Hire Education

“It’s actually an easy application process,” says Azacore. “You just need to create a project which shows off your desire to join the team and your unique building style. Being original is very important.”

If you’re trying to become apart of a team, it’s also handy if you showcase some sort of speciality, the one thing you do the best. Azacore’s specialty is his realistic creations. “If you check my Twitter or Planet Minecraft profiles, that’s what I’m best at. I also like to do Sci-Fi and futuristic builds too, but I’m mostly known for my realistic work.”

Realistic work taken right from the source: his own backyard. “These buildings were inspired by some of the Spanish districts in my hometown,” says Azacore. “But I also knew that if I just built from life, it wasn’t going to be enough. I had to add something from my imagination too.”

And evidently, it worked, as he got the job!

“It felt really good,” says Azacore. “Getting positive feedback from a professional team like them would make anyone feel special and worthy.”

But even if you don’t, don’t fret. Not everybody gets good news all the time. Not even Azacore himself.

“The first couple of teams I applied to rejected me,” he says. “If some doors close for you, you should know that bigger ones will open but you have to find them yourself. That’s how I got to Octovon. Rejection hurts, but use it to improve yourself and your work. That’s the best advice I and give.”

Sound advice, and not just for aspiring builders but really anyone looking for a new job. Just remember to bring plasters for those uncomfortable shoes.

Azacore starts work with his new team soon, so keep an eye out for him on Twitter to see what he builds next.
