ABSTRACT
Imagine that you are applying for a job as an administrative assistant. The employer might interview you or administer tests of job knowledge or personality. The employer might also have you participate in a simulated work day. You are escorted to a desk with a phone and a computer and are told the simulation has begun. Soon, holographic images of your supervisor and coworkers appear, much like a science-fiction movie, and you begin your simulated day interacting with your computer-generated colleagues. The simulation is being scored to determine how well you handle the job requirements. Good luck; your evaluation has started.
