π‘ To ensure your live session is successful, feel free to follow our best practice advice by reading this article.
To publish a live session at a job dating event you have to:
Understand the different types of live sessions.
Create your conference by completing the required information.
Choose your live session tool.
π¨ If the Live Sessions/Conferences tab does not appear, it means this feature has not been enabled by the organisers of the job dating event.
TYPES OF LIVE SESSIONS
At a job fair with live sessions enabled, Seekube allows you to interact with candidates by choosing one of these three conference formats:
| ROUND TABLE | WEBINAR | LIVE CHAT |
Max. no. of participants | 15 | 100 | 200 |
Max. no. of speakers | 9 | 9 | 9 |
Maximum duration (without freezing) | 90 min | 90 min | 90 min |
π¨ If you choose to use our default tool BigMarker, please take note of the table below (or familiarise yourself with the features of your chosen video conferencing tool):
| ROUND TABLE | WEBINAR | LIVE CHAT |
Participants: microphone + camera | β | β (via chat) | β |
Speakers: microphone + camera | β | β | β |
Screen and file sharing | β | β | β |
CREATING A LIVE SESSION
π¨ Individual interview slots are separate from live sessions. When you set up a conference, make sure that the speakers participating in the job dating event have no interviews slots that conflict with the live session timetable.
Once you are in the relevant job fair, go to the Live Sessions tab and click on Create Live Session:
π If you are part of a Seekube client company, you must choose which job dating event(s) you want to publish your live session in at the first step.
Then choose the format of your live session from the 3 types available (you'll find details of these in the first part of this article).
Next, fill in all the informations about your live session:
π‘ The speakers you want to add to your live session do not need a Seekube account; the link to the conference is sent by email.
You will then be invited to select which live session tool you want to use: BigMarker (our default external tool) or the external tool of your choice (Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, etc).
I WANT TO USE BIGMARKER (default tool)
At the tool selection step, after completing the information about your live session, select Seekube (BigMarker).
Test your equipment and connection by clicking on Test the Tool.
Check the boxes and click on Next.
When you reach the final summary step, make sure all the information is correct and click on Publish.
Your live session has now been published and the speaker(s) will be emailed the conference link!
π‘ To find out more about our default tool, feel free to read this guide.
I WANT TO USE MY OWN TOOL (Teams, Zoom, etc)
At the tool selection step, after completing the information about your live session, select Other.
Copy and paste the conference link into the other tool so that participants can join you on the day.
Check the boxes and click on Next.
When you reach the final summary step, make sure all the information is correct and click on Publish.
Your live session has now been published and the speaker(s) will be emailed the conference link!
π¨ If you have chosen to use your own tool, unfortunately Seekube will not be able to fix any glitches in your live session.
So, now you know all about publishing live sessions on Seekube! Don't forget to read our advice on how to make sure your conference goes smoothly. π€
