XOR is a technology company headquartered in San Francisco, California , which provides automated communication and chatbot solutions for the recruitment industry.[1] It is an AI-driven platform for recruiters and job seekers, aimed at automating recruitment processes. Tasks performed by the chatbot include data collection, candidate pre-screening, responding to frequently asked questions about a vacancy or a company, and scheduling interviews for recruiters.[2][3][4]

History

XOR was founded in 2016 by Aida Fazylova and Nikolay Manolov.[5][6] Initially the company’s operations were focused in Eastern Europe and Russia , with partnerships with X5 Retail Group and Headhunter.ru among others.[3][7]

In 2017, XOR began its expansion into the United States, Europe, and Asia. Between 2018 and 2019, the company tripled its sales in the U.S. and closed deals with over 100 customers in 15 countries.[8] Key partnerships include those with ExxonMobil, Ikea, Heineken, Aldi, McDonald’s, and Mars.[9][10]

Chatbot

The chatbot automates routine tasks involved in recruitment processes, such as preliminary assessments of applicants’ qualifications for a vacancy. Through an AI-driven conversation with a candidate, the chatbot gathers data, screens resumes, and conducts a pre-assessment.[11] It is also capable of responding to frequently asked questions, recommending suitable vacancies to candidates, and scheduling interviews with recruiters.[12][13]

XOR's chatbot is functional in over 100 languages and can be used to communicate with candidates through a number of platforms.[14] In a survey with participation from 10,000 candidates who interacted with the XOR chatbot, 93% of users rated the experience as excellent.[15][16]
