KRAFTON, Inc. is selecting more than 100 entry-level talents equipped with AI capabilities through its 2027 KRAFTON Hiring-Linked Internship. According to the company, this recruitment drive is the largest open entry-level recruitment in KRAFTON's history.
Applications will be accepted on the KRAFTON recruitment website from October 13 to October 23. Graduates and prospective graduates of domestic and international universities can apply, with recruitment open across six job families: AI Research, Tech, Corporate Support, Business, Game Development (Programming), and Game Development (Planning).
The recruitment process will proceed in order of document screening, an aptitude test, an AI competency assessment, and interviews. After conducting tests and interviews from November to December, the final successful candidates will be announced in January 2027. Selected candidates will join the company in February 2027 and work in field positions for five months. Decisions on full-time conversion will be made in July of the same year based on evaluation results.
Evaluations will assess AI application capabilities, general critical thinking, and global competency, focusing on candidates' potential to learn quickly and solve problems using AI. For the AI competency assessment, KRAFTON will utilize Cofa-Probe, its proprietary AI-Native recruitment and assessment solution.
The objective of this recruitment is to secure and nurture AI-native entry-level talent company-wide to drive new AI-based business initiatives together. KRAFTON is expanding its business scope by pursuing new AI-based businesses grounded in the technology and expertise accumulated during game production and live operations.
After declaring its transition into an 'AI First' company in the second half of 2025, KRAFTON has been examining the changes AI brings to practical work environments. The company determined that the greatest synergy is generated when the ability of talent who naturally utilize AI is combined with the expertise of existing organizations. Starting with this recruitment, KRAFTON plans to institutionalize annual open recruitment for AI-native entry-level talent and strengthen its AI business alongside talent equipped with AI application capabilities.
So-young Han, Head of HR at KRAFTON, stated, “As KRAFTON expands new AI-based businesses, the need for talent to lead them together has also grown, and accordingly, we have expanded job and growth opportunities for young people.” She added, “Starting with this open recruitment, we will continue our bold challenge of creating new business opportunities by combining the capabilities of AI-native juniors with the expertise of existing organizations.”
KRAFTON was selected in September as one of the 2026 Korea's Top Job Creation Companies organized by the Ministry of Employment and Labor, marking its fifth overall selection. The company plans to continue the growth of its new AI businesses by expanding opportunities to secure and nurture talent needed for AI-based business expansion.
