We examine the academic literature on the use of serious games, game-inspired design, game-like simulations, gamification, and other GBA used to support recruitment and selection activities. Based on our review of 35 articles, we describe the state of research related to GBA for recruitment and selection, including theoretical foundations, targeted outcomes, and game design elements examined or discussed within this literature. Based on our systematic review of the literature, we identify opportunities for future research related to GBA in recruitment and selection of employees.10 pagesEnglishAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalgamificationgame-based approacheshrrecruitmentselection10.24251/HICSS.2021.161
