Summary

Gamification: Make hiring fun Gamification-once associated with children and teens-is the talk of the town with regards to defining a workplace culture, fun activities in professional settings, and now, hiring processes.

Now, where to infuse gamification into the hiring process? As the name suggests, gamification incorporates game mechanics and elements into environments.

During interviews, one expects tests based on skills and personality in the tech hiring process.

These tests are one of the many aspects of an interview that causes anxiety in candidates even before they get to that part of the interview.

Gamification would relieve them to stay calm and take their time to gel in with the interview process and the interviewer.

Gamification in hiring is not an entirely new concept.

The most uncommon usage of gamification is in the United States Army Forces' recruitment, where candidates are tested to see if they can enter such a high-impact sector.
