LONDON, January 31, 2024 (Globe Newswire) — London Business School (LBS) has introduced an interactive simulation using avatars developed in collaboration with Attensi to help MBA students prepare for job interviews.
Practice interviews improve the confidence and skills of students who are short on time due to busy academic or business school lives.
This innovative game-based solution offers far greater flexibility and allows students to participate in realistic interview scenarios at their convenience. In a real interview scenario, you may make mistakes and experience tension and pressure.
The LBS Career Center has traditionally offered extensive interview preparation resources, including one-on-one coaching and online resources. However, students struggled to find time to spend on these resources. They collaborated with his Attensi game-based simulation experts to devise a simulated reality solution.
Unlike static online resources, interactive simulation games allow students to engage in realistic interview scenarios, promoting adaptive thinking and building confidence in unpredictable environments. The program is mobile-friendly, so students can seamlessly fit interview preparation into their busy schedules, even if they’re using a laptop or tablet.
Priyal, an MBA student, said, “I was able to revise everything I wanted on the go, so even between two interviews, I could just find a seat in the cafeteria and do whatever I needed. The flexibility and practicality of this approach has contributed greatly to my confidence level.”
Due to the success of this program, LBS recognized its value in preparing students for real-world challenges and decided to incorporate game-based learning into the content of its skills curriculum.
This strategic move aligns with London Business School’s commitment to providing a cutting-edge educational experience that prepares students for a dynamic business environment.
“We were very surprised by this,” said Michelle Asbury, director of digital product development. “This type of product is absolutely suited to a business school environment. In-person interviews are make-or-break. Mock reality interviews give students a chance to fail.” , try again in a different way and learn from the experience. ”
“It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to use these simulation scenarios to help students perform better in interviews,” said Thomas Niven, managing director of professional and financial services at Attensi. This solution helps bridge the gap between knowledge and practical experience.”
Attensi’s solutions, including AI-powered training and people performance platforms, help people and organizations excel in more than 150 countries and in more than 50 languages.
