# How Do Automated Interviews Work?

## Operation and Setup of Automated Interviews

Automated interviews allow for scheduling interviews that will automatically trigger according to defined criteria, based on the employee's hire date.

This feature is ideal for ensuring systematic interviews related to the arrival of new employees, such as end-of-probation interviews, feedback reports, etc.

**Configuration Settings**

Here are the elements to define when setting up an automated interview campaign:

- **Target Population**: You can define the employees involved by applying filters on various criteria in the employee database, such as: Scope, Contract, Department, Site, Service, etc.
- **Evaluator**: the direct manager N+1 or a specific HR administrator
- **Trigger Date**: the delay (x days, weeks, or years) after the hire date.
- **Signature Deadline** (in days)

Feel free to contact your dedicated Skillup representative to set up this type of campaign. 

**💡 Error Management**

When adding an interview to the campaign, a check is performed to ensure that all the employee's information is valid:

- If the hierarchical manager is the evaluator of the interview: the employee indeed has a hierarchical manager listed in the employee database,
- If the interview template includes a module for skill assessments (job description or skill evaluation): the employee does indeed have a job description assigned.

 If an error is detected, the employee's interview will not be added to the campaign, and an alert will appear in the campaign tracking with a downloadable error report. You can correct the errors and manually add the interview, or wait for the system to automatically add it the next day.
