Senior Technical Recruiter

I wonder how the low experienced individuals with very limited skillset land positions as tech recruiters at Blizzard, Activision, Sony, etc! ... While I have extensive technical HEAD HUNTING expertise and been applying at thier doors for YEARS! And do not even get a CALL!

      Pros

      Amazing people, awesome culture, solid vision. I get to pursue my career in the video game industry at one of the biggest names in gaming, am provided opportunities for growth, am treated fairly and respectfully, and get to work with some of the best talent in the world. I can honestly say I look forward to going to work for once in my life - a place where I can use my skills to their utmost, enjoy the enthusiasm of my peers, and know that I am contributing to some of the best video games ever made.

      Cons

      Like seeing a behind-the-scenes documentary about a movie, being on the inside of a video game production takes some of the mystery and magic away. It's harder to enjoy video games as a pastime when you surround yourself with them at work all day.

        Pros

        I've been fortunate to grow my career over my time with Activision, where the people you get to work with have truly been the highlight. They're some of the most supportive and passionate I've seen, and getting to learn and grow my own skills through working with them, all while being able to work on and being empowered to make an impact on the single largest gaming franchise in the world... it's hard to imagine wanting to work anywhere else.

        Cons

        Not a con per se, but it can also be a highly demanding environment where you're constantly challenged to level up.

      Hello, does anyone know of Susan Riedel because she is my hiring manager and said I received the position although has not responded in a day. Is she employed at this company or is this a job scam?

      hey guys, i’m an early career professional and I recently interviewed for an entry level role in procurement. is it a red flag if it was hinted / mentioned a few times during the interviews that the role will be stressful? 🥲 I haven’t done much interviewing as I’m pretty fresh in my career so for them to explicitly mention it will be stressful was a first
