Step 1 - Choose a Format
First, choose the interaction format you would like to set up.
Step 2 - Configuring Speeches
To configure a slot for virtual or In-person Speeches, select the date, as well as the start time and end time.
Please note that you are not setting up an actual Speech itself in this step: The start time and end time indicate the time window in which Speeches can take place.
If you are hosting a hybrid event, you will additionally have to select whether this format should be virtual or In-Person.
After you've selected the time window, you can define the format specifics. You can limit the number of talents and decide how many Speeches can be held at the same time.
"Duration of the speech" refers to the allowed duration for individual Speeches. You can choose durations starting from 10 minutes, while the maximum duration for a Speech is 240 minutes.
Step 3 - Configuring Sessions
To configure a slot for virtual or In-person Sessions, select the date, as well as the start time and end time.
Please note that you are not setting up an actual Session itself: The start time and end time indicate the time frame in which Sessions can take place.
If you are hosting a hybrid event, you will additionally have to select whether this format should be virtual or In-Person.

Step 4 - Configuring 1-1 Chats
To configure a slot for virtual or In-person 1-1 Chats, select the date, as well as the start time and end time. The start time and end time indicate the time window in which 1-1 Chats can take place.
Next, define the format specifics. "Duration of the Chat" refers to the allowed duration for individual 1-1 Chats. You can select multiple durations, ranging from 10 minutes to up to 240 minutes. If you do select multiple options, recruiters participating in the event will be able to choose all of those durations for each day of the event.
If you are hosting a hybrid event, you will additionally have to select whether this format should be virtual or In-Person.
Please note: it is not possible to host both virtual 1-1 Chats and In-person 1-1 Chats on the same day. If you are hosting a hybrid event with both virtual 1-1 chats and in person chats we recommend hosting those on seperate days.
Step 5 - Configuring Virtual Booths
Setting up a Virtual Booth only requires you to select the time window during which you want Virtual Booths to be available.
If you are hosting a hybrid event you will need to select the correct Virtual Booth, such as a Virtual one or In-person.

Please be aware that after selecting the format type "Virtual" or "In-person" for a hybrid event, this cannot be modified afterwards.
