Coffee for Closers: An Epic Interview with Smarter Faster Games Jason De Luca and Paul Roberts (Part 1 of 2)
We had the pleasure to sit down and immerse ourselves into an epic interview and gaming scenario with Jason De Luca and Paul Roberts of Smarter, Faster Games K.K. who pour their experience and passion into one of the most strategic recruitment training games on the market.
Not only is the game a completely relevant reflection of every situation recruiters will come across in their career but it is a tool where both veteran and novice recruiters can implement strategic ideas related to their specific business and sectors into a collaborative learning and mentorship environment.
The game allows people to experience real-life recruitment situations in a risk-free environment that creates a mentoring and brainstorming session without increasing the risk to relationships with clients, candidates or destroying the agency's brand.
