This section covers how to use the Schedule step to prepare time slots for your interviews by:

  • Setting schedule options
  • Building your calendar
  • Finalizing time slot details

Setting schedule options Copy link

Your schedule has a few general settings which influence the general setup of the schedule:

  • Number of participants – the total number of time slots combined from all added sources.
  • Time slot length – the length of the time slot in the schedule. If the interview is longer than the allocated time, it won’t be automatically terminated.
  • Break between time slots – an enforced space between time slots in the schedule.
  • Slots lock beforehand – this attribute determines when the slot locks if there isn’t anyone registered for it. For example if you set it to 24 hr, the participants need to register at least 24 hours ahead of the time slot.

Choose the length of the time slot, number of participants and other related schedule settings.

Building your calendar Copy link

The calendar section is where you can set up time slots of availability for your interview. You can change the time zone of the calendar for easier setup.

To create the first time slot, click on any time in the yellow study window or after the window. If you click on a time after the window, it will move the window accordingly.

The size of the study window is determined by the number of timeslots. If you wish to to extend the study window you need to increase the number of time slots.

To add time slots with the same setup, you can drag from the existing time slot by its top or bottom edge.

To move a time slot to a different week, you can either reschedule it in the time slot details or Press CTRL + SHIFT + ARROW LEFT / ARROW RIGHT to move the selected slot to the previous/following week.

The time slots are color-coded based on the participant source connected to the given time slot. Each time slot can have only one source.
