The Dharma Initiative Wants You – Comic-con
July 29th, 2008 ryanLatest e-mail received this morning from the folks over at Octagon Global Recruiting.
Follow-up to the prior mailing below.
And of course this was all kicked off with the TV spot that aired during the LOST Season 3 finale.
Can’t say I’ve been very active with the latest ARGs but there has been a degree of involvement, what with the recent convention and excess of browsing time at work. Not going to be leading any trail heads but even my casual interest has been picking up of late and I’ve enjoyed following the latest in the LOST game despite the somewhat disappointing Recruiting Booth last week.
Interviewees were displayed on mounted screens above each chamber with headphones affixed as they answered a series of questions. Pretty cool but not exactly in line with the string of more immersion-friendly recruiting e-mails that were sent out. Would have liked to have seen something more akin to what most career fairs offer in terms of company representation in place of something so flashy but hey, it’s freakin’ comic-con. Flashy is essential, as are khaki-clad blonds sporting Australian accents.
Wasn’t able to snag an interview myself after chatting up the staff, this being 10ish Thursday, but I hadn’t made it a priority and can’t complain as the booth was packed. The wiki has the low down on what transpired both during the interviews and at the LOST panel later. Cool stuff.
If you’d like to read up on the latest goings on check out the lostpedia wiki or Unfiction forums.
