这是一则很好的段子，zynga在和facebook达成谅解成为全球游戏界关注的焦点，与此同时DigiCha网站捕获了zynga在Craigslist发布招聘的消息，虽然只是很短暂的时间，zynga广告马上下线了。

这足够成为用户们最劲爆的谈资，zynga在北京成立办公室还靠谱吗？这三个职位分别是首席技术官、人力资源主管和软件开发工程师，观察者认为前两个是管理岗位，因此zynga想要招募的就不仅仅只是一名软件工程师那么简单。

DigiCha网站Bill Bishop期待周四就能看到最新的进展。在线游戏是中国目前相当热门的一个领域，海外社交游戏巨头们也很早就关注到了这一点，包括zynga最大的竞争对手playfish已经在北京设立办公室了。

When it comes to social games and virtual goods, Silicon Valley is relatively new to an industry that Asia has been building since the early 2000s. Zynga, apparently, wants some of that Chinese talent. DigiCha has a great catch about three job listing that were put on Beijing Craigslist– and then promptly pulled down. The three jobs were Chief Technology Officer, Human Resources Manager and Software Engineer. Given that two of those are management, I’m guessing they’re not hiring just one software engineer. DigiCha’s Bill Bishop expects the announcement to be made Thursday.

Online gaming has been hot in China, and the Western tech scene is taking notice. One of Zynga’s biggest competitors, Playfish, already has an office there. One source says its staff is likely to be a big poaching target.

This is different from the Yahoo, eBay, Google round of Valley startups expanding into China, because this time there are already a host of strong Chinese publicly-traded competitors waiting whether they are scrappy upstarts like Giant or giants like Tencent and Shanda. And this time a lot of these companies are going after the talent in China, as much as they are going after the huge Chinese market. Chastened by how badly the dot com bubble crop did, it’ll be interesting to see if the Web 2.0 generation can do any better.

All this means the market for gaming talent in China is getting tighter amid all the interest, and Chinese startups can’t be happy about that. But when it comes to management positions at least there’s one big multinational anyone can poach from: Google. I’ve heard from more than a few sources that Google’s Beijing staff was none-to-happy about the search company leaving them out of the loop earlier this year when it threatened its pull-out of the market.
