Sharing the interview link

Every interview in TalentSprout has a unique link that candidates use to start their AI interview. To share it:

Go to your interview list and click the interview you want to share to open its detail page.
Click Share in the header bar.
In the Share modal, you have four options:

Copy interview link — Click Copy link to copy the direct interview URL to your clipboard. Send it via email, messaging, or any channel.
Send via email (Recommended) — View a pre-written email template with the interview link, then click Copy email to copy it to your clipboard and paste into your email client.
Embed on your website — View the HTML iframe snippet and click Copy code to copy it. See the Embedding section below.
Preview link for team testing — Copy a special preview URL that lets your team experience the interview without creating a candidate record or using interview credits.

Click Done when finished.

Sending interview invitations by email

The easiest way to invite candidates is to copy the email template from the Share modal:

Click Copy email in the Send via email section.
Paste it into your email client (Gmail, Outlook, etc.).
Customize the message if needed and send.

The template includes the job title and the interview link, ready for you to customize.

Embedding interviews on your website

You can embed the interview directly on your careers page or job listing:

In the Share modal, find the Embed on your website section.
Click Copy code to copy the iframe snippet.
Paste it into your website's HTML where you want the interview to appear.

The embed snippet looks like this:

<iframe
  src="https://www.talentsprout.ai/embed/interview/{INTERVIEW_ID}"
  allow="camera; microphone; autoplay; fullscreen; display-capture"
  width="100%"
  height="700"
  style="border: none;"
></iframe>

The Share modal also links to the full embed documentation for advanced options. For more details, see the "Embedding interviews on your website" article in the Integrations collection.

Pre-filling candidate information

You can pre-fill candidate details by adding URL parameters to the interview link. This is useful when you already know who the candidate is (e.g., from your ATS or CRM):

firstName — Candidate's first name
lastName — Candidate's last name
email — Candidate's email address
phone — Candidate's phone number
externalUserId — Your internal candidate ID for tracking

Example:

https://www.talentsprout.ai/interview/{ID}?firstName=Jane&lastName=Smith&[email protected]

Pre-filled fields appear locked in the candidate info form, so candidates don't need to re-enter them.

What candidates see

When a candidate opens the interview link, they see:

Overview page — Your company name, logo, job title, description, estimated duration, and an optional welcome video.
Candidate info form — Name, email, and optionally phone number (unless pre-filled or skipped in settings).
Pre-screening (if enabled) — Resume upload and/or a short questionnaire before the interview begins.
Device check — Camera and microphone permissions, device selection, and a quick test.
The AI interview — A conversational interview with the AI interviewer.
Completion screen — A thank-you message with optional access to their results.

Tips for higher completion rates

Keep the interview short — 10–15 minute interviews have the highest completion rates.
Write a clear job description — Candidates are more likely to complete an interview when they understand the role.
Enable pre-filling — Reducing form fields speeds up the candidate experience.
Share early — Send the interview link as soon as a candidate applies, while the role is fresh in their mind.
