To the unsuspecting public, the website appears to be a simple company profile of the Primatech Paper Co., with a simple Job Opportunities inquiry section.

Part 1: Registration

To use the system:

1. Call the phone number 1-800-PRIMA16 (1-800-774-6816)
2. At the main menu, select option 3 (Personnel) and listen to the message. At this point, the user is given a passcode MT36.
3. Visit the primatechpaper.com web site
4. Click the "Jobs" button (link)
5. Enter the passcode
6. Fill out the contact information form

An analysis of the page reveals that your answers to the 7 questions are evaluated to give you a code between 1 and 3. The algorithm used ranks every answer as either 1, 2, or 3, and then works out which one you answered most often. Thus it is a very basic form of personality test.

The answers are typed as follows:

Question	Type 1	Type 2	Type 3
If you work at a store and see a woman steal a can of soup to feed her family, would you:	Inform the store manager	Pay for it yourself	Ignore it
If you see a turtle lying upside-down on its shell in the middle of the road, you:	Run over it	Take it to safety	Avoid it
How do you reach conclusions?	Research	Logic	Emotion
How often do you put yourself above others?	Only if it benefits me	Always	Never
Are you fueled by:	Money	Passion	Routine
At a party, you are:	An eavesdropper	A gracious host	The center of attention
In stressful situations, you react by:	Emulating proven leaders	Taking charge	Avoiding it

Any type value can be obtained by simply selecting 4 or more answers in that type's column. It seems that "Type 1" would be most like Mr. Bennet's personality. "Type 2" represents a determined (but just) personality like Mohinder Suresh. "Type 3" represents a non-confrontational conformist personality.

Filling out the form will initiate an email like the following:

The first folder consists of a dossier for Hana, including several photos, Hana's Mossad psychological profile, and a medical diagram. In the fourth folder is a dossier for Sylar including a medical chart with GGeh81zu in the corner. This code can also be found on Hana's profile by combining all the blue letters in her text.

Promotional ad

Notes

• The Heroes360 promotional site should not be confused with primatechpaper.org, a parody-laden Heroes fansite.
• The Careers page on http://www.primatechpaper.com/wap gives users the option of signing up for updates. Doing so redirects to this page.
• The official Heroes site on NBC has an ad for Primatech paper promoting the toll free number 1-800-Prima16.

Trivia

• The questions asked of job applicants are the same questions asked of replicants in the Ridley Scott movie Blade Runner. The questions are used to distinguish real humans from the artificially engineered humans by overloading their emotional response.
• The domain primatechpaper.com was registered on October 31st, 2006. The registrant is listed as "Heroes", with Heroes writer and script co-ordinator Oliver Grigsby listed as the administrative contact. The website is hosted on the same server as NBC.com. As of January 10, 2007, the registrant was changed to General Electric Company, Internet Registrations.
