Again, here’s what to do if you want to find out about game testing and other jobs and opportunities in the industry:

If you haven’t already, grab my free guide for potential video game testers here on the site. This will show you how to approach companies about positions. Then you have a couple of options:

a. Research the various gaming companies online and contact them as I describe in your free guide.

b. If you have the money to invest and want to save a lot of time, you can purchase access to the game tester job database I recommend and review here, or other available resources.

I sometimes get emails and comments from some people complaining that because there is a small charge for access to this database, it must be some sort of “scam”.

I just don’t get it – these people are very strange to me. Seems they want a job where they can make money doing what they love, yet they are NOT willing to do the research to uncover these positions themselves.

Then, on top of that, they have the nerve to claim that this valuable information should be researched, uncovered and given away to them for free – go figure!

These people who are too lazy to make any effort themselves and even expect others to do research for them for free are certainly NOT the kind of motivated individuals desired by any company – let alone the video game industry!

Again, if you don’t want to pay, or don’t have the money to pay to access the updated job database I recommend, that’s not a problem.

In that case, you can just spend the time doing the research for available positions yourself. Use my FREE GUIDE to learn how to approach these companies and find out what opportunities are available.

Totally straightforward.

If you don’t have the time or don’t know where to look to find continually updated game tester positions, then you can choose to hand over some cash to the people who have already made the effort and done the work for you.

Easy as that.

Note: I’ve mentioned this before, but if you are under 18 years old, you probably aren’t eligible for most game testing positions, but I have some other free options for the under 18 crowd here.

You can also read the other articles on this site that will help you prepare for your post high-school education if you are interested in breaking into the industry.

Hope this helps!

Sincerely,

Hitoshi Jones

I’m having problems. I signed up for you free guide, but something’s wrong with my computer and I can’t properly open up your guide. Is there any other way to read it?

Hitoshi… I hope this works.
