Talos allows you to setup your own availability slots within the Interview Booking feature, which gives other members of the recruitment team visibility of your availability to conduct interviews with candidates.
Creating a Global Slot
To create your availability slots, known as 'Global Slots' in Talos, you will need to access the Interview Dashboard and click on the 'Add Availability' button:
By default, the availability will be for your own user account, however, this can be changed so you are able to setup availability slots for other users if these are known. You can also select if you would like to setup a single slot, or multiple slots and the time-zone for these slots:

You can view the newly created slot within Interview Dashboard:
Multiple Slots

Selecting a Global Slot
Any global slot that is setup for a user, that is in the future, will be available to select if that user is the primary interviewer when booking an interview for a candidate.

Any of these slots can be selected, however, a global slot can also be selected on other roles are the same time. Once a candidate has confirmed their interview, they will then 'take' this slot and it will be removed from any other job post it has been linked to when booking an interview.
