Redwood Experience: Walk-in Registrations for Hiring Events
Let unregistered, walk-in candidates register and check in to hiring events through a single flow, directly at the check in kiosk.
When event owners create new events, they select a new checkbox called Enable walk-in registration for this event.

On the day of the event, the check in kiosk screen provides the option of checking in using an email address or phone number, or by selecting a link to register.

Since walk in candidates aren’t yet registered, when they enter an email address or phone number, they’re prompted to scan a QR code, which opens the registration flow on their mobile device.
QR code allows candidates to register on the day of the event.
Candidates follow the registration flow in their own device, and they’re automatically checked in to the event.
Similarly, when walk-in candidates select the Click here if you haven’t registered for the event link, they’re be prompted to scan a QR code, which opens the registration flow on their mobile device. Once registered, they’re automatically checked in.
