Using Shared Email Templates

Last updated: January 20, 2025

Recruiters belonging to different HackerRank Teams can share and reuse email invite Templates. Assuming that you are one of many recruiters in HackerRank, email invite templates created by you and all other recruiters can be shared and reused by all the members.

How to Share Email Invite Templates

Prerequisites

  1. At least one email Template must be created by you or other Recruiters in HackerRank.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the Tests tab. For the selected Test, click the Invite icon on the extreme right. The Send Test Invites page is displayed. If you have set a default email Template, the email editor automatically populates the editor with the default Template format.

  2. Click on the Templates icon—the Template window displays.

  3. Templates created by you are listed under the My Templates tab, and the ones created by other Recruiters in HackerRank are listed under the Shared Templates tab.

The ‘Shared Templates’ List

  1. Click on the Shared Templates list. The list of all Templates created by your HackerRank Team is displayed. The HackerRank email account displayed below each Template name indicates the owner of the shared Template. You can use the search bar to search from the list of Templates.

  2. Select a Template in the list to preview the contents.

  3. Click the Use this Template button, to use the selected format in your email invite.

Creating Your Own Template From a Shared Template

You can copy a Shared Template format into a new template. All the contents from the shared Template will be copied, and your Template will be listed under “My Templates.”

To copy the format from a Shared Template to a new Template:

  1. In the Shared Templates list, select a Template whose format and contents you want to copy into a new Template of your own.

  2. In the right pane, edit the name of the template, or make changes in the Subject or contents.
