Who is Attensi
Attensi is a global company that redefines how organizations train and develop their employees. The company provides a gamified learning and development solution that simulates real-world scenarios. By turning training into a realistic, fun, and engaging experience, the company creates a learning-by-doing approach where employees develop skills through play.
What are the core values at Attensi
The company looks for candidates who can embody three main core values, which are deeply integrated into daily operations:
- Being a game changer: The company strives for customer impact, challenges the status quo of traditional learning, and values individuals who ask questions and challenge how things have always been done.

- Being people powered: The company recognizes its workforce as its primary differentiator and encourages team members to speak their minds freely, regardless of their title or tenure.
How does Attensi source candidates
The company utilizes multiple avenues to find talent. Candidates can apply directly through the company careers page or locate job openings on boards like LinkedIn, VentureFizz, Indeed, and Ot落地. Additionally, the company sees significant success when candidates take a proactive approach by reaching out directly. The corporate careers page lists the specific talent acquisition manager and future colleagues for each open position, and candidates are encouraged to connect directly with hiring managers or potential teammates on LinkedIn.
What is the interview process at Attensi
The company maintains a highly structured and consistent interview process across all departments, keeping in mind that the evaluation is always a two-way street. The typical stages include:

- Hiring manager interview: A 45-minute deep dive focusing on operational, role-specific details and getting to know the potential manager.
- Tactical assessment: A practical role play or take-home assignment designed to see candidates in their element. For example, sales candidates might simulate booking a meeting, marketing applicants analyze content improvements, and human resources candidates map out end-to-end recruitment strategies.
