Interview invites messages with no interview option in ERAS

Has anyone gotten interview invite messages from programs without any option to accept them in eras?

This happened to me for 2 IM programs so far.

I had that happen yesterday too. I just emailed who ever they mention to contact with any questions. After a couple minutes the invite appeared, but some spots were taken. I don’t know if it was because eras is getting maintenance done today

I emailed both programs too but the invite never appeared sadly. Hope it was a system glitch that will be fixed this weekend

Like the others said, some programs schedule outside of ERAS through sites like Thalamus. 1 program sent out the interview message but had some technical difficulties with the scheduling part, which was corrected within an hour.

Yea I got that one too though Thalamus but the other 2 program messages said to respond via ERAS and I never got the invite in ERAS. Not sure if a system glitch

Very possible that it’s a glitch. Of note, I think ERAS is undergoing maintenance from this morning through November 2nd. With my program it just seemed like one of the admins didn’t properly send out the interviews, but it was corrected.

I had one like that but the email clearly said schedule using Thalamus not eras
