Navigate your interviews, invitations, surveys, and upcoming sessions from your dashboard on the Thalamus mobile app.
1. What is the Applicant Dashboard?
The Applicant Dashboard is your central hub for managing all recruitment activity in the Thalamus mobile app. From one screen, you can review interview invitations, track upcoming Events, complete Surveys, and access details for your next session — without navigating to separate pages.
Using a web browser instead? See the Navigating the Applicant Dashboard — Web guide for the full web experience.

A New badge appears on the most recently received invitation, helping you quickly identify the latest program to extend an invitation.
6. Interview Events
The Interview Events section displays all interview-related activity including scheduled, waitlisted, and completed events. Each event displays the event type, date and time, and where the interview is taking place, virtually or in-person.
Event cards use visual indicators to help you quickly understand the status and availability of each interview event.
| Indicator | Description |
| Blue card Border with Checkmark | The event is scheduled. The checkmark confirms you have secured a spot for this interview. |
| Left-panel Color Bar | Displays the program's assigned color for quick visual identification across events. Covering entire left side indicates an interview event. Color indicated only on the title indicates a social event. |
| Green Spot Counter | Indicates 4 or more spots remaining for this event. |
| Yellow Spot Counter | Indicates 3 or fewer spots remaining for this event. |
| Red Spot Counter | Indicates no spots remaining. The event is full. |
| Clock Icon | You are on the waitlist for this event. |
A scheduling conflict indicator (⚠️) appears next to an interview date and time when two or more scheduled events overlap. This indicator is informational and does not prevent scheduling.
| Note: The scheduling conflict indicator does not automatically resolve or cancel conflicting events. Please review any conflicts and contact the relevant programs directly if assistance is needed. |
7. Social Events
The Social Events section provides visibility into upcoming and completed social sessions associated with interview activities, including scheduled and waitlisted events. Each event displays the event type, date and time, and where the session is taking place, virtually or in-person.
8. Surveys
The Surveys section displays surveys assigned by programs and tracks their completion status. You can identify surveys that require action using the Pending tab and review previously completed surveys in the Completed tab.
Each survey card displays the survey name, program name, associated event, and survey type. Programs may configure surveys as Anonymous or Non-anonymous. When available, the survey type is displayed on the survey card. A Partially complete status appears for surveys that have been saved but not yet submitted.
Available actions on the Pending tab include:
Start — begin a new survey
Resume — continue a previously saved survey
Submitted surveys are moved to the Completed tab. Depending on how the survey was configured, you may be able to:
View previously submitted responses
Edit and resubmit an updated survey
