Canadian bank launches immersive virtual reality program for interns TD_Canada Sponsored
, an enterprise VR company, to plan the logistics of the program and build out what these virtual reality spaces would look like.
While the virtual reality component of this pilot program helps connect this cohort of TD students across Canada, Sanders says it was important to keep the internships a hybrid experience. The second space is meant to be more informal, with more cartoonish avatars. There, students could unwind, network and play games like ping pong, basketball, Pictionary and more.
“This pilot program to me was just next level,” says Hallock. “I've had internships outside of TD and I've never seen anything quite like this. The program has innovative technology that I think will only get bigger and better, so I knew that I had to be a part of it otherwise I'd be missing out on a great opportunity.”
“It's a learning experience that still has me in awe. There's so much for you to see and do. And an intern can work out and play games with people like they've never done before. Who wouldn't want that kind of workplace?”Sanders mentions that, while TD will be running a survey for the students to talk about their experience in the pilot, the initial reaction has been positive.
