All,
I am in the process of wrapping up my current career in a little less than two years. I am seeking employment in the business and management sector of the game industry, with more of a focus on development. I am looking for anyone within the industry that has time to answer just a few wave top questions.
I have little to no knowledge of the industry, being that I am an outsider. I do have roughly 4 years of managerial experience to include team management and project management.
Just a few questions that I would have are:
- What sort of positions are there in game development with a focus on business and management?
- What is the day to day life like in your respective position?
- What are some education focuses that might help with breaking into the industry with my employment goal? (I am a managerial studies major)
- What is the overall culture of the industry? I understand that each individual company will have its own culture, looking for a broad perspective.
- What are some of the pitfalls the industry faces right now from a business perspective?
If anyone has the time to hold a conversation via email or phone I would greatly appreciate the opportunity.
RS
-Travis
