With today's release, we're giving you the option to allow candidates to suggest times through direct booking links. If candidates can't find a suitable time, they can now send their preferred slots to the meeting organizer.

<div style={{position: "relative", paddingBottom: "56.25%", height: 0}}><iframe src="https://www.loom.com/embed/68d5481124474d35a0c98d89f68ca328" frameBorder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowFullScreen style={{position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0, width: "100%", height: "100%"}}></iframe></div>

Keeping this scheduling workflow in Ashby reduces the back and forth email communication with meeting organizers if candidates can’t find a time that works for them. It also provides a more approachable way for candidates to suggest new times, rather than force a time that's inconvenient, leading to a higher quality interview experience.

To get started, you can enable the setting at the organizational level or on individual schedule templates.

![suggested-times-admin](/images/suggest-times-admin.png)

Now, when scheduling through a direct booking link candidates can have the option to suggest times to the meeting organizer.

![suggest-times-cta](/images/suggest-times-cta.png)

Candidates are taken to a scheduling flow where they can suggest different days and/or new time slots.

![submit-suggested-times](/images/submitting-suggested-times.png)

Once the candidate submits, a notification will automatically send to the meeting organizer via slack or email and appear in the candidate feed.

![suggested-times-feed-item](/images/suggested-times-feed-item.png)

This brings a critical piece of the interview scheduling workflow into Ashby, so hiring teams can be more productive and candidates can have a seamless interview experience. If you’re interested in using Ashby and the new “suggested times“ feature, [book a demo with us](https://www.ashbyhq.com/request-demo?utm_campaign=Content-ProductBlog&utm_source=blog&utm_content=suggested-times)!

Allow your candidates to suggest times when using direct booking links to schedule events. 

New Feature: Candidate Suggested Times for Direct Bookings

We’re excited to launch a new sourcing feature that allows you to scale, track, and report on your LinkedIn outreach activities. In Ashby, you can now add a sequence step that notifies you to send a LinkedIn InMail or LinkedIn connection request. You also have the option to log these two LinkedIn activities as one-off communication touch points outside of your sequences.

Sourcing and engaging candidates now involves more than just sending a handful of emails. Modern recruiters are diversifying their communication strategies to increase response rates. But, if your team is reaching hundreds of candidates weekly, through various communication methods, it becomes challenging to scale and track these efforts. Let’s look at how you can now handle this in Ashby.

## LinkedIn InMail & connection requests in sequences

You can now add a step in your sequences that will prompt you to send an InMail or connection request, using a customizable template you’ve set up.

![add-linkedin-step-to-sequence](/images/add-linkedin-step.png)

Once a sequence reaches a LinkedIn-specific stage, the sequence will pause. You'll then be notified via email as well as on the Ashby homepage to complete the action.

![notification-to-send-email](/images/notification-to-send-email.png)

These notifications will take you directly to the candidate’s LinkedIn profile where you can send the InMail or complete the connection request and mark it as done.

![send-and-mark-as-done](/images/send-and-mark-as-done.png)

## Directly logging outreach and replies

You may also want to send your LinkedIn outreach outside of a sequence. You can do that too! Quickly log these activities directly from the chrome extension.

![log-activity-from-chrome](/images/log-activity-from-chrome.png)

Or, from the candidate profile.

![log-activity-from-profile](/images/log-activity-from-profile.png)

## Reporting on outreach activities

To understand the impact of your multi-channel sourcing strategy, we've added a new reporting subject called "Outreach Activities" for you to build custom reports from.

![outreach-activity-subject](/images/outreach-activity-subject.png)

We’ve also included report templates that give you Outreach Activity reporting out-of-the-box.

![outreach-activity-template](/images/outreach-activity-template.png)

Now, we can easily see a report of all Outreach Activities, broken out by channel, over the last three months. 

![outreach-activity-report](/images/outreach-act-report.png)

These new LinkedIn outreach activities give you a ton of flexibility for scaling and tracking your sourcing strategies across multiple communication channels within Ashby. 

You can read up on all the details at [Ashby University](https://ashbyhq.notion.site/Sequences-InMail-and-Connection-Request-Stages-0478fe894c4847e8a3e29c878c659b6f), or get started by adding these steps to your sourcing and outreach workflows. You can also [book a demo](https://www.ashbyhq.com/request-demo?utm_campaign=Content-ProductBlog&utm_source=blog&utm_content=linkedin-outreach-tracking) if you’re interested in using our new LinkedIn outreach activity tracking feature in Ashby!

Add LinkedIn InMail and connection requests as steps in your sequences, or log them directly. 

