As part of a new data and technology recruiting effort, IKEA is inviting candidates with creativity to a job interview over experimental 3D-printed meatballs. Throughout Europe, the company will establish more than 150 technology and innovation positions by 2022. As a result, it is looking for people who share its beliefs and vision: to make everyday life better for the many people.
More about the Opening and 3D-printed meatballsÂ
The world-famous Swedish meatballs are a staple of the IKEA menu. IKEA is now looking at new technologies to make them more sustainable. IKEA menus currently contain plant balls as alternatives to conventional meatballs, in accordance with their objective to offer 50 percent plant-based main meals in IKEA restaurants by 2025. The goal is to make better, more sustainable eating simple, appealing, and inexpensive.
IKEA is now encouraging applicants to bring their ideas and check out some experimental plant-based meatballs made using a 3D printer. These never-before-served 3D-printed meatballs are being provided as part of the company’s recruitment drive “Taste the Future,” which begins on February 1, 2022. The campaign intends to attract a wide and exceptional variety of IT talent through a one-of-a-kind, delectable, and thought-provoking job interview for chosen roles and people.
IKEA is experimenting with new technologies to bring its vision to reality, and 3D-printed meatballs are only one example. All in the sake of reaching out to more people and making a positive difference in the world.
“IKEA is embarking on a path to embrace data and technology in order to become more inexpensive, accessible, and sustainable in an omnichannel world.” People with imagination, of course, will play a significant role in this search. So we’re seeking for folks who wish to work with us to improve their daily lives. “This ad is a terrific way to start the dialogue,” says Pascal Pauwels, CIO of Inter IKEA Group.
“We’re searching for down-to-earth data scientists, future architects, cyber guards, unboxed engineers, and people with common sense.” “People who want to co-create a better everyday life at home for the many with limited financial resources,” says Karen Rivoire, Employer Brand Leader at IKEA.
The 3D-printer, captured in a short film that starts the “Taste the Future” recruiting drive, is the most recent technological advancement in food 3D printing. It has been designed to mimic the texture, flavor, and look of an IKEA meatball but without the flesh.
