Interview With PANDA

Q. If you could describe the company in one sentence? (Octopo is ___.)

A. Octopo is a rival friend.
Because it’s a company that helps me grow by keeping me on my toes, while still being fun and friendly.

Q. What’s your ultimate work playlist?

A. Current affairs radio programs.
On the other hand, something I love but is actually dangerous to work to would be OSTs from The Walt Disney Company / Pixar / Studio Ghibli. While listening, I end up talking with my teammates about the scenes that come to mind, which distracts me from focusing.

Q. What kind of person would fit well at Octopo?

A. Someone who is proactive in their work, has strong ownership over their output, and knows how to get along with others.
Since we avoid a rigid, top-down approval system, I believe it’s important to have your own judgment and take initiative in solving work-related challenges.

A. It’s a place where highly skilled people gather.
When I look at the work created by Octopo members, it’s so impressive it leaves me speechless.

Q. When did you feel you grew the most after joining?

A. When my work sync with the team improved.
Beyond my existing tasks, I started taking on animation work, and being able to ease others’ workload made me realize how much I had grown.

Q. What would you like to say to someone considering applying to Octopo?

A. Octopo is a fascinating company where people work hard and play hard at the same time. If you apply and join us, there will be many enjoyable experiences waiting for you. Surrounded by talented colleagues, you’ll naturally find strong motivation to grow. Don’t hesitate — just apply!!

Q. Who helps create a healthy team atmosphere?

A. Everyone is wonderful, but I think Chic, who always keeps the team atmosphere positive; Rian, who keeps us sharp and focused; Maya, who never lets the laughter stop; and Yoon all contribute greatly to keeping the team healthy and balanced.
