Developer King will recruit 165 employees to create more popular hand tour

"TechWeb Report" April 1 news, according to foreign media reports, mobile game developers King Digital Entertainment Plc. The Monday recruitment advertisement expanded aggressively, with a plan to recruit 165 employees, equivalent to 25% of the current number of employees. King's demand for skilled personnel, including Scrum Master and mobile game developers, has been disappointing after King's listing. The company's IPO on the NYSE in WEDNESDAY was priced at $22.5, but closed at $18.08 in Friday, down nearly 20% from its IPO price. The hand-tour developer, known as Candy Crush Saga, hopes to recruit more talent to develop a series of new popular games. The company's position is distributed around the world. At present King's executives declined to comment on the recruitment news. Riccardo Zacconi, King's chief executive, said in an interview last week that the company needed more time to launch more mobile-oriented games, such as Apple's iOS platform. He pointed out that King ended last year only launched three mobile games, hoping to increase the number in the future. Currently King's mobile phone games are based on Candy Crush game mode. Candy is the most lucrative mobile game ever to be used in the App store by the end of 2012, but the popularity is now declining. In the United States, the crown of its most popular mobile games has recently given way to the Tribal wars (Clash of Clans), a Finnish developer Supercell Oy.
