EA wants Radical employees

Posted on Friday, 12 December 2003 by Speed, source: Fragland
In a funny sidenote, the Vancouver Sun is reporting that EA has put up a billboard right across the street of Radical Entertainment's offices with the words "Now Hiring" in ASCII written on it
A billboard on Terminal Avenue near Main Street says "now hiring," followed by EA Canada's logo.

What has raised eyebrows at Radical is the fact that the message is in ASCII code -- a computer language in which numbers are used to represent letters -- and that the billboard is only about 100 metres from the company's head office.

Because of its location and its cryptic message, it's clearly aimed at wooing away Radical's software engineers and programmers, Radical chief executive Ian Wilkinson said Tuesday.
Didn't realise EA had such a big sense of humor :)
