Interview Fields

The Hiring Manager Note field is used to capture a brief note from the hiring manager to tell the interviewers about what they are looking for in a candidate. Once the field is configured and properly permissioned in JRDM, it is available on the job requisition. An example of a Hiring Manager Note field definition is as follows:

Code Snippet

12345678910
<field-definition id="hiringManagerNote" type="multiattachment" required="false" custom="true">
<field-label><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]></field label>
<field-label lang="de_DE"><![CDATA[Kommentar]]</field-label>
<field-label lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]</field-label>
<field-label lang="en_US"><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]</field-label>
<field-description><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]></field description>
<field-description lang="de_DE"><![CDATA[Bitte weiteren Kommentar eingeben]]</field-description>
<field-description lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]</field-description>
<field-description lang="en_US"><![CDATA[Hiring Manager Note]]</field-description>
</field-definition>

The Interview Guide Field

The Interview Guide attachment can contain the basic instructions, tips, and tricks on how to run the interview, such as the basic questions to ask. Once the field is configured and properly permissioned in JRDM, it is available on the job requisition. An example of an Interview Guide field definition is as follows:

Code Snippet

123
<field-definition id="InterviewGuide" type="multiattachment" required="false" custom="false">
<field-label mime-type="text-plain"><![CDATA[Interview Guide Documents]]></field-label>
<field-description><![CDATA[Interview Guide Documents]]></field-definition>

Once interviewers are added, the list is available from the applicant view.
There is no Microsoft Outlook integration for these types of interview settings. The Outlook integration is only available if a customer uses the Interview Scheduling feature.

Candidate in Interview Status

For most clients, there is an Interview status and that is the status used to add the interviewers. However, the customer can choose any label for the status, and the interview feature can to be used with multiple statuses (see the Feature Permissions topic). The person changing the candidate status to Interview requires the permission to change candidate status. Remember, the candidate status set is configured through Admin Center → Manage Recruiting → Edit Applicant Status Configuration. Within the Interview status, the roles that have access to change statuses should be checked under the Selectable by section.

The candidate must be advanced or moved to the status within the JRDM to support Interview Assessments.

Interview status of candidates is displayed.

Interviewer Setup From the Applicant View

In the Interviewers portlet, select Set up Interviewers.

Note

It is possible to send an SMS notification to the candidate before the interview. For details, refer to the Implementation Guide.

Select Set up Interviewers in the Interviewers portlet.

How to Add Interviewers

To select the people to be included among interviewers, complete the following process:

To add interviewers, click Add.
Enter the name.
Add notes about the candidates.
Use the same list for this candidate or apply the same list to all applicants.
Choose to attach the resume or not.
Review the attached Interview Guide.
Review the Hiring Manager Note.
Choose to attach the cover letter or not.
Save the interviewer list or send an email.

The Same as Last Time option for Interviewers is a feature that is automatically available to all clients. When adding a second candidate to a requisition, the Same as Last Time option appears next to Add Interviewers, allowing you to apply the same interview team previously added for candidates on that requisition.

Interview Scheduling for Candidates

Access the Interview Scheduling tab from the job requisitions list page.

Scheduling the Interview for Candidates

Complete the following process:

Locate the job requisition requiring a scheduled interview.
Click the not started button to view the candidates in an interview step awaiting an interview.
Select the candidate that you need to schedule by using the information on the candidate card and select Start Scheduling.
Define the Interview Title. This will default to the interview step name from Talent Pipeline.
Define the type of the interview and of relevant add the location. If a new face-to-face location is necessary that is not in the picklist in Admin, the organizer can type the location in by selecting Add new. This will not add a new location to picklist, or enable the user to use this location again later.
Add the interviewers by the user lookup, or by their Recruiting Role on the requisition. It is not possible to add the same user twice.
Recruiters can schedule interviews that cross midnight in their own time zone. For example, recruiters working at a large corporation’s shared service centers can be based in Asia/Pacific are able to set up interviews to occur in Europe without any restrictions.
Note
If you add more than one interviewer, the interviewer will become a panel-style interview where all interviewers are required to interview the candidate at the same time. The default interview duration is 30 minutes.
Browse the availability for the interviewers by clicking Find Availability. All of the available times that fit the interview criteria will be shown in the Availability Grid.
A slot will be shown in light gray if it has already been sent out for another interview. This means it is possible that the slot might become booked. Dark gray means the slot is fully available. Blue are slots that have been selected or sent already.
Select the time slots and send to candidate. If booking a group candidate interview, choose how many candidates can book the same slot. The text underneath the Availability Grid will tell you how many slots are needed to book all candidates.
Once you have selected enough slots, click Continue to finish.
Choose a method to contact the candidate about interview: email, SMS, or both.
1. Select the language and template.
2. Add any attachments, if required.
3. If you don’t want to contact candidates at all, click Skip Email.

