We were recently funded by Bodyswaps to test out their VR software with our participants. Using the app, it allowed them to be put in a full virtual environment and practice situations such as interview practice and public speaking. The participant then receives feedback and suggestions from the software, which really helps with self-reflection and understanding their strengths & weaknesses. With the people we've worked with over the years, even a mock interview may feel too real and stressful. This allows them to practice in a safe environment, so when they feel ready and approach the day, they'll feel much more prepared than before. We've used Bodyswaps with our participants over the weeks, we've used it one on one and in group settings where it can also be interactive. Hooking the VR up to the TV so the group were able to see what the headset was showing the user. We can't wait to continue to use this over the year, it's a fantastic way to give the ever important soft-skills to those who feel they can't make it to an interview room yet. Or even to those who just want to practice freely so they smash it on the day!
