I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Blizzard Entertainment (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
Even through Covid/Remote interviewing the process was very friendly, fun, and personable. I ended up doing 3 rounds of zoom interviews with the entire audio team and everyone was an absolute joy to chat with. You can really feel the passion the team has for the game and their commitment to the quality of audio. It felt like they really wanted to connect with someone that would share in their passion and none of the interview questions felt loaded. There was a genuine interest in who I am as a person before who I am as a designer.
