My take on Nexon's open positions

Thanks, Corn, for posting the link which resulted in this thread.

APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT ENGINEER (Los Angeles, CA)

...You need people to make sure it starts properly? (Someone tell me what this person does.)
ASSISTANT PRODUCER (Los Angeles, CA)
What's the difference between ^ and V?
ASSOCIATE PRODUCER (Los Angeles, CA)
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ANALYST (Los Angeles, CA)

Nah, not needed. You make enough money.
CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE (Los Angeles, CA)

Just ONE?
DIRECTOR, CUSTOMER SERVICE (Los Angeles, CA)

That explains a lot.
DIRECTOR, MARKETING (Los Angeles, CA)

Nope, not needed either. SCREW THE MARKETING YOU HAVE MONEY
DIRECTOR, PUBLIC RELATIONS (Los Angeles, CA)

Yeah, I think this is what Prose was doing.
LOCALIZATION SPECIALIST (Los Angeles, CA)

...What?

EDIT : Spaz says it's the guy that makes sure we don't get random Korean messages. Evidently, this position opened up before this patch. >__>
MANAGER, ONLINE COMMUNITY (Los Angeles, CA)

How can you survive without one of these?
MARKETING COORDINATOR (Los Angeles, CA)

YOU DON'T NEED ANY MORE FREAKING MONEY
NETWORK ENGINEER (Los Angeles, CA)

I don't know what this does o_O
PRODUCER (Los Angeles, CA)

This isn't a movie... :f6:
PROGRAM MANAGER, IN-GAME ADVERTISING (Los Angeles, CA)

Why do you need to advertise yourself IN GAME? WE'RE ALREADY THERE!
QUALITY ASSURANCE TESTER (Los Angeles, CA)

Okay, NOW we know why patches take a few days.
SR. SYSTEM ENGINEER (Los Angeles, CA)

What does this person do?
SR. WEB DEVELOPER (Los Angeles, CA)

Nexon needs more than one.
WEB DEVELOPER (Los Angeles, CA)

Get one that DOESN'T make everything for little kids that aren't even supposed to be playing.

No problem .

Maybe that's why Nexon sucks, people are doing other people's jobs, ha ha.

LOCALIZATION SPECIALIST (Los Angeles, CA)

...What?

aka person who changes strings and such so we don't get "you're out of bullets" messages in Korean.

Lol @ all the money jobs.

I really wonder if they have a statistician or something to make sure the skills balance each other out, for the most part. So we don't have the fastest attacks doing the most damage per hit.

the network engineer is the one who makes sure that all the servers, firewalls, routers, switches, etc are all operating normally and they correct for errors when they arent. they are also the ones responsible for upgrading and updating these items. =)

Correct, but I don't see how they 'update' anything. Speaking as a 2nd year CISCO student, I honestly don't see how they 'update' anything. They just make sure that updated things gets routed to the internet, yes. But I don't see how they can update anything, really.

MANAGER, ONLINE COMMUNITY (Los Angeles, CA)

How can you survive without one of these?

[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Open positions / Hiring =! Complete lack. Just because they are hiring doesn't mean that they have none at all.

Edit: You know, you can click on them to see what their job descriptions are. [/COLOR]

I think those jobs are for combat arms and sugar rush

All of these positions will be filled with Joe the Plumber.

It's amazing how much plumbers need to know these days.

They do update a lot, actually (maybe not game content, but yeah). I'm a qualified netowrk technician, and maintaining large, high traffic servers can be a pain in the hole. They are so temperamental >.< I don't envy the guy who has to look after ALL of them lol. (although he probably has subordinates to do that for him, while he hugs his fancy title while trying not to spill coffee on his 400 dollar tie )


LOL @ NEXON HAVING 304982034 CUSTOMER SERVICE PEOPLE! They have the worst customer service of any company ever, why do they need so many? ;(

Yeah, but isn't there usually only one manager...?
