I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Ubisoft (Paris) in May 2013
Interview
interview process was based on skills. They met me at a games competition where I was recommended, having won to work with a big company. I applied as an intern at Ubisoft. They take kindly to those having the skills they require, portfolio showing this would be the best way. Not just because I did this but because they are even more competitive now then before.
L'entretien s'est bien passé, malheureusement je n'ai eu qu'un seul entretien car je n'ai pas été retenu. Je suis tombé avec quelqu'un avec qui j'ai parlé pendant une trentaine de minute avec quelques question techniques.
