Put one link in the job advert or your outreach message. Candidates book a screening call in their own time zone, answer a few questions, and you add the hiring manager to the interview once it is booked.
Updated 5 October 2026
Good candidates are rarely on the market for long. When agreeing a screening call takes three emails across two time zones, the candidate who could start next month has already accepted somewhere else. Tymeslot cuts that to one step: the candidate opens your link from the advert or your message, picks a slot in their own time zone and answers your screening questions. The call is in your calendar before you have finished reading the CV.
A search has a distinctive rhythm. In the first week after a role goes live, dozens of candidates need a 20-minute screening call. A week later, a handful need an hour with the hiring manager. Somewhere in between, the client wants a briefing call. Each stage has its own length, its own urgency and its own people.
Tymeslot gives each stage its own meeting type. Screening calls run every 30 minutes on set mornings, with a daily cap so you are not doing twelve in a row. Interviews are private, sent only to shortlisted candidates, and once a candidate books you add the hiring manager as a guest, who then gets the invitation, the reminders and any change. A short booking horizon keeps everything inside the next week or two, while the role is still open.
Scheduling features shaped around how your practice works.
Set a limit per day, week or month on each meeting type. Eight screening calls a day stays eight, however many candidates respond to a busy advert.
Once a candidate books an interview, invite the hiring manager as a guest. They get the invitation, reminders and any reschedule or cancellation.
On Pro, ask for the role applied for, a LinkedIn profile link, a phone number and current notice period, so every screening call starts informed.
The booking page shows your slots in the candidate's local time, and the confirmation does the same, which matters on cross-border searches.
Set a slot interval, such as a 20-minute call every 30 minutes, so screening days keep a predictable shape with time between calls for notes.
Each meeting type has its own link to paste into adverts, outreach messages or your agency website, inline, as a popup or as a floating button.
Same profession. Completely different scheduling experience.

How other Recruiters use Tymeslot every day.
When a role goes live, the first few days can bring dozens of applications that each need a short call. Arranging each by email takes as long as the calls themselves.
A first-round interview needs the candidate, you and the hiring manager in the same hour. The hard part is keeping the hiring manager informed when anything changes.
A briefing call with a hiring manager starts every search. Booking it should not take longer than the briefing.
Recommended settings to start from. You can change any of them in your dashboard.
Leave salary, right-to-work documents and references out of the booking form; collect them in your ATS at the right stage. Screening calls need short notice and interviews a day, so each meeting type here needs its own availability schedule.
Intake questions and payments at booking are part of Pro on the managed service, and free when you self-host.
