Character Artist at Blizzard, Level Designer at CD Projekt RED, Narrative Designer at Naughty Dog - everyone of us has their dream job. But how do we actually get it? Skill, passion and dedication are a good start, but this is not enough. It's also about asking the right questions, meeting the right people and grasping an opportunity by the forelock when it's at hand. This talk teaches you how to appear on recruiter's radars and how to become a top candidate. Attending game events and conferences, on- and off-line networking and portfolio building are the key topics.
