What's up guys?
Grats on downing the Ulduar star man and ToC. Hope all is going well with Agony! I really miss trying to keep you guys alive. :p

Is anyone interested in working in video games? I work at a game startup called Zynga, located in San Francisco. We make games on Facebook, MySpace, etc. We're looking to hire a bunch of people by the end of the year --- Flash devs, Web dev, product managers, etc. We work a lot of hours (why I quit rading). But, it's by the best job I've ever had. For a gamer geek like me, working on games is a dream come true.

If anyone is looking to change careers, please send your resume to eric.stender at gmail. I'll forward it along to our recruiters. Please include your WoW name (so I know who you are) and a brief explanation of why you want to work in the game industry.

More info at: http://www.zynga.com/jobs/

Hope to hear from you. :)

Cheers,
Emoney

Dammit, I need to graduate already, I would totally be all over this!

You would know if V was being a dick Emoney.

While being a dick is always a viable option for V, that's not what he finds amusing. There are many members of Agony both past and present who are involved in the game industry.

I guess you haven't figured out why I'm so amused by this ...

*Wonders how long Emoney will take to figure out that the person who hired him at Zynga is in our guild....*

You should let everyone know there's a $2,500 recruiting bonus in it for you if they get hired. ;) This is a small industry.. many of us are connected to it in one way or another.
