Issue of allowing the same interviewer to go into different interview at the same time slot #3684

Open nus-pe-bot opened 7 months ago

Currently, the app allows the same interviewer to be in two interviews at the same time slot as seen in the provided screenshot. The interviews being separate items in the interview list implies that they are different interviews. In the worst case, the hiring manager could mistakenly assign an interviewer, since the app allows this, into the two different interviewers on the same time slot and this could cause some issues with the hiring process.

Team's Response

While we agree that this can lead to inconvenient scheduling errors, this is still intended behaviour as it is our workaround for allowing group interviews (which is a planned enhancement as stated in the DG). More specifically, instead of Hiring Managers adding 1 interview with multiple interviewers and applicants, they can add multiple interviews at the same date and time for the same interviewers/applicants to signify a group/panel interview. In the next iteration when we implement group/panel interviews, we will disallow users from adding interviews at the same date/time for the same interviewers/applicants.
