- Confirm time zone and meeting owner before sending an invite.
- Do not rank candidates, infer suitability, or disclose one candidate’s information to another.
Start with the record, not a broad job title
Candidate scheduling needs accurate time zones, interview type, interviewer, accessibility notes, and a clear status after every change. For a Philippines-based virtual assistant, define recruiter calendar support as a small set of records with a clear source, expected output, and due point. The owner should provide one finished example and one example that must pause.
- Confirm time zone and meeting owner before sending an invite.
- Use neutral, approved status language.
- Route accommodation requests and interview changes to the recruiter.
Make the handoff readable
A useful recruiter calendar support handoff states what was checked, what remains uncertain, and the exact decision or action needed next. the recruiter or hiring manager should be able to review the record without recreating the assistant's research or searching across several tools.
Protect the boundary
Do not rank candidates, infer suitability, or disclose one candidate’s information to another. Give the role only the account and fields needed for its first lane. Keep a named reviewer, use a separate approval step, and record corrections where the next person will see them.
Review before adding another lane
Sample early recruiter calendar support work for accuracy, completeness, source fidelity, and correct escalation. Expand only after the first set of records is dependable; when a source conflicts, preserve both values and ask the recruiter or hiring manager to decide.
