Nexon announced on the 26th that it has completed the 'Maple University Student Game Career Camp Metoring 3rd' held at Nexon headquarters in Pangyo, Gyeonggi-do and HL Human Resources Development Institute in Yongin from the 22nd to the 25th.
Marking its third anniversary, 'Metoring' is a camp-type education camp that provides job experience and career coaching to college (graduate) students interested in the game industry and 'Maplestory'IP. Nexon said that current workers in each job group, including game planning, programming, business, and art, supported students' career exploration through career mentoring and provided job experience through practical project tasks, which received great response from participants in the first and second periods.
Nexon selected a total of 56 third-term participants through pre-recruitment in mid-July, and conducted various programs such as game job training and career coaching for three nights and four days, team-specific task competitions, and excellent team awards. All participants were given a certificate of completion along with Maple Welcome Goods, and special badges and goods were delivered to students who were selected as the best team (Grand Prize, Best Prize, Excellence Award, Team MVP) in the team's task competition.
Kim Ga-on (23) of the team 'Hennel-Seat', who received the grand prize, expressed his feelings, saying, `We were able to specify our career path through mentoring of current people and one-on-one feedback, and our experience in collaborating with members of various occupations helped us greatly in preparing for our career.'
Nexon operates 'Metoring' on a regular basis during the vacation season of college students every year to foster young talent and prospective creators in the game industry and continues to interact with students interested in the game industry. In addition, various efforts are being made, such as conducting industry-academic cooperation projects with various domestic universities using the creative platform 'Maple Story World'.
