So, without complex processes the sim can be valuable in filling the gap to determine a applicants value.

ATI & ABX use older simple interview methods of a meet with HR/CP (most of which aren't even trained well on the do's and don'ts), a little online or offline test, and then a sim. No situational based timed scenarios, no psychometric testing, etc.

Hey, we're old school and proud of it <yikes!>
