I& #39;ve just finished my biggest job hunting push ever. Despite COVID, the games industry is still hiring producers with 4-6+ years experience. I can& #39;t say much about my new role as an internal producer helping build a new team up from scratch. So I want to talk about job hunting...
Previously, I& #39;ve never had the luxury to decline any job I& #39;ve been offered. I& #39;ve always had to take whatever was given, even if it wasn& #39;t going to help me go in a direction I wanted my career to go. This time I had to think about what I actually wanted and where I wanted to go.
It& #39;s been strangely liberating and frustrating. Hopefully others are interested in my experiences. I& #39;m going to share some thoughts for both candidates and interviewers! Given this is my first big job hunting push please take what I& #39;m saying with a grain of salt, I& #39;m no expert.
I& #39;m going to group advice into advice for candidates and advice I& #39;d love to give to companies/interviewers. So I& #39;m going to do a few tweet threads and bring them all back to this thread when I& #39;m done.
