Orion Genesis · Narrative mini-RPG assessment
Make assessment part of a journey candidates can follow.
Orion Genesis turns career exploration into a narrative assessment that helps Adecco understand candidates' skills.
The objective
Game2Value and Adecco needed a format for the EU-funded DIGITAL4Business project that kept candidates engaged long enough to assess soft and hard skills.
The brief called for behavioral evidence beyond static assessments and lengthy surveys.
The experience
Players explore themed maps, join a guild reflecting a career archetype, and complete mini-quests and quizzes.
Each segment acts as a mini-assessment. Players receive a personalized Attitude Licence, while Adecco receives comparable matchmaking data.
