If you were recruiting pilots, would you evaluate them in a flight simulator or the cockpit of an Airbus? High-consequence jobs like piloting airliners require advanced simulations. But what about desk jobs? These roles also face significant risks - legal, financial, relational, decision-making, and more. How can we use job simulations to attract and identify top talent?
This talk explores:
Types of job simulators: Email, business, behavioral.
Theory: Why do simulations work? How?
