How to Build Interview Scheduling Across Greenhouse, Outlook, and Google Calendar with ATS and Calendar APIs
Blog post from Unified.to
Recruiting platforms often need to streamline interview scheduling between candidates, recruiters, and hiring managers by integrating with various ATS and calendar systems like Greenhouse, Outlook, and Google Calendar. This process is complicated by the fact that applicant tracking systems and calendar platforms operate on different APIs and data schemas. Unified offers a solution by providing normalized APIs that simplify the integration process, allowing developers to manage candidates, applications, and interview schedules through a consistent interface. SaaS products use these capabilities to automate interview scheduling workflows, such as recruiter-coordinated interviews, candidate self-scheduling, and automated rescheduling, by connecting ATS and calendar data seamlessly. Unified's API categories, which include ATS and Calendar & Meetings, facilitate this integration by normalizing objects like candidate and application data across various providers. Additionally, Unified Connect allows customers to authorize and manage their ATS and calendar integrations, while webhook events enable real-time updates for scheduling changes. This comprehensive approach supports extensive coverage across diverse hiring and scheduling platforms, allowing product teams to enhance recruiting workflows without managing multiple integrations.
