To get started, head to the calendar section in your profile. Here you will find a list of connected video providers. By default, the integrated softgarden video service Jitsi is enabled.
Click on Add Service to add additional providers. A new page opens and you will receive an email from our partner Cronofy to verify your account. Simply click on the link in the mail to continue.
Next, click on your desired video provider and login with your account. For Google Meet, no login is required and the authentication is done automatically when connecting a Google Calendar account.
After successful login, your video service will be added to the list of available providers and you can start inviting applicants for a video interview. Multiple providers can be added at the same time for maximum flexibility.