Candidate View

A tab has been added to the Careers Site where candidates manage all activities related to the scheduling of their upcoming interviews.

Confirmation of a Single Slot

Confirming a single slot means that organizers can send an email one time and have candidates log in and confirm or decline if they want to by choosing one slot and by not selecting Book this slot for candidates. Candidates will see the time and date of the interview with a link to confirm or decline.

Confirm Decline option is highlighted. Confirming one slot allows candidates to accept or decline via email.

An example of this is shown in the figure shown above.

Self-scheduling Interviews

If the organizer sends candidates multiple slots on an interview schedule, the candidate can use the self-scheduling method to schedule the interview. The candidate clicks the URL provided in the email, views the slots remaining, and can choose the preferred one.

My Calendar for Interviewers

The My Calendar tab is where interviewers can manually enter their availability for conducting interviews and is only available if the Outlook integration is not being used. Interviewers can also see all their booked interviews on their calendar and cancel them. If interviewers have not entered availability manually in the calendar, organizers will only be able to schedule interviews using Custom Slots.

Adding the Availability into a Calendar

Adding and editing calendars is available for interviewers. Interviewers are required to add their availability to their calendar in SAP SuccessFactors to provide their preferred times. Interviewers can enter available times in 15-minute intervals as a one-time occurrence or on a recurring basis. When availability is added, it is shown in the interviewers’ People Profile time zone. The time zone is shown on the calendar view for the interviewer. If the time zone is incorrect, the user should update it, or contact their system administrator if they do not have permission to do so.

If an interviewer’s availability changes after it is entered, they can delete it. If the time slot was already sent out to candidates, it will be removed from the candidates’ available slot options and from the interview setup view for the organizer. If a candidate has booked an interview during a time the interviewer wants to edit or remove the meeting, the interviewer will be warned that a candidate’s interview will be affected. If they choose to continue, the candidate’s status will change to not booked for that interview and the Cancel Interview Notification email will be sent to the candidate to advise them.

Availability

Availability from Outlook is captured in the People Profile time zone of the interviewer; availability is displayed for the logged-in organizer in the organizer’s time zone as well. It is important that both employees’ time zones are set properly in SAP SuccessFactors to reflect the correct availability.

If users frequently need to conduct interviews while they are traveling to other time zones, it is recommended that employees be given write permission to the People Profile time zone field so they can update it if they change their computer or Outlook time. Work hours come from users’ personal preferences in Exchange. If users do not have work hours set in Exchange, SAP SuccessFactors will default 9:00 am to 5:00 pm for that user. Interviews can still be scheduling outside of working hours using custom slots functionality.

Interview Meeting Invitation

When an interview is booked, the content of the Interview Confirmation to Interviewers email trigger will be sent as an Outlook meeting invitation. One meeting invitation will go from the service account to each interviewer on the interview only.

Meeting invitations are not sent to candidates. Candidates will receive email communication of their interview times.

The organizer is included as an optional recipient on the meeting invite. An organizer is not shown as an interviewer on the interview or in Interview Central. Organizers will also have all the appointments on their calendars and they can forward them back to recipients if they lose or delete their original invitation.

Interviewer Response (Accepting or Declining)

Interviewers can respond to the meeting invitation just like any other Outlook invitation with "Accept", "Decline" or "Tentative". When the Outlook integration enabled, interviewers must decline an interview if they want to cancel it. Interviewers cannot cancel the interview from the My Calendar tab in SAP SuccessFactors. The organizer can then choose to rebook the candidate or let the interview go ahead with another interviewer (outside the system).

The following steps are not supported:

Proposing a new time
Note
If an interviewer attempts to propose a new time, those comments will not be sent back to the organizer.
Swapping interviewers in the system once the invitation has been sent

To view responses for a particular interview, proceed as follows:

Select the candidates in Booked.
A loading icon appears until the Interviewer status is determined.
Locate the candidate interview you want to check responses for by clicking to the right page.
If interviewers do not send a response when they respond, the card will show no response, which is blank.

Interview Setup

Interviewers can set up:

Directly in the relevant status in the candidate pipeline
By using the Interview Scheduling feature
You can use only one of the options to set up interviewers at the same time.

A prerequisite is that features permissions must be enabled in JRDM XML for the appropriate operators in the desired statuses (one feature-permission block per status).

