For events that are hosted by you, please follow the below steps:

  1. Click "Create Event +" to add a new event.

  2. Input the Name of the Event (tip: make it creative and capture the purpose of the session).

  3. When selecting who is organizing this event, select 'My Company'. This will allow you to add exciting and robust features to your events landing page.

  4. Write a Description that includes a few sentences about your company and what the event itself will entail so that candidates know what they are signing up for.

  5. Set the Date and Time.

  6. Event Type can be toggled to be either virtual or in-person.
    For a virtual event, include the link to the web-conference platform that you will be using in the "Link to Web Conference" textbox and any Instructions such as a password required to join (i.e., Zoom, MS Teams, WebEx, Google Meets) in the box below. It is important that you do not put the URL to join in the Instructions but in the text box above. For an in-person event, include the physical street address where you would have placed the URL.

  7. Add in any Questions that you might want candidates to answer ahead of time (tip: only add in questions that are important for your event).

  8. Build out profiles for any Speakers that will be a part of the event. (Note: speakers do not need to have an account on RippleMatch. And adding a speaker will not create an account for someone on RippleMatch).

  9. Set the Visibility of your event based on if your event should be Public on your company page, or if it should be Private to only candidates you invite to RSVP.
    Let us know if you want RippleMatch to automatically market your event to candidates based on their profile and algorithm for the event that you will build.

  10. Add any Cover Photo from the available selection or upload your own.

  11. Set the Event Owner to whoever is the lead recruiter on the event. This will not affect access to the event by your entire team.

  12. Set the Event RSVP Limit if you want to limit the number of candidates.

  13. Set Automated Reminder Emails set to ‘On’ if you’d like a reminder email to be sent from RippleMatch 24 hours before the event, and then again 15 minutes before.

  14. Customize the details that a candidate should input upon check-in during your event.

  15. Submit!
