Web InBasket®

What Web InBasket^® is?

Web InBasket^® is the innovative platform, developed and property of Artémat, for the management of recruitment/assessment activities, matching the natural evolution of Digital Transformation in the company.

The experience and know how acquired over the years by the Artémat team has allowed the planning and development of Digital HR environments and tools capable of innovating and improving the procedures of:

RECRUITING
EMPLOYER BRANDING

TALENT ACQUISITION
ASSESSMENT

How does Web InBasket^® Work?

The Web InBasket^® is an individual role-playing that simulates a specific business scenario. The candidate is called upon to make decisions, organize work, assign priorities, delegate, manage information and solve critical issues.

The Web InBasket^® platform allows to make the observation context more realistic and dynamic, stimulating the skills needed for the role (e.g. resilience, problem solving, communication, team collaboration, analysis, etc.).

With respect to the traditional in-basket paper-based documents, the candidate can interact in real time with the other characters, managing business meetings and networking activities, replying to emails and chat, analysing and elaborating documents.

Quality Analyses

The HR can develop a quality analysis, investigating skill areas that are missed by traditional methods. In this way, it is possible to observe and evaluate the candidates’ skills in solving complex situations, adopting simple solutions for operational problems, orientation to the objective, rapidity of decision-making in high-risk situations, interacting and communicating effectively with the others virtual characters.

Customized Web InBasket^®

The Web InBasket^® platform is a high flexibility tool allowing a high level of customization on the basis of the corporate needs. Artémat designs and develops customized scenarios for its clients, through the following steps:

Analysis of the skills areas to evaluate
Definition of simulation storyboard
Definition of the methodology and observation tools (mail, chat, documents, professional social media, virtual meetings, etc.)

Design of the simulation events and the score scale per each skill
Planning and development of the reports
Testing
Release of the administrator platform for assessment/recruitment campaigns

The customized simulation scenarios allow to qualitatively evaluate different skill areas, such as, for example: result orientation, analysis and synthesis ability, organizational and planning attitudes, leadership, decision making, communication, problem solving and creative thinking.

It is also possible to insert events that simulate the operational reality in order to investigate and evaluate (assign a score) the candidate's hard skills (technical, economic, engineering, etc.).

Skills Ranking

Our Web InBasket

Artémat has developed three macro simulation models based on specific objectives and administration / evaluation processes

QUALITATIVE

The candidate faces the simulation context in real time: He/She uses his/her own communication style in order to write emails, documents, chat messages and schedule meetings, useful for managing complex situations. The HR can evaluate each single simulation event and assign a score (according the specific score scale) through the administrator panel of the Web InBasket^® platform.

AUTOMATIC

The candidate can make a real-time decision by choosing among alternatives pushed by the platform via email, chat and meetings. Each single decision alternative is linked to a new specific event (not-linear events), and so on until the end of the simulation. The final score and the report are automatically generated by the platform at the end of the simulation.

BLENDED

The candidate can make a real-time decision both by choosing among alternatives pushed by the platform (Automatic Web InBasket^®) and directly writing email and chat (Qualitative Web InBasket^®). The HR can evaluate each single simulation event, in which the candidate writes text, and modify the score the platform automatically generates.

MULTIPLAYER

The new innovative, effective and engaging tool for managing online and on-site assessment sessions. The participants, grouped in a team, face a common complex situation to stimulate the application of all the skills in target. By using the Role playing and In-tray methodologies, it is possible to make the observation context more realistic and dynamic.
