Virtual Reality HR Innovation

We are revolutionizing the hiring and coaching process by using virtual reality as a behavioral assessment tool

How it works

Hiring is Hard

You need to evaluate the perfect fit for the team — but candidates are unpredictable.

• Impression management means you only see what a candidate wants you to see.
• Real behaviours often only surface after you've hired a candidate and committed resources.
• Mis-hires cost more than their salary. You lose training time, productivity, morale, reputation — and all the benefits of having made the right hire.

​Success relies on finding the right people. ​​That's why AlignVR reinvented the hiring and coaching process.

 

How it Works

Soft skills are used in organic, social environments. They should be assessed and trained under the same conditions.

Recruitment

AlignVR induces natural behaviors so that recruiters can see people as they really are. A candidate presents their best self, but potential employers need to see their truest self. Among other factors, the immersive nature of social virtual reality experiences makes this possible.

Team Building and Coaching

AlignVR predictably manufactures social situations that feel natural and draw out real soft skill tendencies. Participants learn deeply about themselves and trainers drive hard results by identifying soft skill gaps within individuals and teams.

Benefits

Team Building

Training

• Results: participants retain learning because it happened to them
  
• Self-reflection: as participants reflect on their own behavior during the experience, they tend to ask, ‘why.’ This is where change begins
  
• Trainers are able to identify problems that usually do not show themselves otherwise

Science + Technology

At its core, AlignVR is a technology that inhibits impression management; a person’s mental effort to manage how they are perceived in a social situation. We have combined decades of research in order to refine our process to the point where we can create authentic moments that are free of impression management. These authentic moments can be used to evaluate a candidate, integrate them into a team, and develop them over time.
