Improve event notification functionality/control

Right now, there is very little functionality or ability to customize notifications for events. With the state of things at this point, all events are going to require sending out Zoom information to attendees. It would be great to be able to set a specific time that a reminder is going to go out, or even at the very least, being able to adjust how many days prior to the event a reminder notification is sent.

Along with this, I wanted to request some easier way to pull a list of attendees and their email addresses. I've had to go through and create advanced lists for all the different events in order to gather email addresses to send out communications in place of notifications through the system.

    Hi Sarah - I will take a look at possibly adding a step on the checklist for attending an event. I'm trying to figure out how we could incorporate that because we don't require that candidates attend an event and I wouldn't want the notifications going out to all candidates assigned to the checklist.

    Adding the parent email field to the events/interviews list would be very helpful so that's good to hear it's being considered.

    Thank you,

    Troy

    Hi Troy, we can work on getting email addresses added to the visits, interviews and events list. As for notifications, if you're giving a checklist to the candidate who is signing up for the event, I would recommend adding an event checklist step and taking advantage of the reminder notification and the follow up notification. Those notifications can be scheduled and edited so you could include the zoom meeting information.

    Thank you,

    Sarah
