We first want to make a huge thank you to Mary and all of Zynga for coming out for the presentation on Monday.  We are sorely disappointed in the seriously lacking attendance after all of our advertising well ahead of time.  Despite the lack of attendance, Zynga came prepared with all sorts of goods:  Free pizza, drinks, and an absolute ton of swag! Everyone went home with a box of pizza, 3 t-shirts, and pens!  One lucky audience member also went home with a brand new HP netbook!  Are’nt you sad you did not take the time to come check out this incredible opportunity?!  Don’t worry too much… If you guys show us and Zynga that you are seriously interested in attending their next event, they will come back out very soon this fall!  So please email us of your interest, post in our forums, and sign up for the interviews (info below)!

If you are at all serious about going on to making games as a career, then do not miss the opportunity to interview with Zynga!  You may be thinking “hey I really want to work on huge first person shooter games” or something along those lines;  But what you are overlooking is the fact that Zynga’s games are massively huge and their studios are incredibly fun.  This is not even mentioning the fact that if you eventually want to work on a huge game, you have to have experience on other published titles and need to find your way into the industry somewhere.  So please do not miss this great opportunity to gain experience in interviewing, as well as grab a chance at landing a job or internship at one of the very fastest growing game companies in the world!  Sign up for your interview in the Engineering Career Services office in Hitchcock/Bolz Hall.  Bring along your resume too!
