IKEA and Roblox have recently collaborated for a campaign titled ‘Careers done different’ aiming at attracting a new generation of co-workers. They are launching together a virtual store set to open on June 24th, which is designed to introduce users to different roles and career progression routes, inspired by real-life jobs, at IKEA. One of those games ‘the co-worker game’ will be providing paid opportunities for Roblox players, with the same pay as London co-workers. Why it is important? 🤖 This is the first time any brand launched a paid working opportunity on Roblox to show how careers can be done differently, showcasing how companies are becoming more flexible and adapting to new digital landscapes. Applicants can apply through a questionnaire and submitting a CV, if successful, they are invited for a digital interview if successful. Source: https://lnkd.in/ebj7Rzi3
