Video Game Tester Jobs
64Video Game Testing Jobs
Before going out and looking around for game testing jobs there are a few things you might want to know first. Work as a video game tester is not as easy or as fun as it may sound. However, that is not to say that it can't fun a fun or rewarding career. Video game testing is a great way to break into the video game industry. A so-called "foot in the door" can be a great stepping stop to another video game career. Many game designers and programmers started as game testers. It is still important to go to college for these jobs. You can still work as a video game tester while going to college at the same time.
One of the first things you can do is participate in public beta tests for popular video games. This will allow you to become familiar with what a video game tester actually may do everyday. The great thing about beta testing games is that it can be done from home in your spare time. As a bonus, often you will be able to get the final version of the game for free or at a reduced price. You may also be able to work at home for some game testing jobs but it's not extremely common for this to happen, certainly not for a full time career. It is possible to find some part-time work at home testing games.

Hello all, I have no experience as a video game tester but do enjoy playing video games. I have been disabled for the past two years and desperately need something that I can do from my recliner at home. If anyone knows how to obtain one of these jobs I would be very greatful. I am willing to go to school and further my career. The last time I worked with programming at any level was ten years ago when I took classes in Pascal and VB. Please help if you can. Sincerely Jen.

Thank you in advance

You can participate in testing before 16 but not paid, unless it was under the table. and also it doesnt look like anyone actually is looking at companies for a job, instead you posted a message here like someone is going to GIVE it to you for free.so if you arent 16+, sucks for you, if you arent 18+, good luck, if you dont have any previous testing on your resume, good luck. Thats for a job that you get PAID, if you need something to put on your resume then get ready to do some free( read: you will not be paid) testing, and you are going to have to spend alotof time looking if you are 17- and your more likely to find Free testing jobs as a Temp( you arent an employe, just a temporary worker that has no reason to stay after the job is done). Also if you are here because a stupid commercial that makes it look like youre playing a gamein a comfy chair/chouch on a big screen eating pizza then think again, try a computer chair( basic), a 10- 19 inch screen, and the pizza remains, if you work in house. If you want a litle more info then call 818-451-9905, no I wont try to sell you any thing and please only call on the weekend. Also use my screen name so i know you arent some crazy guy calling for who knows what. :P
I am willing to work for free,just to get some experience in the domain,if you could please give me some info on where to go to get this kind of job.my mail is soni_mk15@yahoo.com

Here's the deal I know that all the adolescent kids on this page are pretty much writing "pick me because I like video games and I am better than all my friends" but here's the thing I am better than all my friends and even my computing teacher. The longest it has ever taken me to complete any game was WoW but that's because two expansions came out on it and I only had enough money to buy 1 expansion at a time.furthermore because I live in a boring part of 21st century suburbia I have next to nothing else to do with my time so I can get up to 12 hours played time a day in.I do realise this is not a job application but If any1 were to read this and wish to cntct me about possible jobs my e mail is rory_Morgan@hotmail.co.uk

You should be instead looking for jobs that involve reviewing games. In this field you will most likely sit around and play games and write essays on the game. Check google or some other search engine to find a website or magazine that writes reviews and apply. You will need to know alot about grammar, although I haven't met an employer who pays that much attention to it. If you have any questions email me at tommyjoe2013@gmail.com.
hi ive aplyed for game testing and they said i have the qualifications for it but im fifteen and they said i have to be seventeen wat do you recommend
