Nintendo Begins Large Recruitment Campaign
Nintendo Company Limited has begun a large recruitment campaign for experienced and veteran development personnel to join their Kyoto plants and Tokyo plant. The proposed increase in staff comes at no surprise considering that the company is planning to open an entirely new facility in Kyoto strictly for software and hardware development. The new facility was proposed by Satoru Iwata to not only house a greater amount of employees, but also to create an efficient synergy between them. With work demands increasing thanks to more involved hardware in the Wii U and 3DS, the company has pledged to meet the challenges head on.
The company is currently undertaking two different recruitments. One being for veteran developers that already have experience in the industry. The second being the new college graduate recruitment typically held once or twice a year. Some of the advertised openings are as follows:
