Professional video game testing isn't really that tough. In fact, you could even go as far as to say that it's an easy job that does NOT require too much effort. All you have to do is put the game in, play through it, write down the game's problems, then collect a paycheck after you're all done. Seriously, does that sound like a difficult job to you?
You Need NOT Apply For This Simple Job If...
- You don't have at least 5 years gaming experience. In all seriousness, you don't have to be a gaming guru who has mastered every video game out there. However, you do need to have basic knowledge of the gaming industry and how game development works. More experience and knowledge you have, the better off you'll be.
- You aren't at least 18 years old. Some companies have been known to hire (with limitations) gamers who are 16 years old. Then again, this is usually a rare occurrence in the world of professional video game testing.
- You don't have a next-gen system and/or a high-end PC. Having both is better, but one or the other will do. If you're not current with gaming technology, you don't stand a chance.
- You don't have a video game testing resume. No resume, no consideration of any kind, period. Being a game tester means having to do actual work which MUST be taken seriously. This isn't a hobby you do on the weekends.
- You have poor grammar skills. Video game testers fill out a great many reports & forms that are used by game programmers to repair & improve video games. If the reports aren't well detailed and easily understood, the programmers can't do their job. If a programmer is unable to do his job, it means the tester has failed to do his.
If the 5 things listed above aren't a problem for you, then you are indeed a candidate for professional video game testing. All that's left for you to do is to start searching for game tester jobs in your area -- and if you no where to look, that won't take you more than a week or two!