New Feature: Add LinkedIn Outreach Activities to Your Sourcing Strategy in Ashby

Creating custom reports and dashboards in Ashby is extremely powerful. The ability to drive actionable insights from this data has become critical to high performing recruiting teams. This is why we’re excited to announce our new Scheduled Dashboard Delivery feature that enables you to make your dashboard data even more accessible. 

You now have the ability to automatically send your dashboards via slack and email on customizable schedules. You can specify the frequency, recipients, filters, and data format for the various dashboards you want to send out.

<div style={{position: "relative", paddingBottom: "56.25%", height: 0}}><iframe src="https://www.loom.com/embed/1aa3cae61cc848d88c8c080ffb84e805" frameBorder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowFullScreen style={{position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0, width: "100%", height: "100%"}}></iframe></div>

These delivery schedules make it easy to automatically surface your dashboards to the appropriate stakeholders and team members on a predictable cadence. By offering new methods for consuming dashboards - via Slack and email - you’re able to help drive a culture of data-informed decision-making, performance, and accountability. To set up a Scheduled Dashboard Delivery:

Click the “Scheduled Delivery” button from a dashboard view. Here you’ll see the number of active and inactive schedules.

![scheduled dashboard button](/images/scheduled-dash-button.png)

After you click “Scheduled Delivery” you’ll have the ability to set up one or more schedules and define the settings for your delivery.

![delivery parameters](/images/scheduled-dashboard-paramaters.png)

1. **Frequency:** Day, week, month, quarter
2. **Deliver by:** Slack or email
3. **Deliver to:** Email address, users, slack user or channel. 
4. **Filters:** Specify dashboard filters if available
5. **Format:** CSV, PDF, Both
6. **Content:** Title and message

*Note: see the [full details](https://ashbyhq.notion.site/Scheduled-Dashboards-3475993bc2944cf09aafff4e42975543#f68f716e93d0467fbedb57a808c357ac) on who can receive dashboards over slack and email.*

Once you’ve configured your delivery preferences you can “Activate” the schedule to start sending your Dashboard based on the frequency you’ve set up. You can also “Send now” at any point to immediately send to the recipients on the schedule for testing purposes.

![activate dashboard](/images/scheduled-activation.png)

Whenever the frequency criteria is met for a Scheduled Dashboard Delivery your recipients will receive their report via Slack or email. PDFs are sent as attachments. The CSV format has each report as separate and zipped to one file. 

![email delivery](/images/image-32-.png)

![slack delivery](/images/image-33-.png)

If you’re already using Ashby [you can learn more at Ashby University](https://ashbyhq.notion.site/Scheduled-Dashboards-3475993bc2944cf09aafff4e42975543), or get started by heading to your Dashboards and clicking the “Scheduled Delivery” button. You can also [book a demo](https://www.ashbyhq.com/request-demo?utm_campaign=Content-ProductBlog&utm_source=blog&utm_content=scheduled-dashboard-delivery-feature) if you’re interested in using the new Scheduled Dashboard Delivery feature in Ashby!

Recruiting for an open position can take place across a variety of different communication channels. This might be over LinkedIn, different messaging apps, online chats, and anywhere else you’re reaching potential candidates. 

No matter how you prefer to communicate these conversations eventually lead to a formal job consideration and scheduled interview. However, gathering contact details, availability, and associating candidates to the correct job and interview stage from these channels can be an inefficient, multi-step process. 

Now in Ashby, you can use a Public Booking Link. 


<div style={{position: "relative", paddingBottom: "56.25%", height: 0}}><iframe src="https://www.loom.com/embed/738a1856cb044f91b8e7a0ef07f3337a?sid=f7139dcb-52c1-4d50-9215-2a77b9967840" frameBorder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowFullScreen style={{position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0, width: "100%", height: "100%"}}></iframe></div>


Public Booking Links are special scheduling links for a specific Job and Interview Stage that you can send to anyone whether they exist in Ashby or not. You can also embed them as a substitution token to be used in your email sequences. Once the recipient of the link schedules themselves they will be created in Ashby (if needed) and automatically moved to the correct interview stage of the associated job. A workflow for Public Booking Links looks like this:

Copy the unique Public Booking Link for a Job and Interview stage.

![adding booking](/images/adding-booking.png)

Send the link to anyone depending on the context of your previous conversations.  

![sending the booking link](/images/sending-link.png)

The recipient will pick a time slot based on the availability of the interviewer for that job and stage.

![booking view](/images/booking-view.png)

After they’ve entered in their contact information and completed the booking process a unique event URL is generated where they can cancel or reschedule as needed. 

