Game Tester Job Listings – How to Get Access

Quit game tester job ad hunting in the papers. They don’t exist. Game development companies have already developed a system in looking for people to test their games. Sometimes, this involves getting in touch with people who have a steady roster of testers, such as those running game testing training grounds and job databases. Of course, there are also quite a number of people who approach these companies, offering game testing services.

If you want access to game tester job listings, online is the way to go. There are game testing sites which you could join for a fee, in exchange for access to game tester job openings. Membership fees usually start at $40. Keep in mind that these companies are providing matching services of sorts. You will upload your resume, same as you would any job database site and you will either need to express interest for a job, or have the companies tap you should they have a job available in your range, in terms of skill and experience as well.

Most people are quick to yell ‘scam!’ before reviewing the terms and conditions for the membership. While it is true that there are fly-by-night operators who will only run away with your money, there are legitimate websites with game tester job listings out there, as well as game tester training grounds which would initiate you to the gaming industry. Look up gaming forums and community sites to find out more. Check out the money-back guarantees

Most importantly, keep a reality check. Membership does not assure you of a job, you would have to get that job yourself by creating (and not fabricating) an awesome resume and getting in touch with the companies that the site is affiliated with.
