Anyone have any tips on how to best obtain a remote video game quality assurance role? I have 2 years of testing experience, just looking for ways to stand out to potential companies.

I would suggest looking for remote roles on LinkedIn, gameindustry.biz, gamejobs.co, and networking with HR folks from the studios you’re interested in working with. Also if you’re able, try to attend some industry events.

Remote jobs are still a young trend but I suspect we’ll see more studios open up roles with remote flexibility to them.

Hi all, I have an offer from PwC AC ...could anyone please enlighten me with the working culture, wlb, and any other useful inputs..this is for the strategy role

I have been overworked and overwhelmed at my current job for quite a while. This is my first position out of law school, small firm with large caseload, and in my second year of practice. I often think I should look for another opportunity elsewhere but I don't know that any other firms would give me the potential for growth and experience that I am getting here. What are other 2nd year associates doing at other firms? Trying to gauge if I really am getting more opportunities here

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach.

Hi! I see a bowl dedicated to the Entertainment Industry generally speaking, but not specifically for Gaming. And lord knows there’s more than enough to get its own! This bowl is dedicated to the blood-sweat-and-tearers, the crunchiers, the dreamers and all the fishes, small and big, that work in an industry now worth more than music and movies combined! Let’s discuss news, hardships, victories and hopefully we’ll all get to learn from each other and make this industry better from the inside.
