    • A custom metric builder where you can define key custom metric details, such as name, metric type, start status, end status, unit, associated journeys, and description.

    Conversational ATS or Integrated Jobs Conversational ATS
    Enablement path No setup is required. Automatic logic update
    Users impacted User roles with access to create and manage job approvals (who have full access to the Approvals > Approval Requests > Job Approvals permission)

    You can now update the hiring team on jobs that are already approved in My Jobs without triggering new approvals.

    Why it matters

    Hiring team changes on already-approved jobs no longer trigger resubmission for approval, so you can update staffing without restarting the approval process. Approvers are not asked to review staffing updates they do not need to sign off on.

    What's new?

    • Hiring team edits in My Jobs on already-approved jobs do not trigger a new approval.

    Setup and activation ⚙️

    Why it matters

    You can keep existing jobs in sync with your external ATS and master feed targeting on each automatic refresh when your team has not manually changed that job's status in My Jobs, so ON, OFF, and Disable Application statuses can update from the latest feed without overwriting jobs.

    What's new?

    • A Master Feed Refresh Method setting in Client Setup, accessible when configuring the master feed, with these selections: 
      • Apply to new jobs only
      • Apply to new jobs and jobs without status updates

    Account setup (Paradox Admins/System Implementers):

    Only users with full access to Client Setup can configure the Master Feed Refresh Method setting. If needed, contact your Company/Account Admin or CS Representative for assistance. To configure:

    1. Select the All Apps menu in the upper-left corner of the header and then Settings in its drop-down menu.
    2. When the Settings page opens, select Client Setup under the Paradox Tools section.
    3. Client Setup will then open. Open the Job Management section under the Core Sections section from the left panel.

      • Apply to new jobs and jobs without status updates
    6. Select Confirm.
    7. In the upper-right corner, select Save to apply changes. 

    If you don't change anything

    Apply to new jobs only remains the default for Master Feed Refresh Method, so automatic master feed refresh behaves the same as today unless you change the setting.

    Minor enhancements

    Paradox Analytics

    • We've updated reports and dashboards so you can include custom hiring team roles as fields, available in the Jobs Current entity. This change affects Recruiter and Hiring Manager fields in existing reports.

    If your existing reports include Recruiter or Hiring Manager fields, ensure to re-add those fields to the report.

     
    • We've added a new Candidate Messages reporting entity and system template for reports in Paradox Analytics. This entity provides message-level data A.I. Assistant candidate conversations, including sender, delivery, question, conversation, and candidate context. 

    Content Management System (CMS)

    • We've updated the Terms & Conditions (in Client Setup), Candidate Q&A (in CMS), and Assist Responses (in text editor to support right-to-left (RTL) text formatting when users configure the languages Hebrew (he), Arabic (ar), Arabic Algeria (az-dz), Persian/Farsi (fa), and Urdu (ur). 

    Conversation Builder

    • We've updated the Document Upload question type in the Conversation Builder so you can set a file size limit between 1 MB and 10 MB per question to align document uploads with ATS and third-party file size limits. The default file size limit is 10 MB. 

    Events and Campus

    • We've updated the Event Notification Customization feature (available in the Event Builder). Event creators can now use the Include Email Calendar Invite toggle to turn calendar holds on/off when customizing event invitations for event managers and ambassadors.
    • We've deprecated unused settings related to the Candidate Orientation Event Roster feature, including the following:
      • Location Contact: Email Address and Location Point of Contact dropdown selections for the Set default employees groups who should always receive the event candidate roster for an orientation event that they are tied to setting, located in Event Settings.
      • Remove Customize when the event roster link will expire setting.

    Forms

    • We've updated the Form builder so list-select item values for list select custom attributes now display in the order configured in System Attributes. 

    Job Management (Job Distribution)

    • We've updated the Indeed integration so the <requisitionid> field passed to Indeed from the standard feed or custom feed now includes the right job ID. This update ensures Indeed's Job Update API can correctly map and update existing job postings.

    Journeys

    • We've updated Journeys logic so user role deletion is no longer blocked when a user role is mapped to Journey stage and status permissions. You can now delete any role from Roles & Permissions, and Journey Permissions automatically cleans up the associated permission data. Users assigned to the deleted user role are reassigned to the account's configured default user role.

    Knowledge Training Library

    • We've updated the Knowledge Training Library to auto-fill the names for uploaded hyperlinks and documents. 

    Platform

    • We've added Slovenian as a configurable language across the platform, so candidates and users can interact with their AI Assistant or use Paradox in Slovenian when the language is enabled for the account.
    • We've updated the Paradox translation feature so the #company-name and #ai-name tokens do not translate when the candidate uses a different language than the user language.
     
     

    Important enhanced job ID reminder

    In December's release (2.6.9), the Unique and Version Job ID toggle will be turned on for all accounts that do not already have it enabled. There are no retroactive changes associated to this toggle, meaning can safely enable it without risking data changes or disrupting existing job and candidate IDs.

    If you haven't already, work with your CS Representative to:

    1. Identify where Job IDs are used today: Review your internal processes, reports, feeds, and integrations that reference Job IDs to understand where the ID is currently used and how the transition may affect the experience.                                                                                                 
    2. Coordinate with your partners: Share this change with your external partners (agencies, career site provider, job boards like Indeed, etc.) so they can plan and implement any updates needed on their side. For example, agencies may need to make mapping updates to ensure jobs do not fall off from their connection.                                                                                                                            
    3. Align on your transition timeline: Work with your Paradox team to confirm a transition date that best fits your organization and partners, ahead of the automatic opt-in date. 

    For more information on this enhancement (released in October, 2.6.7), see the release note under Updates to Enhanced Job ID.
