    Gamified simulation and observed behavior

    The ThriveMap approach

    ThriveMap offers a Smart Assessment Builder for job-realistic assessments and bespoke programs for high volume hiring. Its assessments use role-relevant questions, tasks and scenarios, with scoring criteria tailored to the employer.

    The TaTiO approach

    Choose from a library of virtual job simulations across frontline, operational and skilled roles, or tailor a simulation to your workflow. Candidates make decisions, prioritize work, identify risks and, where relevant, speak with interactive characters. TaTiO captures more than 150 data points across areas such as speed, accuracy, attention, safety, communication and problem-solving.

  2. 02

    Candidate experience and completion

    The ThriveMap approach

    ThriveMap offers branded, realistic job assessments that introduce candidates to the role while gathering job-relevant responses.

    The TaTiO approach

    TaTiO gives candidates a short, gamified mobile job tryout, typically three to seven minutes. They enter a visual work setting, respond to realistic events and may speak with interactive characters when communication matters to the role. Invite them by link, QR code or through an ATS.

  3. 03

    Scoring and calibration

    The ThriveMap approach

    ThriveMap works with employers on scoring criteria and weighting. Its bespoke programs can include validation and outcome data.

    The TaTiO approach

    TaTiO measures actions and responses while candidates perform the simulation. Its report shows job-relevant skills and can be calibrated to a client-specific success profile. Comparing this performance with an application helps recruiters identify possible skills misrepresentation; it is a signal for human review, not proof of fraud.

  4. 04

    Implementation model

    The ThriveMap approach

    ThriveMap offers a self-service builder, bespoke assessments and ATS integrations for existing hiring workflows.

    The TaTiO approach

    Start with an existing simulation in TaTiO's library or tailor one to the role and employer. Share it by link or connect it to an ATS. TaTiO supports straightforward API and ATS integrations, including result write-back, so recruiters can use performance evidence within their existing workflow.

03 Which approach fits

Which approach fits your hiring needs

  • ThriveMap may fit teams that want to assemble a realistic assessment using a self-service builder or commission a bespoke assessment.
  • TaTiO fits frontline and high volume hiring teams seeking demonstrated skills, a simulation library, and performance based evidence. Recruiters can review discrepancies with applications. Launch by link or integrate through an API.

04 The TaTiO advantage

See how candidates perform in the job

ThriveMap offers realistic assessments with flexible creation and delivery. TaTiO brings candidates into an interactive job simulation and turns more than 150 data points into a clear skills report. This gives teams a practical basis for skills based and performance based hiring, including a way to examine possible misrepresentation in applications. Its library covers a wide range of roles, with tailoring where needed.

For frontline and high volume hiring, the details of a candidate's actions matter. A warehouse candidate may spot a mislabeled pallet. A hospitality candidate may prioritize competing guest needs. A maintenance candidate may recognize a safety risk. TaTiO records how candidates handle these moments.
