In the UK’s most recent study in 2022, it was found that 46 percent of men and 32 percent of women played video games. Previously considered a pastime for kids and ‘slackers’, the world’s 3.24 billion gamers are honing a wide variety of in-demand skills – everything from teamwork and collaboration to critical thinking and decision-making.
ManpowerGroup has over 70 years of experience translating in-demand skills across different sectors and developing innovative approaches to connect talent to jobs they can thrive in.
