Multinational TD Bank Group is banking on the metaverse and virtual reality in hopes of attracting more young talent.

Recently, the company launched an immersive and collaborative TD Co-op/Intern VR pilot for early talent groups in the metaverse. 

“Our goal ultimately is that the student becomes our employee, that’s really important. This is one way of appealing to the demographic of the student, [providing] the expected and the unexpected,” said Irene Santos, vice president, global talent acquisition, TD Bank, in talking with HRD.

“They’re joining a bank, and maybe not expecting that they’re going to… participate in the metaverse.”

Several companies have started using the metaverse to onboard workers.
