Adaptive Immersion Revolutionizes the Next Generation Workforce

Since 2011, Adaptive Immersion has been using technology-enabled assessments to enhance hiring, training, and on-the-job experiences for employers, team members, and candidates.

Our talented team of researchers and technology professionals began by blending psychology, technology, and science to optimize human performance in military training and jobs, supporting diverse domains from special operations to drone operators, military aviation, combat casualty care, and more.

With extensive expertise in industrial/organizational psychology, virtual reality, game and simulation development, human factors, artificial intelligence, data science, and DevOps, we’ve expanded beyond military-grade training to commercial positions.

We craft customized assessment scenarios, offering over 25 captivating recruitment and skills assessments tailored to meet specific job or mission requirements. These assessments combine interactive, game-based, and virtual reality simulations that assess practical skills and essential competencies like initiative, leadership, dependability, effort, attention to detail, adaptability, persistence, and integrity.
