First time accepted submitter funge writes "The Economist has an article on Work and play: The gamification of hiring about a start-up that lets you play games to show off your talents to prospective employers. From the article: 'The rules of Happy Hour are deceptively simple. You are a bartender. Your challenge is to tell what sort of drink each of a swelling mob of customers wants by the expressions on their faces. Then you must make and serve each drink and wash each used glass, all within a short period of time. Play this video game well and you might win a tantalizing prize: a job in the real world.'" http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=The+Gamification+of+Hiring%3A+http%3A% 2F%2Fbit.ly%2FKNtXry) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F12%2F05%2F27%2F143226%2Fthe-gamification-of-hiring%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dface book) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/12/05/27/143226/the-gamification-of-hiring?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
