In-person interview invitation email template

An in-person interview email needs the same core details as any other invite, plus the practical notes that stop day-of confusion.

Hi [Candidate Name],

We would like to invite you to an in-person interview for the [Role] position at [Company].

Date: [Date]

When to use this template

  • When the interview takes place on site
  • When the candidate needs arrival instructions, parking notes, or reception details

Tips for writing the email

  • Put the address high in the email, not buried near the end.
  • Call out parking, reception, or building access if the location is not obvious.
  • If the interview involves multiple people or rooms, say that up front.

What to edit before you send it

In-person interviews create more avoidable friction than remote ones. Most of it comes from small missing details: where to park, where to check in, or whether the candidate needs extra time to find the building.
