SAP Endorsed Apps are a category of solutions from SAP's partner ecosystem that help customers become best-run,intelligent enterprises and are meant to deliver value with desired outcomes.

In early 2019 Paradox's AI assistant,Olivia,was accepted into the elite SAP.iO Foundries program in San Francisco,part of SAP's global network of top-tier startup accelerators. Soon after,Olivia became available for digital purchase on SAP Store and Paradox joined the SAP PartnerEdge® program to integrate with SAP solutions in a faster,more connected way to support businesses using SAP SuccessFactors® solutions. Paradox's solution quickly progressed through SAP's partner solution progression path from validated to spotlight app status. Today,Olivia is the only digital recruiting assistant on SAP Store using AI/machine learning (ML) empowered natural language processing to support communications in SMS text,live chat and email.

"Ecosystem innovations are essential to SAP's vision and delivery of the intelligent enterprise. We applaud Paradox on achieving endorsed app status for its conversational recruiting software," said Lori McNally,Global VP SAP SuccessFactors Business Development & Ecosystem at SAP. "Partners like Paradox are positioned to help us deliver on a vision and provide new innovations to our customers – quickly,easily and with solutions that have achieved premium certification and support of SAP."

Global employers that implement Olivia to enhance the SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting solution can elevate the applicant and candidate experience with personalized,timely communications to sustain engagement. Olivia's intelligence communicates uniquely to candidates in various stages of the application process including passive candidates that might not be ready to apply. Olivia directly assists active applicants to auto-progress through a typical application workflow creating applicant and candidate efficiencies which can be very strategic in high-volume hiring scenarios. Olivia's simple,conversational experiences are supported in more than 100 languages across the web,text messaging and messaging apps.

"Olivia has been an incredible enhancement to our SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting platform," says Gui Neves,Talent Acquisition Global Transformation Lead at Nestle. "Our ability to engage with candidates across 47 countries in 18 different languages 24/7 has been critical to achieving our hiring goals. We look forward to our continued partnership and success with SAP and Paradox."

With companies continuing to face significant hiring challenges into 2022,Paradox expects the partnership with SAP will continue to be critical as more clients discover how Olivia can help improve the candidate recruitment experience and automate recruiting work to reduce time-to-hire. SAP's endorsement adds to a year of significant achievements for Paradox,including its Experience Assistant being named Top Product of 2021by Human Resources Executive; acquiring Traitify — the world's fastest,mobile-first assessment platform; debuting on the Inc. 5000 List of America's Fastest-Growing Private Companies and being named one of Forbes' Best Startup Employers.
