# Interview Integration

### What is Interview Integration?

The **Interview Integration Module** enables admins and employers to schedule and manage video interviews directly from the Artha platform, without switching between external tools or manual coordination.

### Why is it important?

Having **interview integration** in a job board is important because it removes friction between **finding candidates** and **actually interviewing them**. In simple terms, it helps everyone move faster with fewer tools and less confusion.

1. With interview integration, the meeting link is created **automatically inside the job board**. One action replaces multiple steps, like emailing candidates back and forth, creating meeting links manually in tools, copying links, updating calendars, and following up.
2. A built-in interview flow makes the process clear and immediate, which **increases interview attendance** and reduces drop-offs.

### How to use Interview Integration?

1. Navigate to "Manage Portal", click on "App Center", and click on "Interview Integration".<br>

2. The admin can choose to connect either of the apps to proceed by clicking on "Connect".

3. Then the user has to choose the integration mode.\
   **Integration mode**: Artha offers two integration modes for interview scheduling. These modes define who manages the technical setup and how much control you have over the integration.
   1. **Artha App**: Artha provides a pre-configured, ready-to-use integration. All technical setup and maintenance are handled by Artha.
   2. **Custom App**: You connect your own application and manage the integration at an organizational level. It gives you complete control over authentication, permissions, and compliance.

4. Once you choose an integration mode, Artha lets you decide how the integration will be used across your job board. This is called the **integration type**.

   There are two types of integration type:

   1. **Centralized Account**: In the Centralized Account setup, the admin connects a single video conferencing and calendar account that is used for all interviews across the job board.

      Once connected:

      * All interviews are scheduled using the same shared calendar
        * Employers do not need to connect their own accounts
        * The admin controls interview scheduling at a central level
   2. **Individual Employer Account**: In the Individual Employer Account setup, each employer connects their own video conferencing and calendar account from their profile.

      Once connected:

      * Interviews are scheduled using the employer’s own calendar.
        * Employers manage their own availability and schedules.
        * The admin does not control or access the employer calendars.

5. Enter details on the platform.
