I applied online. The process took 3+ months. I interviewed at THQ Nordic (Agoura Hills, CA) in Dec 2012
Interview
I had a brief interview with HR (who was really nice) and then an on-site interview with the Creative Management team. Following that interview, I was given 'homework' to play and write an executive summary on the development process that the game went through. The homework was essentially proof that I had the skills for the job, and it took me a week to complete.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The strangest/most fun question was to create a level with 3 random items. I believe the three items were a hat, a rope, and a crab claw.
