Notes - Overview
Last updated: October 6, 2026
TL;DR: The GoodTime 'notes' field within every interview provides a valuable way to capture relevant candidate or interview information as well as keep your internal recruiting team aligned.
Common uses for the GoodTime Notes field are as follows:
Capturing/sharing interview specific context
- Such as additional candidate availability or notes about your interviewing team.
- When using the 'Queue' workflow it is common for the queueing recruiter to share scheduling context in the notes field. See: Dashboard - +Queue FunctionSharing Custom Cancellation/Reschedule reasons
- If you need to Reschedule or Cancel an interview, you can use the GoodTime Notes feature to share the context of the Cancel/Reschedule reason with any interviewers who may be impacted by these changes. See: Notes - Custom Cancellation/Reschedule NotesKeeping your internal recruiting team aligned
- Using the notes @mention feature allows for you to all a specific candidate and their interview to the attention of an internal team member. See: Notes - @mention Team MembersViewing and reusing notes while scheduling
- Candidate notes can be previewed from the candidate dashboard, availability selection page, confirmation page, and interview drawer or side panel. Notes are not previewable inside Advanced Settings.
- Text copied directly from the rendered Candidate Notes view should paste into external applications. If copying still does not work after the current fix, contact support so they can investigate.
