Got an assessment invitation but cannot take it right now? You can pick a time to do it later and get an email reminder when that time comes.
What it is
Scheduling is a commitment to yourself, not a lock. When you pick a time, three things happen:
You get a confirmation email right away
You can save the appointment to your calendar (Google Calendar, Outlook or an
.icsfile)You get an email reminder at the time you picked
Even after scheduling, you can still start earlier. The time is there to remind you, not to lock you out.
How to schedule
Open the invitation link you received by email. On the Instructions screen, click Schedule for later, next to Continue.
Pick the day and the time:
Click the day you want on the calendar
Set the time in the field on the right
Check the time zone shown below the field
Click Confirm
Days that are not available fall outside your invitation deadline. The cut-off date is written right below the calendar.
Save it to your calendar
Once you confirm, you see a summary of your appointment and the shortcuts to save it.
Google Calendar and Outlook open the event already filled in
Download .ics gives you a file that works in any calendar app, including on your phone
Reschedule or cancel
You can change your mind as many times as you need. Open the invitation link again: a note about your appointment shows at the top of the instructions, with a Reschedule link.
Notice the Continue button is still there: you can start the assessment before the scheduled time if you are ready.
To drop the appointment, click Reschedule and then Cancel schedule. Your invitation stays valid.
Frequently asked questions
I cannot see the “Schedule for later” button. Why?
The feature is optional and the company running the assessment may have turned it off. It also does not show once you have already started the assessment.
Can I pick any date?
Only within your invitation deadline. If the company also set an opening and closing window, your time has to fit inside it.
Which time zone is used?
Your browser time zone, which is written below the time field. If it differs from the company time zone, a link to switch appears.
If I miss the scheduled time, do I lose the invitation?
No. Scheduling does not change your invitation deadline. You can still take the assessment until it expires.
I did not get the reminder email.
Check your spam and promotions folders. If the scheduled time passed a long time ago, the reminder is not sent so it does not mislead you. You can open the invitation link at any time.
