GreenHouse BotRyan D'souzaChristiane MartinThere was an issue with several developers missing their interviews, which causes interviewees to have a bad interview experience and be less likely to refer Symphony to their friends. This bot aims to fix that issue by reminding interviewers that they have an interview 30 minutes before their interview begins. Because the bot interacts with the Greenhouse API and not Google Calendar, this bot will always have the latest and most relevant information, and is therefore more than just a Google Calendar Pop Up Reminder.Java, using IntelliJ as an IDE and Maven to manage dependencies
