Spot upcoming interview conflicts before the day gets busy
Have Notis check the calendar on a schedule for upcoming interview events and summarize what needs attention.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find event
Finds events in a specified google calendar using text query, time ranges (event start/end, last modification), and event types; ensure `timemin` is not chronologically after `timemax` if both are provided.
Why this helps
When interviews are spread across a busy calendar, conflicts and missing details can be easy to overlook until the last minute.
- Get a regular view of upcoming interview commitments.
- Surface likely calendar conflicts for a human to review.
- Reduce the need to manually scan a packed calendar.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ashby and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction to find upcoming interview events in Google Calendar and report overlaps or apparent gaps, without assuming Ashby data that is not provided.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real upcoming interview period and review the report.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow read Ashby directly?
The listed trigger choices do not include Ashby events. This scheduled workflow searches Google Calendar events, so Ashby candidate or pipeline details are only available if they are included in the calendar event or supplied separately.
Can it determine whether an interview is confirmed in Ashby?
Not from the listed Google Calendar search action alone. Confirmation status must be included in event data or supplied by the user.
What happens when it finds a possible conflict?
Notis can summarize the result in the run report channel you choose. This workflow does not change calendar events.
