Default Agent Templates
Default agent templates are pre-configured interview workflows that automatically apply when you create a new interviewer in your workspace. This feature helps you maintain consistency and speeds up the agent creation process.
How Auto-Apply Works
When you create a new interviewer, the system automatically checks if your workspace has a default template configured. If found, it creates the new agent using that template's settings, including:
Interview stages (form, resume, SMS, voice)
Question configurations
Evaluation criteria
Workflow settings
This auto-apply happens silently in the background when you start creating a new agent from the main creation page.

Setting Up a Default Template
Step 1 Create or Choose a Template
First, you need to have an interview template created. You can:
Create a new template from scratch

Use an existing template from your workspace

Create a template from an existing agent

Step 2 Set as Default
Navigate to your workspace's Interview Templates page
Find the template you want to set as default
Click the Star icon next to the template
Confirm your choice

Only one template can be default at a time. When you set a new default, any existing default is automatically unset.
Step 3 Verify the Default
The default template will show a Star icon filled with amber color and a "Default" badge to indicate its status.

Managing Default Templates
To Change the Default
Simply click the Star icon on a different template - the previous default will be automatically unset.
To Remove the Default
Find the current default template (identified by the filled star and "Default" badge)
Click the Star icon to unset it
To Use a Template Without Setting as Default
You can still create agents from any template without making it the default by clicking the "Use Template" button on any template in your list.

Template Management Interface
The Interview Templates page provides these actions for each template:
Use Template - Creates a new agent from this template
View - Preview the template configuration
Edit - Modify the template settings
Star icon - Set or unset as default template
Delete - Remove the template permanently
Benefits
Consistency: Ensures all new agents follow your organization's standard interview format
Speed: Skips the initial configuration steps for common agent types
Quality: Maintains best practices across all interviews
Flexibility: You can still modify the agent after it's created from the default template
Important Notes
The auto-apply only works for new agent creation, not when cloning or editing existing agents
If no default template is set, you'll go through the normal agent creation flow
You can unset the default template at any time to disable auto-apply
Template management is available through the Interview Templates section in your workspace
Tips for Best Results
Create templates for common interview types (technical, behavioral, screening)
Test your template thoroughly before setting it as default
Keep your default template updated with your latest best practices
Consider creating different templates for different roles or departments
