND (Do Not Disturb) settings may not receive reminders. | Confirm with recipients if they have opted out. Suggest using an alternate channel (e.g., email). |
