Purpose
Panel & HR Rounds cover live, multi-interviewer sessions: schedule the round, invite participants, and read back the consolidated report. Panel and HR are licensed independently. Today, rounds run in Microsoft Teams, where the Exterview meeting bot captures and scores the conversation. Upcoming: the Advanced Video Room, a built-in interview room for panels. The scheduling and read-back API below is shared across both delivery channels. Today every panel round runs in Microsoft Teams. The dotted path is Upcoming.Drive
