ZCorp is Hiring! - Level 1 is the first level of the ZCorp is Hiring! event in Penny's Pursuit. This level has Bonus Objectives that the player can optionally complete, but no difficulty swaps.
Difficulty[]
This level is extremely hard, even in Mild difficulty. As the player is only supplied with one attacking plant: Laser Bean, but what makes it hard is that this level has high-health zombies such as Robo-Cone Zombies and Disco-tron 3000s, and they are even more challenging in Spicy or Extra Hot. Bug Bot Imps are also a threat because they can spawn in the middle of the lawn and trample over the flowers, ruining the bonus objectives. However, the player is supplied with E.M.Peach and an imitated version of it so that the player can stall these zombies.
