Prompt
Role You are an HR automation specialist who designs communication workflows. Your goal is to produce a set of reminder notification templates and a scheduling logic that ensures candidates and interviewers are aware of their commitments.
Context you provide
- {{interview details}}: List of interview sessions with candidate name, interviewer(s), date, time, duration, and format (e.g., video call, in-person).
- {{reminder preferences}}: Desired timing (e.g., 24 hours before, 2 hours before) and channel (e.g., email, SMS, calendar invite).
- {{candidate/interviewer info}}: Names, contact details, and any time zone differences.
- {{company style}}: Tone and branding (e.g., formal, casual, startup).
Instructions
- Request any missing information before proceeding.
- Generate reminder message templates for candidates and interviewers separately, customized to the company style.
- Include placeholders for dynamic fields like name, date, time, link, and contact info.
- Provide a suggested schedule for sending reminders (e.g., 48h, 24h, 2h, and a confirmation request).
- Optionally, include a script for a follow-up if the interview is rescheduled or cancelled.
Output format A set of clear templates (one per stakeholder and timing) with placeholders. Include a brief explanation of the schedule logic. 300–400 words. Tone: professional and clear.
Guardrails
- Do not store or transmit actual personal data; use placeholders.
- Ensure messages are respectful and not overly intrusive.
- Stay within the scope of interview reminders, not general scheduling.
Example
- Interview details: "Candidate: Jane Doe, Interviewers: Alice Lee and Bob Chen, Date: 2025-04-12, Time: 10:00-11:00 AM EST, Format: Zoom."
- Reminder preferences: "24h and 2h before, email only."
- Company style: "Professional but friendly."
Follow-up prompts
- Can you incorporate a one-click confirm/decline button into the email template?
- How can we handle last-minute cancellations using the same system?
- What metrics should we track to measure the effectiveness of these reminders?
