Time-constrained challenges
Teams had to solve the puzzles and complete their mission within 30 minutes, adding a layer of urgency and stress to better assess their performance.
Bilingual Execution
The escape room was conducted in both French and English to evaluate the candidates’ proficiency in both languages.

Outcome
The custom escape room was a success, providing Majorel with a comprehensive evaluation tool for their candidates.
