Blizzard Entertainment games don’t just begin with game ideas, or end once those games are released. A lot more goes into the creation of a Blizzard product than the work of developers—and we support our games for years after they’re in the hands of gamers world-wide. As part the Operations team, the Talent Acquisition team is staffed with the most talented and creative people, all dedicated to fostering the best work experience possible for our employees. Our team is on a mission to question the conventional, challenge the traditional, and ultimately rewrite the playbook on how we bring the best talent in the world home to Blizzard Entertainment. With over 4000 employees in nine countries supporting six active franchises across multiple channels serving tens of millions of dedicated players, we are a complex business with equally complex hiring needs.
Our team is currently seeking a talented Art Recruiter to drive initiatives and priorities to completion. In this role, you will partner closely with your leads and managers and work quickly to develop a comprehensive understanding of team talent goals for our artistic teams. You’ll source and evaluate candidates, facilitate interviews and manage the candidate selection process to ensure a superior candidate experience. Successfully recruiting within this passionate and creative environment takes a unique blend of listening and responsiveness, an appreciation for the artistic temperament and for our unique culture in general. If this sounds like something you would excel at and enjoy, please continue reading.
