Happy August! 🎉 We've been working on updates to help your teams hire faster and smarter so you can connect with the best talent out there. 

Here's the latest feature releases and improvements.

Candidate Inbox

New Overview tab in the advanced candidate profile

Last month, we introduced new tabs in the candidate profile that show your candidate's interactions with campaigns, events, and the talent community. This version, we're happy to announce the new Overview tab, which brings the entire candidate story into one view. Instead of viewing details application by application, you’ll see a consolidated timeline of the candidate's history, providing a clear history of all interactions. This streamlined view simplifies candidate review and helps you easily follow a candidate’s journey and access key information at a glance. 

Learn more about the candidate profile, the candidate inbox, and the recruiting dashboard.

New permissions to restrict user access to applications

We've added a new Unassigned Lead Visibility permission setting. This feature allows your organization to control user access to applications, ensuring that sensitive candidate data interactions align with your internal policies and regulatory requirements. It's about giving you more precise control over data visibility. For more details on setting this up, please reach out to your CS Representative.

Conversational Scheduling

Interviews page overhaul

We know how frustrating it is to juggle fragmented tabs and constantly reset filters. Because of this, we've completely redesigned the Interviews page to transform how you manage your interview workload. This new interface provides more powerful tools, including enhanced customization and advanced filtering, helping you manage everything efficiently and save significant time previously spent on fragmented tabs and filter resets.

Microsoft Teams integration

We're excited to announce a new integration designed to streamline your internal communications for scheduling candidates! Paradox is now integrated with Microsoft Teams, allowing your AI assistant to send important interview alerts, reminders, and follow-up actions directly to recruiters and hiring managers within their Microsoft Teams environment.

This integration helps you:

• Meet your team where they work: Deliver notifications seamlessly to an internal communication platform many of your teams already use.
• Speed up communications: Get quick actions and responses from internal users faster than traditional email.

Please reach out to your CS Representative for more information on this integration.

Security

Candidate two factor authentication (2FA)

To ensure candidate data remains private and secure, candidates are now required to enter a one-time verification code to access specific links within their conversation. This enhancement bolsters data security by requiring candidates to verify their identity via a one-time code sent to their preferred communication method before they can access their information. Additionally, candidates will see a new and improved verification page.

Learn more about candidate 2FA.

User two factor authentication (2FA)

To strengthen the security of your internal accounts, we have automatically enabled Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) for all Paradox users who are not currently using Single Sign-On (SSO). This adds a required second step to the login process, where users will enter a one-time passcode sent to their email address. This enhancement significantly strengthens the security posture of your accounts, adding that extra layer of protection and trust.

Forms

Document selection fields now support list select attributes

We've improved our document fields to now support list select attributes, enabling smarter, compliant workflows, especially for critical forms like the I-9. This update allows for parent-child relationships between document sections, ensuring hiring teams only see relevant options based on previous selections.

Global date formatting 

To reduce confusion for our global users, offers and forms now support displaying dates in local formats (e.g., DD/MM/YYYY). This enhancement ensures dates are clear and familiar, significantly improving the experience for candidates, hiring managers, and recruiters outside the United States, particularly across APAC, EMEA, and other regions.
