The community has also pooled together to share links to various opportunities available at companies such as:

Ryan Olsen has organized this information and more into a handy Google Doc, as well.

Additionally, Carrie Fowler is offering general help with resumes, etc. and will gladly connect people with opportunities at EA. Simply email her at cfowler@ea.com.
