Krafton Plans Largest Entry-Level Recruitment, Seeking at Least 100 AI Hires
Krafton plans to hire at least 100 AI-focused entry-level employees in its largest new-graduate recruitment round to date. The company is framing the intake around its “AI native” strategy.
A larger intake for AI talent
The announced scale makes AI recruitment a central part of this hiring round. The reports do not specify the roles, application timetable or how the new employees will be deployed, so the practical reach of the hiring push remains to be seen.