Code Snippet

1234567
<feature-permission type="InterviewAssessment">
<description><![CDATA[description]]></description>
<role-name><![CDATA[S]]></role-name>
<role-name><![CDATA[T]]></role-name>
<role-name><![CDATA[R]]></role-name>
<role-name><![CDATA[G]]></role-name>
<status><![CDATA[Interview]]></status> </feature-permission>

The client might want to have this permission set in the interview status or statuses and all statuses beyond the interview because there is no difference between the access for interview setup and the access for interview results.

Interview Scheduling

The Interview Scheduling tool helps simplify and expedite the interview scheduling process.

Note

This training material covers only basic functionality settings. Detailed descriptions can be found in a document that can be downloaded from the Customer Community.

Basic facts:

Using Interview Scheduling, individuals responsible for arranging interviews can access availability for interviewers and propose times to candidate, who can then reserve a time that works for them.
Organizers can send candidate a time if they do not want candidate to schedule themselves. Interviewers and a candidates can decline or reschedule if that time no longer works for them.
Candidates can request additional times from the Organizer if they cannot find a time that works.

Prerequisites:

The v12 career site must be enabled. To enable the career site, navigate to Admin Center → Recruiting → Manage Recruiting Sites and select the option for Enable V12 External Career Site.
If using Data Retention Management (DRM) or a Data Privacy Consent Statement, ensure that version 2 is being used for both.
For interviews that have been booked, or are marked as not yet booked, organizers can make necessary updates or changes to the interview, including adding or delete interviewers, modifying the interview location, interview type, interview date, time slots, or interview duration.

Interview Scheduling Configuration

Other configuration options must be set up before enabling Interview Scheduling, including the following:

Determine picklist values that will be used for a virtual interview location and a face-to-face interview location.
Enable the Interview Scheduling functionality by navigating to Admin Center → Manage Recruiting Settings..
Manage Recruiting Email Triggers: Set up the required email templates.
Recruiting Permission: Enable calendar for interviewers.
Grant permission for the Interview Scheduling tab:
1. For the Organizer: Navigate to Admin Center → Recruiting Permissions → Enable Interview Scheduling Permissions. This option gives the user access to the job requisition link on the Interview Scheduling tab and access to schedule candidates.
2. For the Interviewers: If the Outlook integration is not being used, the Calendar permission should be granted to any known interviewers by using Recruiting Permissions → Enable Calendar.

Granting Calendar Permissions

It is not necessary to permission every possible interviewer, any interviewer who is left off the permissions will be given access to the table if they are added to an interview and the interview is saved.

Recruiting Permissions from the User Permissions menu is highlighted. Select the Enable Calender checkbox.

Caution

Once Interview Scheduling is enabled in the Admin Center, it is not possible to add interviewers through the application details section.

Outlook Integration

The Outlook integration is configured in Admin Center as follows:

Grant permission to Admins by selecting Manage Interview Scheduling Outlook Integration.
Navigate to the Interview Scheduling Outlook Integration admin tool, enter the credentials, and verify the connection.
Select the checkbox to establish the Outlook integration and click Save.
Note
Clicking Verify will display a green success message or a red error message.
If red is seen you will not be able to enable the integration until the errors are resolved.

Outlook Meeting Invitation

The Outlook integration is optional and can be fully configured in Admin by customers. If the Outlook integration is enabled, all interviewer availability will be retrieved from Outlook when the organizer searches for availability.

When an interview is booked, interviewers will be sent a calendar invitation to their Outlook email address. Interviewers can accept, decline, or respond tentatively and their status will be shown in SAP SuccessFactors when the organizer clicks on Booked candidates with the Dashboard.

It is also possible to upload meeting rooms with details into SAP SuccessFactors Admin. Interview organizers can view meeting room availability for their interview slots in Interview Scheduling and can book meeting rooms for an interview. Organizers can change meeting rooms if conflicts occur, or the room needs to be changed.

Jobs can be scheduled to retrieve interviewer and room statuses periodically when the organizer selects candidates who are Booked. The job runs every four hours from when the Outlook integration is enabled in Admin.

Clients can configure an email to go to all of the assigned organizers for an interview each time an interviewer or room responds to an interview meeting request, including the respondent's name and the response (accepted, tentative, or declined).

Prerequisites include the following:

Interview Scheduling must be configured first.
User’s calendars must allow access to the service account for Free/Busy time permission or greater, which can be accomplished by configuring system default settings.

Configuration

Configuration for the Outlook integration includes the following steps:

An OAuth configuration has been created for the connection between the SAP SuccessFactors system and Microsoft 365.
