Background: After the seed funding arrived, the studio began expanding its team for the products ahead; the five openings turned abstract growth into concrete choices. A-Zhen’s engineering group needed the right people, while the bull market gave candidates plenty of other hot sectors to pursue.

Today: The studio received two hundred résumés on the first day of hiring. Applications arrived quickly, showing that talent, too, was chasing popular directions in the bull market. The team needed to distinguish from that volume the people willing to commit to game development.

Impact and next: Hiring moved from posting roles to reviewing candidates, but a pile of résumés did not mean the key positions were filled. A-Zhen planned to clarify with the team which problems the engineering roles most needed to solve, then assess candidates one by one. How many suitable people they could find remained unknown.
