Thank you so much for providing job-related information for free like this. The audio volume was louder than the previous 2 lectures, which made it better for taking the course. I'm curious if you accept inquiries regarding portfolio feedback!

    Industry and Programmer Role Q&A


The most accurate information 📖 for becoming a game programmer

An industry professional will tell you directly. It’s free for everyone. 💵🙅‍♂

I remember when I first prepared to get a job at a game company. I didn’t know anyone who had majored in a game-related field or worked in the game industry. I had to cross the threshold of employment by going through trial and error myself with incomplete information I found on the internet.

However, you don't have to go through that. You can get the most accurate information on becoming a game programmer from a current game programmer—including the game programmer role, the types of projects companies work on, strategies for preparing for each stage of the hiring process, negotiating employment terms, and finally, basic Q&A about the industry and the role. Based on my firsthand experience with job hunting and changing jobs over approximately 10 years, I will share information that will be truly helpful to you.

This course was created for those seriously considering entering the game industry, aspiring job seekers working hard every day to become game programmers, and current professionals preparing to change jobs late into the night for a better career. As your industry senior or colleague, I hope to help you find a job or advance your career.
