Importantly, this report asked students which company they&#8217;d like to work for\u00a0<em>before actually job-hunting<\/em>; they&#8217;ll no doubt come crashing down a peg or two when they realise how few opportunities\u00a0come about with the gaming giant.<\/p>\n<p>As for the rest of the list? Well, Nintendo was narrowly beaten by Amazon Japan at number five, Google came in at number four, &#8216;Government Official&#8217; was third, Apple Japan came in second, and &#8216;Local Government Employee&#8217; was number one. Taking away those highly sought after governmental positions, however, only Apple, Google, and Amazon were found to be more popular &#8211; not bad going considering the size and scale of those companies.<\/p>\n<p>Sony also came in at ninth, although &#8211; with the company having multiple business ventures in the worlds of electronics, music, film, and more &#8211; it&#8217;s hard to pinpoint exactly how much of this interest comes from the video game side of the business.<\/p>\n<p><em>Do you think working at Nintendo would be a dream job?
