After completing work on their book, Game Industry Career Guide (part of the Game Development Essentials series, published by Cengage Delmar Learning), Jeannie Novak and Michael E. Moore both took some time to expand on the book’s final chapter, “Future: Employment & Growth in the Game Industry.” What follows is their short list of the top most exciting changes we see taking place in the industry in the near future . . . The V-Team
Let’s start with the economy. Yes – we’ve seen a rash of layoffs and firings during the last few years. Even game industry veterans found themselves out of work. But simultaneous to the consolidation of larger game companies, a slew of small consultancies and game development studios have cropped up – some run by those very veterans, and some by relative newcomers with the entrepreneurial spirit. Some of these studios are saving a great deal on overhead by hiring employees from around the country (and even the world) to participate on what is being known as “virtual teams.”

One Minute Job Search Insights is a series of short, easy-to-read articles designed to give job searchers little nuggets of information that can be read and digested in about one minute.
In interviews many job seekers spend a lot of time preparing for all the questions they are going to get. They think about the usual questions like “Where do you see yourself in 5 years?” and “Tell me about a difficult situation you had to handle in your last job.”
They may prepare quick-witted answers to common questions such as “What do you look for in a boss?” and “What do you call your style of management?” The problem comes when that part of the interview is over and the person on the other side of the desk inquires “Do you have any questions for me?”
