    🟣World of Warcraft is one of my favorite video games even though I haven't played it in years. I loved it so much that I wanted to work at Blizzard and in this video, I share my application cover letter 😬

    I love it! Your cover letter is hilarious. I think everyone remembers their first one 😂😂. Also, those old Blizzard days were the best! Go APHIO!

    I remember the period of time after college graduation. At the time I was living in Florida and there were no video game game company’s around that I wanted to work at (save EA’s sports division).
    I would have loved to work at one right out of college though!

      After I applied at Blizzard, I remember applying to Capcom and Konami too, anyone who had a SoCal headquarters 😆

    I just found your channel and i love it! i just wanted to give a very deep thank you for having CC's on your videos. i really need them and a majority of channels dont do this so it really puts a barrier on what i can watch. again, thank you!

      You are so welcome and I promise, I will have captions on every single video! I can’t do it for livestreams since they tend to be longer but I’ll always add them to my videos!

    I had a similar feel but a few years later. Just as you were on your way out of the game I came in during wrath. I loved it so much, became friends with my guild, so much so that we are still in communication today and play other games together and have visited irl.
    I fantasized about applying for blizzard. Specifically I wanted to work blizzcon events haha. But I never worked up the courage to even make a cringey cover letter.
    I have a question, since you played a lot of burning crusade, did you feel any pull to go and play burning crusade classic when it was released? They are getting ready to release wrath classic and I am starting to consider resubbing for the first time in years just to play wrath again haha.

      I love the stories where people become real life friends with other people they met in game. That's so awesome! I just checked my email and it looks like I played for a bit during Cataclysm too but after that, i stopped keeping up with it. Didn't even know what the new expansions were or anything. I didn't realize there was a Burning Crusade Classic, sounds fun ha. Honestly, if you're thinking about it, do it :P That's what I say lol. Even if you play a few months, it'd be worth it to re-live the moments you know?

    I'm kinda glad that you didn't work for Blizzard because the way they treat their employees and especially female employees is literally shit.

    Oh, you missed out! Working for Blizzard is great! You get free oatmeal packets in the cafeteria, a comfortable desk to nap under after your 18 hour shift, and all the NDA's and union-busting paperwork you can sign!
    Just don't drink anything they offer you.

    "Not drinking" yeah I can see why they didn't hire you at that time.
