There is nothing I am more sure of in this weak, unhappy world that job hunting is a practice inflicted on us by the Devil himself, though I am surprised that Death Stranding creator Hideo Kojima agrees with me. But the Kojima Productions founder and, once, Konami's wunderkind didn't exactly lead a charmed existence before landing in the video game industry.
An Automaton translation of an essay Kojima wrote for An-an Web tells us the director doesn't think much of his young adulthood, describing himself as having attended a second-rate university. He'd tell job interviewers that he wrote novels, and they'd laugh in his face.