![completed booking](/images/completed-booking.png)

Once recipient has completed the booking process a few things will happen. Ashby will automatically:

1.  Create the candidate (if needed)
2.  Associate the candidate with the Job and move them to the correct Interview Stage
3.  Schedule and send out calendar invites to the interviewer and candidate

![already scheduled for the interview](/images/already-scheduled-interview.png)

You’ll notice the candidate is now in the pipeline for the associated job and already scheduled for the interview at the Hiring Manager Phone Screen stage. 

You can also add Public Booking links as substitution tokens into Sequence tied to specific jobs. This will insert the Public Booking Link for the first Interview on your job’s Interview Plan.

![sequence token](/images/sequence-token.png)

When a candidate fills out a Public Booking link from a sequence, Ashby will mark them as "Recipient Replied", stop the sequence, and mark them as converted.


![converted candidates](/images/converted-candidate.png)

You will now see the candidates in the pipeline with the interview scheduled.

![candidates in pipeline](/images/candidate-in-pipeline.png)

Streamlining the scheduling process is one of the best ways to improve the candidate experience. It also helps recruiting teams efficiently move candidates through their hiring process and gives them a new tool to increase conversions.

New Platform Integration: Ashby All-In-One Integrates with Microsoft 365

Globally distributed workforces and remote work have amplified the importance of candidate location data in modern recruiting. In Ashby, you now have the ability to store structured location data as a field directly on the candidate’s profile. Treating this data as a primary field on your candidate's profile helps to unlock efficiency and improvements in your recruiting process. With the location field set on the candidate in Ashby you can:  

* Analyze where candidates are coming from to better allocate recruiting efforts
* Automatically infer and set the candidate’s timezone to streamline scheduling
* Perform bulk actions on candidates based on their location
* Use candidate location as a default custom field value in your offers

See how it works and read the full details below.

<div style={{position: "relative", paddingBottom: "56.25%", height: 0}}><iframe src="https://www.loom.com/embed/69c6e368b22d4ce6933cad492812655e" frameBorder="0" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true" allowFullScreen style={{position: "absolute", top: 0, left: 0, width: "100%", height: "100%"}}></iframe></div>

[Or watch on Loom](https://www.loom.com/share/69c6e368b22d4ce6933cad492812655e). 

#### How to get started

Add *Candidate Location* as a question on your application forms in Ashby. You have the option to configure the types of locations candidates are able to set.

![application-form-setup](/images/application-form-setup.png)

Now, when candidates fill out your form they’ll have an easy way to enter their location and you’ll collect this as structured data when the application is submitted.

![candidate-application-form-view](/images/application-form-candidate.png)

You also have the option to set this manually on the candidate profile summary.

![set-manually](/images/candidate-profile.png)

#### Common use cases

When a candidate location is set manually or through the application submission, Ashby will automatically infer and set the candidate’s timezone based on that location. Setting this value based on the candidate’s location saves a step and helps streamline scheduling across timezones.

![infer-timezone](/images/timezone-shortcut.png)

*Note: If you are using [auto-fill on your job applications](https://headwayapp.co/ashby-release-notes/auto-fill-for-job-applications-267746), Ashby can parse the location from a resume, auto-fill the location, and set the candidate’s timezone automatically!*  

Analyzing candidate locations is useful to inform your recruiting strategies. You can spot geographic trends and better learn where candidates are coming from to help maximize your recruiting efforts.

![candidate-location-reporting](/images/reporting.png)

Performing bulk actions on candidates based on their location data becomes really powerful. You can create a list of previously archived candidates from your talent pool that were unwilling to relocate, and enroll them in an email sequence announcing the new office you’re opening up in their area.

![bulk actions](/images/bulk-actions.png)

As part of Ashby’s data-centric design you can use candidate location data as a shortcut in other places. Here, we’re setting it as the default value on a custom offer field to be automatically populated when generating an offer.

![custom-offer-fields](/images/custom-offer-fields.png)

This also makes it easy to create auto-reject configurations if you have location based rules you must enforce for your hiring process. 

![](/images/auto-reject.png)

If you’re already using Ashby, get started by adding the Candidate Location field to your application forms or by setting it directly on a candidate’s profile. You can also [book a demo with us](https://www.ashbyhq.com/request-demo?utm_campaign=Content-ProductBlog&utm_source=blog&utm_content=candidate-location-feature) if you are interested in learning more about capturing candidate location data directly within Ashby!

Save geographic data directly on your candidate's profile making it easy to analyze candidates by location.
