[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Seven Eleven announced on the 5th that it will conduct the second half of 2021 new employee recruitment interviews using the metaverse platform ‘Gather Town’.

The interviews will be held over two days on the 6th and 7th, and competency interviews will be conducted for those who passed the document screening. Interviewees enter the metaverse interview venue and, when it is their turn, move their avatars into the interview room to have a video interview. Afterward, through the internship process and final interview stages, the final new employees will be announced in November.

Inside Seven Eleven’s metaverse interview venue ‘Seven Town,’ various booths are set up, including ▲company introduction video theater ▲major job introduction interviews ▲recruitment schedule guidance ▲recruitment Q&A. While waiting for their interviews, candidates can freely explore the metaverse space to obtain necessary information about the company.

A Seven Eleven official said, “Due to the spread of non-face-to-face recruitment processes across companies amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we have newly introduced a metaverse-based process in the second half new employee recruitment.” He added, “In the future, we plan to actively utilize metaverse technology throughout the recruitment process, including interviews, recruitment briefings, new employee training, and practical education.”
