Talent measurement firm SHL has launched its 3D Graduate Talent Simulation solution, a series of animated assessments including avatars and video.

The company says in a statement the new product will “level the playing field in the graduate market and is in response to industry demand as companies struggle to differentiate between high quality graduates suitable for the workplace and cope with the surge of graduates applying who have similar academic performance”.The tools allow an employer to predict candidate behaviour, with graduates presented with short animated video clips of several real-life job scenarios and their responses can be used to determine a candidate’s suitability for a particular role.

Dr Ken Lahti, vice president for product development & innovation at SHL, says: “The battle for talent is being fought at the graduate level.

“Companies know that these candidates are key to building future leadership and operational capabilities. However, while recruiters report being inundated with applications they still have difficulty finding top talent using their existing processes and tools.”
