The integrations will enable new experiences to improve how organizations attract, retain, and skill their people.



Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says they're building on their long-standing cloud partnership with SAP and bringing together the power of Microsoft 365 Copilot with SAP SuccessFactors solutions to transform how organizations attract and develop their most important resource – their people. This collaboration aims to address the skills challenge, one of today's toughest business problems.

Closing the gap between the skills a work force has and the skills they need for the future requires optimizing recruitment and hiring processes in today's competitive market and delivering learning and development programs to help employees grow. However, these functions require a lot of manual, repetitive work and often miss the mark, constantly reinventing the wheel each time they create a new position, updating requirements, and ensuring job descriptions are market-competitive.

With this collaboration, SAP customers will benefit from the power of generative AI to attract the most qualified candidates for key roles and generate personalized insights to keep them engaged once on board. Through this collaboration and SAP's use of the Azure OpenAI Service API, SAP and Microsoft will work together on new experiences that streamline recruiting and employee development processes.

Imagine a world where AI-powered HR solutions are so advanced that they can predict your next career move before you even make it. Sounds like science fiction, right? But with SAP and Microsoft's new partnership, that's precisely what's on the horizon.

By integrating SuccessFactors with Copilot and Azure OpenAI Service, they're creating a future where HR is no longer just about hiring and firing, but about predicting and shaping the future of work itself. Get ready for a world where AI is the ultimate career coach.
