The Tester

Is anyone else here watching The Tester (on PSN)? I was totally digging it until they eliminated their newest person.

Just me, I guess. I found the whole thing entertaining. It's probably my only shot at a job, too, which is bad, because I didn't even know I could have applied.

Ehehe,

You only need a high school degree to become a game tester, so if that's what you'd like to do, just go ahead and apply to a few companies. I know people that really feel good about the experience, but it's tough work. You aren't really playing games, more often you're just repeating one small task in a game over and over again to see if it breaks (like opening and closing a door).

But if you do apply, best of luck man! Let us know how your job search goes. Where are you local to?

It's an on-site job, though, isn't it? Living in Nebraska, I doubt that I have anything like that near me.

There aren't any video game companies in Nebraska? I guess that's true. Anyway, the tester is doing their casting for season 2 right now if you're still interested. Good luck if you apply.
