Online meetings in Microsoft Teams are a big convenience for every user who regularly schedules remote recruitment interviews using this tool. Thanks to the integration, you can send an e-mail or SMS to the candidate with an automatically generated link to a Microsoft Teams meeting. eRecruiter will also send a confirmation to the user, so the meeting will appear both in the Outlook calendar and in MS Teams.
To enable Microsoft Teams in eRecruiter, the tools need to be integrated. You will need help from your company’s IT department, which has access to the Active Directory integration management panel*. Below you will find the steps required. Access to these settings in eRecruiter is available only to Administrators.
*Note: The integration is available only for Microsoft 365 Business accounts.
Instructions for eRecruiter Administrator and IT Department
eRecruiter Administrator
In the system settings, the Administrator goes to the eRecruiter Integration tab. From the list of applications, click Begin integration next to Microsoft Teams.
After clicking the button, a window will open: Connect eRecruiter with Microsoft Teams. It contains a pre-defined message for the technical team. The Administrator copies this message (using the button below the text) and sends it to the IT department.
IT Department
After receiving the message, the IT specialist pastes the provided link into the browser. A Microsoft login page will appear, for example:
The next step is to accept the permissions that eRecruiter requires from Microsoft: access to user profile login and access to online meetings.
After accepting the permissions, a success screen will be displayed.
The IT representative should then inform the person who forwarded the message from eRecruiter that the integration has been enabled.

Once confirmation is received from IT, each system user must log in to their own Microsoft Teams account in eRecruiter.
To do this, go to Your Account Settings → Application login and connect with your MS Teams account.
