    The candidate timeline displays activity in reverse chronological order (most recent first).

    Each timeline entry includes:

    • Date and time of the activity

    • Activity type (for example, Test or AI Interviewer)

    • Activity details (for example, invite sent, attempt started, or invite canceled)

    • Available actions (for example, view, share, or download reports)

    You can also take actions such as reinviting candidates or add time to test directly from the timeline. Available actions depend on the activity type and candidate status.

Note: Timeline entries update automatically as new activity occurs.
