If you think that reading a lot of books is enough knowledge, studying in many places is enough to have enough skills to enter the Game industry… then just a trip to GIANTY’ Studio will change your thinking.
On Tuesday afternoon, April 9, 2019, Mr. Duong Tich Vy (a former employee at GIANTY) led more than 20 students to visit GIANTY Studio. This is a rare opportunity for students who are passionate about designing and digital art to experience a professional game-making environment and witness firsthand the characters in the world’s famous games.
Students were also introduced to each team, its working process, and its characteristics. This will certainly open up many opportunities and new knowledge that you can hardly learn through books.
At the end of the tour, you gathered in the hall to listen to sharing about people and careers from the management board of the GIANTY Design team. The questions mainly revolve around the job, the recruitment process, and the qualities to become a company employee after graduation.
Interesting question posed by a participant: “For a new graduate (in the design field), between being proficient in software and good at expertise, which side will the company choose?”
Mr. N.T.T (Deputy Manager of Design Department) had a detailed explanation about this:
“Thank you very much for your practical question. If you have to choose between two qualities, the company will choose someone who is good at expertise (ie doesn’t know much about software). Because software is just a tool created to support expertise. And training to become familiar with the software does not take as much time as training to become skilled. So, I also want to give advice to you to try to prepare and practice the basic knowledge well, which will be an important key for you to start your career in any field.”
Hopefully, in the future, young people will have more opportunities to experience the professional environment at GIANTY as well as acquire more important knowledge to help the career they pursue.
See you again on the next journeys.
