news hardware Metaverse: Even Carrefour does it to pass interviews
The news surprised us all. Through a video posted to Twitter, Carrefour CEO Alexandre Bompard told us about his new way of interviewing. But then what do we find in this virtual world of Carrefour?
Carrefour, the pioneers of a new way of management
In recent years, startups and companies of all kinds have tried to get bogged down in management methods using various technological tools.
We could see it with the arrival of the Covid, The democratization of teleworking has allowed millions of French people to discover the joys of telecom tools via the Internet.
Discord, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, all of this software has been mobilized during this vague time of the pandemic.
Now it’s the turn of the metaverse to invite itself into our French management methods. Carrefour enters this new territory, surprising above all for its originality, but raising certain ethical questions.
Although Carrefour has not yet given a specific reason for acquiring the virtual land, it is easy to imagine that the company would like to make the most of this purchase, which brought it the princely sum of 120 Etherum, or around 300,000 dollars.
With the Metaverse Frame VR, Carrefour has dared to take this leap in technology. And for a good reason The company wants to hire no fewer than 3,000 data analyst and data scientist specialists
Originally idle since February 1st, 2022, Carrefour recently decided to construct large buildings on their virtual land. In total, the brand has acquired no less than 36 hectares.initially to conduct interviews, but there is no doubt who will try to use other facets of these technologies.
Placed alongside cryptocurrency and NFTs as flagship technology, the Metaverse uses virtual reality to create digital spaces where large numbers of people can meet.
For example, there are many examples of virtual classrooms that allow teachers to accompany their students when schools have become unavailable.
By using these technologies, the virtual world of tomorrow is gradually being built and suggested some abuse, as seen in the addition of advertising and a democratization of NFT speculation.
In itself, if we could imagine a better world, it is not to the liking of the big companies, who above all want to look for ways to make all available plots of land, even virtual ones, even more profitable.
With these recruiting assignments in the metaverse Carrefour intends to follow in the footsteps of American companies like Walmart which offered customers the opportunity to shop online directly with their VR headsets.
