For several years, recruiting has been one of the business processes that has best leveraged the potential of gamification. According to a recent article in
HR Magazine, gamification can be an effective strategy for talent acquisition because of the power to:
Trigger interest in job openings,
Enable (and reward) current employees to easily share job openings with their external network and get feedback on their contacts’ progress during the recruiting process,
Project an innovative image of the employer,
Give candidates a realistic preview of the job, and
Predict applicants’ future job performance.
