About The Customer
IAG Restaurant Group operates three of the top 10 fastest-growing Jersey Mike’s Subs franchise restaurants in the Bay Area. The company has grown by providing catering services to employees of some of Silicon Valley’s largest technology companies. The high cost of living and low unemployment rate in the region make it difficult to attract and retain hourly employees. The company is led by President Jeff Henderson, who partnered with Paradox to improve the recruiting process.
The Challenge
IAG Restaurant Group, operating in the Bay Area, faced fierce competition for hourly employees due to the high cost of living and low unemployment rate in the region. Restaurant managers struggled to recruit talent before candidates were hired for other jobs, resulting in wasted recruitment advertising spend and loss of critical hours by hiring managers. As the company expanded its corporate catering accounts, hiring employees to support the additional business became increasingly challenging.
The Solution
To address the recruitment challenges, IAG Restaurant Group introduced Olivia, an AI recruiting assistant developed by Paradox. Olivia Capture and Olivia Scheduling were implemented to streamline the recruitment process. Olivia quickly captures and screens candidates, then alerts the appropriate hiring manager to schedule interviews. The use of text-based communication allows hiring managers to manage candidate interactions conveniently from their mobile devices. This approach has significantly increased interview show rates and reduced the time managers spend on recruitment tasks.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
