As more and more talent platforms are utilising human-like avatars to help humanise traditional recruitment processes, At Play Interactive Talent remains at the forefront of innovation in the new era of employee experience.
Established in 2017, At Play Interactive Talent is the first to create an avatar-led, on-demand video interview solution, known for its world class UX design in humanising the video interview experience. This unique and innovative design introduces a human-like character that elevates the candidate’s experience to one that is more engaging, natural and intuitive. Not only does the solution allow more candidates the opportunity to be seen during the interview process, but it also enables employers to interview anyone, anytime, anywhere, and at scale.
South Africa and Africa is such a rich source of talent, and it is no secret that high unemployment rates affect employers and candidates alike. Designing technologies suitable for the African market requires a level of creativity, with due consideration towards digital inclusion.
At Play Interactive Talent’s clients utilise their solutions to counter inefficiencies in the talent acquisition process from interviewing through to assessment. Solutions like scientific interview methodology, mobi-screening, game-based assessments, and immersive leadership simulations enhance hiring practices from entry level roles to C-Suite appointments to ensure that only the top talent is selected.
At Play Interactive Talent has one simple goal: To give talent the best opportunity to shine, whilst enabling employers to acquire top talent through scientific, innovative, and immersive solutions.
Christelle says: “I believe that women bring something unique to the table when it comes to the technology sector - intuition, unique perspectives and resilience. Having these traits, no doubt, is able to assist us in crafting and elevating ground-breaking technology solutions on a global scale.”
