Summary:

An interview request arrives, availability is checked, invitations are confirmed, and the request is closed with clear notes. The Interview Coordination Specialist keeps that sequence organized so candidates and interviewers know what happens next. This position sits within the recruiting support team, works under a recruiting team lead, and partners with candidates, recruiters, hiring managers, and interviewers. It is a fully remote, desk-based role offering work from home in Michigan, United States.

Working days and shift times may vary.

Job Responsibilities:

• Review interview requests arriving through a shared email inbox or recruiting queue, identifying the candidate, open position, interview stage, and requested participants.

• Update interview status and scheduling notes in an applicant-tracking system such as Lever, keeping candidate details aligned with the recruiter's instructions.
• Compare candidate availability with interviewer calendars, checking for overlapping meetings, interview sequence, and preparation gaps before proposing suitable interview options to participants.
• Send clear invitations with participant names, interview format, joining instructions, and expected duration, confirming that candidates receive the correct details.
• Arrange virtual meeting access through a team collaboration platform such as Zoom, and verify that invitation links match the scheduled interview.
• Monitor confirmations and follow up on unanswered invitations, letting recruiters know when missing responses could delay the interview or next hiring step.
• Resolve routine cancellations and rescheduling requests, escalating unavailable interview panels, recurring conflicts, or unclear priorities to the recruiter or recruiting team lead.
• After each interview, confirm completion with participants, remind interviewers about outstanding feedback, and update the recruiter before closing the scheduling request.
• Maintain quality through accurate invitations, prompt turnaround, complete scheduling notes, and dependable follow-up, reviewing errors with the recruiting team lead.
