## Connect Google Calendar

1. **Open Calendar**

   Select `Calendar` in the sidebar.

2. **Select Connect Google Calendar**

   Sign in with Google in the new tab. When you come back, Calendar shows your Google account.

You can also connect during your first setup, or select `Skip for now` and connect later.

## What Tandem sees

Tandem reads only whether a time is free or busy, not what your events are. Candidates see nothing from your calendar. When a candidate books, Tandem adds the interview to your calendar and sends invites to the attendees.

## Set your hours

Select `Availability` to choose the days and hours candidates can book, and your time zone. Changes save on their own.

## If candidates can't book

Check that Calendar shows your Google account and that your availability is saved, then select `Refresh`. To disconnect, select `Disconnect` next to your account.
