Microsoft Teams is a unified communication and collaboration platform. It offers features such as chat, video conferencing, and file sharing to facilitate teamwork. The application integrates various workplace functions to enhance productivity and connectivity within organizations.
Key Features
Microsoft Teams integrates essential functionalities to streamline operations and enhance team coordination.
- Unified Calendar Management: Teams offers a unified calendar experience that integrates directly with Outlook, allowing users to manage schedules, create meetings, and view shared team calendars within a single platform. This synchronization ensures consistent appointment and availability tracking across both applications, facilitating efficient organization of candidate interviews and team meetings.
- Shared Email Functionality: Each team within Microsoft Teams is equipped with an automatically created shared email address, enabling all members to collectively receive and access incoming communications relevant to specific projects or hiring efforts. Organizations can also integrate their existing email services with Teams to manage meeting invitations and maintain consistent correspondence.
- Streamlined Collaboration and Organization: The platform supports organized communication through channels that segment discussions by topic or department, which is valuable for managing various stages of a recruitment pipeline or specific talent pools. Customizable views and filtering options for meeting types further aid teams in maintaining focus and organization on critical tasks.
Microsoft Teams ATS Integration
Manatal integrates with Microsoft Teams by enabling users to generate Microsoft Teams meeting links directly within the Manatal platform. When a Manatal account is integrated with Outlook 365 and an active Microsoft Teams subscription is in place, users can generate these meeting links while creating activities. The generated link then automatically synchronizes with Microsoft Teams, appearing in the corresponding meeting invitation.
Use Cases

- Effortless Virtual Interview Setup: Recruiters can quickly generate Microsoft Teams meeting links directly within Manatal when scheduling candidate interviews, eliminating the need to navigate to external platforms for meeting creation.
- Unified Scheduling Workflow: All interview scheduling, including the creation of virtual meeting links, can be managed from a single platform, simplifying the coordination of recruitment activities and ensuring consistency.
- Automated Meeting Link Distribution: Generated Teams meeting links automatically synchronize with meeting invitations, ensuring seamless and accurate communication of virtual meeting access to candidates and internal teams.
