The Invite Candidate page allows you to invite candidates to One-Way Video Interviews and Predictive Talent Assessments easily and efficiently.

Big news 🚀 Instead of the old setup wizard, you’ll now use a streamlined and assessment-focused page that aligns with the job-level setup. This update simplifies the process, so you can seamlessly invite candidates to One-Ways and PTAs—all from one place.

Invite candidates

  1. There are many places in Spark Hire from where you can invite a candidate to take an assessment:

    1. From the left-side menu, click Interviews > Invite.
    2. From the Interviews page, click Invite.
    3. From the candidate’s profile, click the three dots on the far right and select Invite.
    4. From the View job page, click Invite at the top of the page.
  2. In all cases, the Invite dropdown will look the same and you will be asked to choose one of the available assessment options.

    • One-Way Video Interview
    • Live Video Interview
    • Predictive Talent Assessment
    • Request references

    For Live Video Interviews or Request references, follow the steps in this article to complete the invitation process.

    Selecting an assessment option will redirect you to the Invite page, where you’ll complete specific setup steps based on the assessment type.

    If you select One-Way Video Interview or Predictive Talent Assessment, you will be redirected to the Invite page, where you’ll complete specific setup steps based on the assessment type (see step 3).

  3. Select the job you want the interview to be for and an assessment type.

  4. Enter the candidate’s name, email, and phone number if relevant.

    • Add up to 100 candidates in bulk by uploading a CSV file. To do this, click CSV upload, download the template, fill the columns with the relevant candidates, and re-upload the file.
    • You also have the option to send candidates updates via SMS text messages.
    The CSV and SMS features are not available to some legacy plans.
  5. Optionally, customize your email invitation.

    • If you have set up default email templates for one-way interview invites in your email template library, they will automatically be used as the default content for your invitations.
    • If you want to edit the email invitation content or choose another template, select Yes under Do you want to modify the email invitation that will be sent to your candidate(s)? Customize the content or choose a new email template by clicking Select Email Template and selecting one from the list.

  6. Set a completion deadline for candidates using:

    • Relative timelines (e.g., "3 days") that expire at the end of the third day in the user’s time zone.
    • Absolute timelines (specific dates and times), allowing precise control over the candidate's deadline.
