In Teamtailor you can schedule video meetings with candidates directly in the platform without using any external software. In this article, you will learn how to create a video meeting, as well as how this will look from both your and your participants' end.

To schedule a meeting with a candidate, click Book meeting in the action bar found on the candidate card.

Start by filling out the information about the upcoming meeting and the meeting invitation message for the candidate.

In the Location field, select the video service you'd like to use from the Remote section. Our built-in video service is always available for use, but you can also connect an external video service you are using. More on that here.

You can also send an email reminder to the candidate 24 hours before the event. This can be activated in the Reminders section:

All meeting participants will have access to a unique link where the video meeting will be held.

On the candidate card under the Meetings section, you will find the meeting details and a Join button that will take you to the video link.

Clicking the meeting will take the user participant to the meeting details and this is also where they can RSVP to the meeting.

All users added as participants will also receive a meeting invitation via email. In this email, they can find the meeting event details along with the video link.

The candidate or external participant will receive an email invitation with the added meeting message and details available.

At the bottom of the email, they will also find a View meeting details button leading them to a page where they can RSVP, add the meeting to their calendar, and access the video meeting link.

When joining a meeting using the Teamtailor video service, all participants will enter the waiting room where they can get ready for the meeting. Here, both you and the participants will be able to enter their names and preview video/microphone settings. All participants will need to allow camera and microphone access in their browser to see and hear each other.

Here, the participants have the option of picking a virtual background or blurring it.

Candidates and external participants will be able to blur their background or use one of our default backgrounds, including the main color of your company's brand. They will see a Ready to join button, and after clicking it, they must be admitted before entering the meeting.

Users will be able to choose from our default backgrounds, backgrounds uploaded by your company, or upload their own.

For users participating in the meeting, they will be able to join instantly when they are ready by clicking the Join button. Once in the meeting, they can admit the external participants.
​
Please note that any user will be able to let external participants into the meeting regardless of whether they are a part of the hiring team or not.

You and your participants have several options available inside the meeting:

* Recordable video meetings need to be enabled in the Add-on feature center before use

Below you'll see a table of the supported browsers for the Teamtailor video service. Make sure that you and your participants access the meeting in one of these browsers.
