1
Receive Interview Invitation
Starting on January 26, 2026, sites may invite you to an interview. No interview invitations may be sent before this date, and many invitations will be sent after this date. You may receive invitations from multiple sites, and each site may invite you to one or more than one type of interview. You will receive the interview invitations by email. You can also log into the Extern Match Portal to view your interview invitations. It is advised that all Extern Match emails and/or IPs are included on your Allow-List to ensure you receive the emails.

Schedule Interview
Interview events can be booked as soon as you receive the invitation. The interview invitation email provides a unique scheduling link where you can book an available interview time for that site. Alternatively, you can log into the Extern Match Portal to view your interview invitations and book your interview times.
You can only book one timeslot for each interview type to which you have been invited by a site. The system will not let you book two different interviews at the same time, nor interviews that are within 15 minutes of another interview you have already booked.
If you need to change a previously booked interview time, you can log into the Extern Match Portal and rebook yourself into another available timeslot for the site. Changes or modifications cannot be made after the interview event's lockout date.
