# How to Recruit and Remind Recruited Reviewers

On the [request form for your venue](/getting-started/hosting-a-venue-on-openreview/navigating-your-venue-pages.md), click on the ‘Recruitment’ button to recruit reviewers (and ACs/SACs if applicable). You can use the 'Remind Recruitment' button to send a reminder to Reviewers who have not yet accepted or declined your invitation.

{% hint style="info" %}
Recruitment can be done at any point.
{% endhint %}

Make sure to pay close attention to the Invitee Details on the Recruitment form. Invitees must be formatted in a specific way to send the messages otherwise the messages will fail to send and will return a status error.

> Enter a list of invitees with one user per line. Either tilde IDs (∼Captain\_America1), emails (<captain_rogers@marvel.com>), or email, name pairs (<captain_rogers@marvel.com>, Captain America) expected. If only an email address is provided for an invitee, the recruitment email is addressed to "Dear invitee". **Do not use parentheses** in your list of invitees.

* All invited reviewers will appear in the group venue\_id/Reviewers/Invited
* Reviewers who accept the invitation will be added to the group venue\_id/Reviewers
* Reviewers who decline the invitation will be added to the group venue\_id/Reviewers\_Declined.

You can find links to these groups on your PC console.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.openreview.net/how-to-guides/managing-groups/how-to-recruit-and-remind-recruited-reviewers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
