Before the call, not after
You see where a candidate is as soon as the interview report is ready. That is before you book a call with someone who cannot get to the job.
For recruiters
Know where your candidates really are.
Turn on the location check for a role. Each candidate can choose to share where they are, and the report shows the city, the country and the distance from the job.

Job location
The check compares each candidate with the location of the job
A short notice before the interview.
The candidate chooses
This employer asks where you are taking the interview from. The employer sees your city and country, not your exact location. You can continue without sharing.
The candidate then answers the browser's own permission prompt. They can say no and still take the interview.
Nothing else changes.

Optional for the candidate, useful for you.
The candidate decides
Sharing is optional. A candidate who says no still takes the interview, and the report says Location not shared. You can ask them about it yourself.
City and country only
The report gives the city, the country and the distance to the job. It does not show a street, a map pin or the exact spot.
The location check is optional for the candidate and off by default for every role. The report shows city and country only.
Applicants who are not in the region
A role in London or Dubai often gets applications from people in other countries. Some cannot move in time. Some have no right to work in that country. Some did not notice where the job is. A CV may not say where the person is today, or may list an old address.
Finding that out takes a call. A recruiter who screens by phone for a day can spend hours on candidates who were never able to take the job, and none of those hours lead to a hire.
What the location check shows
When you turn the check on for a role, the candidate sees a short notice before the interview and can choose to share their location once. Their browser asks for permission, as it does for any site. If they agree, the report shows the city and country they interviewed from and how far that is from the job, for example Mumbai, India, about 7,200 km from London.
The distance is a signal for you to act on, not a verdict. A candidate who is travelling will show the place they are at that day. A candidate who is ready to relocate can still be a good fit. The check shows the fact, and you decide what it means for the role.
When a candidate says no
Sharing is a choice. If a candidate declines, or their browser blocks the request, they still take the interview and the report says Location not shared. It means only that you do not have the information, and you can ask the candidate directly.
A few practical details.
Is the location check on for every role?
No. It is off by default. You turn it on for the roles where location matters, such as a role in one city or one that needs the right to work in a country.
Does the candidate have to share their location?
No. The candidate sees a short notice and can choose to share once. If they say no, they still take the interview and the report says Location not shared.
What does the recruiter see?
The city and country the candidate interviewed from, and how far that is from the job, for example Mumbai, India, about 7,200 km from London. The report does not show the exact spot.
Is the location proof of where someone lives?
No. It shows where the candidate was when they took the interview. Someone who is travelling shows the place they are at that day. Use it as a signal and ask the candidate if you need to know more.
How does the candidate give permission?
Their browser shows its normal permission prompt after the notice. They can allow or block it, as with any website.
