Second Life is definitely the talk of the town these days, with no less than 3 articles devoted to it in print magazines and scores of online articles.
Neojobmeeting is a recruitment initiative on behalf five large companies in France (Consulting firms Unilog & Cap Gemini, cosmetics giant L’Oréal, Alstom, Areva) to branch out into Second Life for their real life recruitment.
Potential candidates are invited to join Second Life and visit the Unilog pavillion on the game and explore career opportunities, much like in any real life trade show.
This comes hot in the footsteps of the French electoral campaign where, after having exhausted all other multimedia venues, some candidates attempted to gain popular approval by hosting events on the game.
It seems that France is definitely starting to take Second Life seriously enough for major economical players to take notice of it.
