Exploratory interview
Interview or explore opportunities without starting the job yet.
Exploratory interviews can fit short-business visitor intent when you are not yet performing the role. Accepting and starting employment requires a work or talent authorization.
Visit vs work
Interviewing and meeting the team is often visitor activity. Onboarding, training as an employee, or doing the job while “visiting” is work — plan the correct authorization before day one.
