Rooster review
A Workday-focused scheduler with self-service booking, panels, reminders, and video links.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Rooster is interview scheduling software for recruiting teams that use Workday. It supports candidate self-scheduling, panel and multi-interviewer coordination, interviewer availability preferences, buffers, reminders, rescheduling, templates, workflows, analytics, and time-zone conversion. Candidates, interviewers, schedulers, and recruiting organizations can use it to coordinate interviews across teams, locations, and time zones. Its browser-based delivery keeps the product focused on web scheduling rather than native desktop or mobile applications.
Workday is the clearest reason to consider Rooster. The product provides Workday-native interview scheduling and an ATS integration, while two-way calendar sync connects with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. Video links can be integrated through Google Meet, Zoom, Cisco Webex, and Microsoft Teams, with 8x8 also supported. HiredScore and HackerRank extend the surrounding recruiting workflow, while SMS and WhatsApp support add messaging options. This ecosystem makes Rooster a strong candidate for organizations that want scheduling to stay connected to their recruiting system and existing collaboration tools.
The published commercial model is contact sales, with prospects directed to request a demo or contact the vendor. That approach suits organizations evaluating a Workday-centered scheduling process and needing to discuss their recruiting setup before purchasing. Rooster should appeal to teams managing frequent panels, varied interviewer availability, automated reminders, and cross-time-zone coordination. Teams that do not use Workday, want a self-serve purchase path, or need a platform beyond the web may find its focus less suitable. For Workday recruiting operations, its combination of workflow automation, calendar connectivity, video links, and scheduling analytics provides a focused option.
