Creative Execution

The Average Employees are a male and female “virtual employee” created by their average values. The face is our company’s average male and female face created by combining the photos of employees. The voice is also our average voice created by combining the voice data of employees. Where our employees live, the number of Facebook friends they have, and even their daily schedule… This execution became an exact mirror image of our employees with the averaged appearance, personality, and various personal information.

The Average Employees was a huge hit, contributing to a better understanding of our company with a boost in applicant numbers. More detailed results is as follows: ・Job applications rose 24.1 percent compared to the previous year. ・The website was accessed over 1 million times in the first week. ・It was shared on Facebook more than 10,000 times. ・Now, there is an offer to create “The Average Employees” from different clients.

During job hunting, it is very important for job-seekers to not only research about the job, but also about the people who work for that company. Therefore, job-seekers take a lot of time to research about a company’s employees. In such circumstances, it was a challenge for us, a large company engaging in recruiting activities, to inform job-seekers about their company. In order for job applicants to get to know our employees quickly, we compiled various data from 500 of our employees and used their average values to create a male and female “virtual employee” called “The Average Employees”. We used the average values of appearance, voice, name, height, weight, place of residence, number of Facebook friends and spending habits to create our company’s male and female “lifelike employees”.
