Employers will have to adopt a much more open and transparent approach to communicating information and allowing contact with employees than is currently the norm. Secondly, the Digital Generation will expect to be able to virtually explore and even “test drive” jobs and organizations.

The Army’s experience shows that game playing and simulations can be used to help new recruits perform better by allowing them to experience training and Army life. And finally, employers should treat investments in games and simulations as a platform to support a wide range of recruiting, learning and performance development activities and goals. Virtual simulators are cheaper than real ones in many instances.
