Step-by-Step Instructions for ATS Integration:

1. Log into Your Paradox Account:
   • Go to the Paradox login page and enter your credentials to access your dashboard.
2. Navigate to Integrations:
   • From the main dashboard, click on the Settings icon (gear icon) in the top right corner.
   • Select Integrations from the dropdown menu.
3. Select Your ATS:
   • In the Integrations section, find and select your specific ATS from the list of supported systems.
4. Follow the Integration Instructions:
   • Each ATS will have specific integration instructions. Follow the on-screen prompts to connect your ATS with Paradox.
   • You may need to provide API keys, account credentials, or other authentication details depending on the ATS.
5. Configure Data Mapping:
   • Once the connection is established, configure how data will be mapped between Paradox and your ATS. This includes candidate information, job postings, and application statuses.
   • Ensure that fields in Paradox correspond correctly with those in your ATS.
6. Set Up Triggers and Automations:
   • Define triggers for automated actions, such as sending candidate updates or notifications based on actions taken within the ATS.
7. Test the Integration:
   • Conduct tests to ensure that data is flowing correctly between Paradox and your ATS. Check for successful transfers of candidate information and application statuses.
8. Save and Activate the Integration:
   • After testing, save your settings and activate the integration to begin using it in your recruitment process.

Important Dependencies and Considerations:

• API Access: Ensure that you have the necessary API access enabled in your ATS. Some systems may require specific permissions or configurations to allow integration with third-party applications.
• Data Privacy Compliance: Be aware of data privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA) that may affect how candidate information is shared between systems. Ensure compliance during the integration process.
• Custom Fields: If your ATS uses custom fields, you may need to manually configure these in Paradox to ensure data consistency. Review your ATS setup to identify any custom fields that require mapping.
• Version Compatibility: Check that your ATS is compatible with the latest version of Paradox. Older versions of certain ATS systems may have limited integration capabilities.
• Support Documentation: Refer to your ATS’s integration documentation for any specific setup requirements or troubleshooting tips that may be necessary during the integration process.
• Testing Environment: If available, consider using a testing environment to validate the integration before deploying it in a live setting.
