| Description of the Dataset | The resource is an immersive Virtual Reality (VR) training program designed to support individuals at various stages of their career journey, including students, graduates, and early-career professionals. The training focuses on developing critical communication skills, managing anxiety, and learning effective techniques for answering interview questions. By offering a safe and interactive environment, the VR training enables participants to gain practical experience and confidence in navigating job interviews. Thus, using state-of-the-art VR technology, this training serves as a robust tool for applied learning, empowering users to approach job interviews with confidence and competence. The training is semi-automated. A human instructor is necessary to guide the interviewee through the interview. The training includes classic interview questions, scenario-based vignette questions, salary negotiation simulations, and follow-up questions to customize the experience based on participant responses. The VR format provides a virtually mediated setting, allowing learners to practice interview scenarios in an engaging and realistic manner. The training was empirically validated through a multi-wave intervention study with a control condition, involving 114 participants. The results demonstrated its effectiveness in enhancing participants' preparedness for job interviews and reducing interview-related anxiety. |
