Play the gameHow it works
Start with a free practice game, or join an HR Lab simulation with the class code from your instructor.
Work through realistic cases: screen candidates, rate employees, read the data, and make the call.
See your decisions next to expert benchmarks, with the reasoning, so you know what to do differently.
Collect medals, earn certificates anyone can verify, and put your new skills into your resume.
See it in action
Your dashboard tracks your level, streak and medals. Every practice shows the evidence behind each answer, and every simulation compares your decisions with expert benchmarks.
Featured tool
Most employers screen resumes with software before a person reads them. The Resume Builder helps you write one that both can read.
Who is behind HRThink
For fifteen years I taught HR to university students and led an HR degree program through accreditation. I kept seeing the same gap: students could define HR, but few had ever made an HR decision. So I built HRThink, a place to practise.
What learners say
Rated by verified learners who completed a HRThink simulation. Every rating is counted. These are not official course evaluations.
No. All three practice games are free to play without one. When you finish, sign in or create a free account and your result is saved, so you can collect medals and track your progress. The Resume Builder needs an account.
HR Lab simulations run in classes. Your instructor gives you a join code or a link: sign in, enter the code, and the simulation appears on your dashboard.
Yes. The practice games and the Resume Builder are open to every learner. If you would like to take part in a simulation, send me a message and I will tell you how.
Your decisions are compared with protected expert benchmarks written for each case. You see what you did well, where you drifted from the benchmark, and why it matters.
When you reach the pass mark set for an assignment you receive a certificate with a code that anyone can check on this site. Certificates recognise completing the simulation; they are not formal qualifications.
A practice game takes about three to six minutes. Simulations are set up by your instructor, and you move through them at your own pace.
