I want to work for Bungie but I'm going to a Institute of Technology in Canada
I've Been playing Destiny ever since Destiny 1 back in 2015 It was a game that took my heart loving it for all my existence, It's now 2023 and I'm now graduating High School and moving on to Post-Secondary and I've been wanting to [b]work for Bungie as a Gameplay Designer[/b] for the longest time, dreaming about it ever since freshman year of high school.
I live in [b][u]Canada[/u][/b] so I'm going to BCIT ([b][u]British Columbia Institute of Technology[/u][/b]) for 2 years to get my [b][u]Diploma in Computer Systems[/u][/b] and do Back for 2 more years to get my [b][u]Bachelor's of Technology[/u][/b] in Computer Systems.
I was just going through the careers on Bungie's page and noticed in all the [b][u]ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS[/u][/b] it says (A recent graduate from a U.S. college, university) I'm worried about the U.S Part, does that mean U.S College/Universities ONLY?
Am I still able to work for Bungie even if [b][u]I went to a Post Secondary In Canada[/u][/b] even if it is a (related program) such as ([b][u]Animation, Development, Designer, ETC[/u][/b])?

Those requirements only refer to EIC (early in career) positions. I imagine that whomever would potentially interview you would look more at your experience instead of the school you graduated from. I will also offer that, while Bungie is a great company to work at, it’s not the only game company around, so even if we might have some requirements for positions that doesn’t mean that other game companies will. Plus, working elsewhere can get you experience, which means that a future application at Bungie could yield better results. Just something to think about ;-)

Bungie prefers to look into the talent you provide. They really don't mind your educational background, but they do mind how well you understand the topic your applying for. E.g. Any level designers should show on their portfolio a demonstration of the choices they made and the decision they decided when crafting levels for a specific game.

The bigger issue will be trying to get credentialed to work here in the US if you’re a Canadian citizen. If you have the equivalent training from outside the US they’ll be interested.
