01
Higher show rates at university events
Send targeted reminders that fit student schedules and reduce friction before university recruiting events. Nudge registrants to confirm, share venue details and virtual links, and handle waitlists automatically. Cal.com workflows adapt to different campuses, time zones, and formats, so invites and updates always arrive at the right moment. Clear confirmations, calendar holds, and day of reminders improve attendance, lower no-shows, and keep sessions full. Your team gets predictable turnout and better data to plan the next event.
02
Shorter time to schedule interviews
Eliminate back and forth by letting students pick times that match recruiter and interviewer availability. Round robin rules fill calendars without conflicts, while buffers protect transition time. Candidates move from event check-in to interview signups in minutes, accelerating the college hiring process. Coordinators save hours per week, interviewers avoid double booking, and hiring managers see faster funnel movement from screen to offer. Speed matters when competing for top students, and automation ensures no strong candidate waits for next steps.
