It's not a loss. Don't even listen to that person. Good for you for having courage to go for it. I'm the type of person who always underestimates myself and thinks I'm not good enough for a lot so it's nice to see so many people going for gold.
I don't think Midnight_Dream meant to be rude. Yes, her post was rather blunt but that doesn't mean everyone needs to call her out on it or whatever. :/Anyway, going a bit more on topic, I like the idea of a thread where we can daydream what "our" version of G5 would be, someone should make one! It sounds fun!! (I'd make it myself, but I don't really have any ideas - I'm boring, I just like waiting and seeing what we get officially And I'd feel bad making a thread and having nothing to contribute myself)
Ai...Al it is just a user name in the end.
Either way wanting 10 years of experience for such a company is by no means too much, in fact I think it is too little.
For such a major company would you hire someone with no experience? No, you wouldn't and you would find that it is an extreme waste of time and effort to weed through those who have none.
Yay you had the courage to apply, but I'm just being honest in saying you and likely dozens of others who applied without experience wasted their time.

This literally denies anyone who started with the current generation or even the Bayformers. All this fresh blood that has been there through what has been an epoch for Hasbro are denied this position because some hiring manager thinks double digits are cool. Length of experience is the most arbitrary filter for talent, especially in a position where ideas and intuition are more important than the tried and true methods.QuoteFor such a major company would you hire someone with no experience?

I'd probably have them taken under the wing of someone with more experience, but I'm not going let a good idea pass me by because it came from the mouth of someone just because they haven't been doing something since the Bush administration.Actually, there you go. They are calling for more experience than someone can possibly have as President of the United States.QuoteYay you had the courage to apply, but I'm just being honest in saying you and likely dozens of others who applied without experience wasted their time.Btw, because I'm on LinkedIn, it took me about ten minutes on an evening where I had nothing better to do.
Ok well. I guess I will say my part and then leave because I don't want to get too heated and hurt some feelings (I always worry I will).I would like to start a thread where anybody who already has or would like to create(d) their own generation, so to speak. We can discuss our characters or versions of existing ones, worldbuilding, that sort of thing.Would anybody like to join me? :0
