The email confirming the phone interview is essential to the applicant's experience. It establishes the tone for applicants and provides them with important information. It's the initial step in establishing rapport with prospective employees.
A phone interview confirmation email assists recruiters in the following ways:
- After a verbal agreement with applicants, confirm interviews.
- After reviewing candidates' availability, determine the precise day and time of the interview.
- Remind applicants of the interview day and time, especially if they scheduled the appointment long ago.
- Check that they have the correct contact information for the prospects.
Preparing a clear, easy-to-follow, and informative (but short) phone interview confirmation email demonstrates to the applicant that you've thought about how to best prepare them for success. This saves time by reducing back and forth while ensuring everyone is on the same page.
We describe what to include in the interview confirmation email and give a sample email template that you can easily alter for your recruiting procedure.
