Recruiters: clarify the fit.
Discuss the role, relevant experience and practical expectations before choosing whether to offer work. A conversation adds context to a profile; it does not replace your judgment.
INTERVIEW REQUESTS / TALK BEFORE THE OFFER
Make room for a better hiring decision.
A profile can start your shortlist. A conversation can help you understand the person, the work and the questions still open. Interview Requests let a Recruiter or Customer invite a matched Jobseeker to that conversation.
FOLLOW A POSSIBLE JOURNEY / ILLUSTRATION ONLY
An invitation starts a conversation.
It does not decide the outcome.
Follow the exchange as it happens, or take control of either person’s next decision. This fictional example sends nothing and is not an app recording.
Teaching illustration only. No real people, requests, quotes or offers. Current eligibility and terms apply in the app.
Read the complete interview explanation
01 / INVITE WITH CONTEXT
Give the other person something useful to review.
Choose the matched Jobseeker and explain the purpose of the interview. Review the proposed schedule and the details the app asks for before sending. Account verification and applicable request rules still apply.
02 / LEAVE ROOM FOR A RESPONSE
A request is not an obligation.
The Jobseeker can accept, decline or request a modification. Read any prerequisites before responding. The request status tells both sides what is happening; it does not turn the person into a booked worker.
03 / CONFIRM, DON’T ASSUME
Agree on when the conversation will happen.
Accepting and confirming the schedule are separate steps. The Jobseeker can confirm the proposed time or suggest a change; a proposed change still needs the other side’s response. Follow the current request status and contact-access instructions in the app.
04 / A SEPARATE DECISION
Use what you learned. Then decide.
An interview can help both sides assess the work. It does not guarantee a hire. If you decide to proceed, send and review a separate offer through the normal workflow, with its own eligibility and confirmation checks.
LESS ASSUMPTION / MORE USEFUL CONTEXT
Make the conversation work for both sides.
Jobseekers: understand the work.
Use the request and conversation to ask about the work and decide whether it fits. Reviewing an invitation does not commit you to a job.
Customers: choose the right path.
This interview path is for a matched Jobseeker. If you are discussing a price with a Service Provider, use the separate Quote Request pathway.
Explore Quote Requests ↗Understand the terms before sending.
Interview requests, work offers and ordinary matching are different actions. Check current pricing, any required balance and the request’s cancellation or scheduling terms in the app. Do not assume an interview is free, that a fee is refundable in every case, or that contact access is permanent.
A few clear answers.
What is an Interview Request on SquadGoo?
An Interview Request is a scheduling and screening step that a Recruiter or Customer can send to a matched Jobseeker. It is separate from a job offer.
Can an Interview Request be sent to a Service Provider?
No. Interview Requests are Jobseeker-target only. Customers use the separate Quote Request pathway when they need to discuss a service with a Service Provider.
Does accepting an Interview Request create a job?
No. The Jobseeker chooses whether to accept the interview request. A job offer remains a separate decision and follows the ordinary offer workflow.
Choose the path that fits your next decision.
Create the right account, complete the applicable checks and use the in-app request when a conversation would help.
