Messages and interview invites

Read and reply to employer messages, accept or decline interviews, pick a time slot and add it to your calendar.

Your inbox

Open Messages. Tabs show All, Unread, Interviews and Offers. Search by company or job title. Employers start conversations; you can reply in any conversation an employer started.

  • Type your reply and press Send. Enter sends, Shift+Enter adds a new line. You can attach a file with the paperclip.
  • The ⋮ menu lets you Mark as unread, Mute email notifications for that conversation, or Report conversation.
  • You see when the employer is typing and when they have seen your message.

If replying is blocked, it is usually because your profile is hidden from that company and you never applied there. The message explains what to change on your Profile.

Answer an interview invite

Interview requests show as a card in the conversation.

  • Accept confirms the interview.
  • Ask for another time lets you propose a date and time, with a note.
  • Decline says no politely.
  • If the employer offered several times, pick one under Which time works for you? and choose Confirm this time. Times other people already booked show as no longer available. Choose None of these work to ask for another time.

Calendar and reminders

Confirmed interviews come with a calendar invite in the email. On the card you can also add it to Google Calendar or download an .ics file. If the employer changes the time or cancels, you get an updated invite.

We email you a reminder 24 hours and 1 hour before a confirmed interview.

Message emails

You get an email when an employer messages you (at most one every 10 minutes per conversation). Turn this off with Messages from employers under Email notifications in Settings. Interview emails always arrive.

Never pay anyone or share OTPs or bank details in a chat. See Stay safe from job scams.
