Steps
It is also possible instead of creating a new step, cancel a taken step like an interview.
1. So navigate to the Steps section on either the relevant Candidate detail page or the relevant Job application detail page.
2. Click delete for the interview that you want to cancel.
3. If the planned interview date has not passed yet, an interview cancellation email will be sent to the candidate automatically (A planned interview with date lies in the past, a cancellation email will not be sent)
N.B. If you want to cancel an interview, but you do not want a cancellation email to go out to the candidate, simply edit the planned interview date to be in the past before deleting. This will stop any cancellation email from being sent.
