Seeking to evolve their workforce into a competitive advantage, select Eightfold customers have achieved significant results, including: a 49 percent increase in the number of employees finding their next role within their current company, a 58 percent increase in employees offered other jobs within the same company after their role had been eliminated, and 60 percent more highly qualified candidates applying to open jobs.

Industry-leading Product Innovation:
As a leading provider of AI-based HR offerings, Eightfold AI continues to push established boundaries in both product development and practical usage. Recent developments include:

The U.S. patent and trademark office recently notified Eightfold that it had examined and allowed for issuance a patent on Eightfold's invention titled "system, method, and computer program for automatically predicting the job candidates most likely to be hired and successful in a job." The invention relates generally to machine learning in human resource applications, and more specifically to using machine learning to assist HR teams in evaluating candidate and job profiles.
Eightfold AI was recently chosen over 50 competing solutions by the U.S. Department of Labor as a next-generation platform that could help military service members transitioning into the civilian workforce find their perfect employer match. Eightfold.ai was selected as the Grand Prize recipient of the Veterans' Employment Challenge designed to improve and modernize the Transition Assistance Program. During a final evaluation conducted by service members, instructors, and employers, the Eightfold.ai solution achieved a 96 percent approval rating, far exceeding the required 80 percent success threshold.
Eightfold announced the Career Hub, a central destination where every employee can find new opportunities, projects, mentors, learning opportunities, and more within their organization. Personalized and available any time, Career Hub allows remote workforces to continue their career progression at their preferred pace.
