Joining a meeting where the BrightHire Teams app has already been added
The BrightHire teams app can be preconfigured to be added to your meeting by an organization setting or if another interviewer has joined the meeting ahead of you and added the app.
When you join a meeting that the app has already been added to, you will see the app in the top icons (or under the … More icon depending on how many apps your meeting has). Click on the BrightHire Interview Assistant icon.
When the app opens in the side panel, you should see a button to “Connect your account”. This will navigate you to BrightHire to log in.
Once you log in, the side panel will refresh and present you with the Interview Assistant for the in progress interview (if it has been scheduled or previously added by another interviewer).
