We will be adding to it and filling out more details on paths that you might like to take to get there along with other positions you might not immediately associate with a gameco but I figure that if you know the destination you have in mind, the journey can be much simpler. In general, you need way too much education, the ability to perform under pressure, iterate quickly and work fast while staying at the top of your profession. Link.

A job ad is up on the Interzone Jobs page, so email jobs@iz if you think you’re ideal. A short list of requirements:

  • Passionate about computer games.

  • Excellent Word/Excel/Powerpoint & very ‘net literate.
