Bonfire Studios application questions — all 7, word for word
Bonfire Studios hires through Greenhouse. Beyond name, email and CV, its application form asks 7 questions, 6 of them required. None of them is a required, fixed-choice question about your eligibility to work. A cover letter is optional.
7 roles were open when this was last checked, mostly in design and product. The questions below are the form's own wording, not a paraphrase.
What Bonfire Studios has open
These are the roles the form was read from, as Bonfire Studios titles them, in Hybrid, Irvine, California, United States:
- General Application
- Accountant / Finance (Senior/Lead)
- Lead Gameplay Animator
- Product Manager, Internal Tools & Player Insights
- Systems Engineer (Principal/Lead)
- Gameplay Animator (Senior/Principal)
- Environment Artist (Senior/Principal)
6 of the questions below are ones at most two of the 213 employers measured ask (median: 18), the least standard being “What helps us evaluate fit for this role is seeing work that not only demonstrates strong artistry and craft, but also feels like it could live within the hauntingly beautiful, surreal world of Arkheron. With that in mind, please share a link to a piece you’re especially proud of — one that best reflects your skill and creative voice.”.
