Officially Launched at The 7th Assessment Centre, Next Chapter Game-Based Assessment is Ready to Change the Face of Indonesian Recruitment
The prestigious event for HR practitioners, The 7th Assessment Centre by Intipesan, was successfully held on June 10–11, 2026, at the JW Marriott Hotel, Mega Kuningan, Jakarta. This annual event was particularly special as it witnessed the official grand launching of Next Chapter: Game-Based Assessment (GBA), an innovative recruitment technology developed through a collaboration between Level Up powered by Agate and the Anvesana Research Institute.
Before leading HR leaders and assessment centre practitioners in Indonesia, a session titled “Evolution of Assessment: Game-based Assessment” was presented brilliantly by Junialdi Dwijaputra (Head of Level Up powered by Agate) alongside Anjar Kartaputra, S.Psi., M.Psi., Psychologist (Director of Anvesana Research Institute). They dissected how games are no longer just entertainment, but highly accurate psychological measurement tools.
Key Highlights at The 7th Assessment Centre: Why is Game-Based Assessment Stealing the Spotlight?
So far, the biggest challenge in the employee selection process is candidate boredom while filling out hundreds of questionnaire questions (test fatigue) and their tendency to “manipulate” answers to look perfect.
On the stage of The 7th Assessment Centre, Junialdi and Anjar explained that Next Chapter Game-Based Assessment is here to solve these problems. Instead of asking candidates to fill out text questionnaires, this platform invites candidates into a virtual game ecosystem.

3 Competency Areas Tested Through 17 Interactive Games

Through the product demo showcased throughout the event, visitors could see how Next Chapter Game-Based Assessment utilizes 17 cognitive games and 2 office and leadership simulations to read the candidates’ true character objectively:
- Cognitive & Neuro-Science Tests: Measures core candidate abilities such as working memory to store and process information, processing speed in understanding situations and responding quickly, and problem solving to see how candidates analyze challenges and find solutions. In addition, this assessment also helps identify the candidate’s level of focus, accuracy, and cognitive flexibility when facing changes or pressure in work situations.

- Big Five Personality: Assesses the five main dimensions of personality, namely Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism, through the candidate’s real actions within the game. This approach allows companies to see behavioral tendencies, interaction patterns, and even how candidates adapt in certain situations more authentically compared to conventional questionnaires.

- Leadership Simulation: Candidates are challenged to act as virtual managers in various work scenarios, ranging from strategic decision-making, team management, to conflict resolution. This simulation helps identify leadership style, problem-solving ability, and candidate resilience when working under pressure.
