Asynchronous removes the collision
When the interview does not require a panel to be present, the only calendar that matters is the candidate's. Send the window, let them choose the hour, and the scheduling problem collapses to a deadline.
Design windows that respect candidates
Give a generous window, state the expected duration honestly, allow a device check beforehand and permit a single restart on a technical failure. Fairness here costs nothing and visibly improves completion rates.
Reminders beat chasing
Automated reminders at sensible intervals recover most of the drop-off that recruiters otherwise chase by hand — and the ones who still do not complete are a signal too.
