Gamasutra is announcing a new monthly competition for job-seekers, with a Nintendo DSi up for grabs to a randomly-chosen game creator who uploads their resume/CV into the site's market-leading resume database.
The leading site on the art and business of games already has
hundreds of advertised jobs in programming, art, design, production and more, from top industry companies.
Searching a database of video game job candidates -- already actively used on Gamasutra by companies like Microsoft, Activision, Sony, Ubisoft, Gazillion, Blizzard, and THQ -- is becoming an equally good way of finding new employees at top studios.
Now, any Gamasutra jobseeker who logs on to
the Job Seeker part of Gamasutra's jobs section and fills in or updates a resume in the 'My Resume Manager' section will be eligible for a random drawing to be held monthly.
One randomly picked developer who has updated or uploaded their resume in either 'public to searchers' or 'anonymous' formats in the last competition period will win a new Nintendo DSi handheld, thanks to Gamasutra.
By registering for the resume upload service, game creators should significantly increase their chances of being called on by some of the game industry's leading companies.
[COMPETITION NOTES: One entry per person. Prize drawings start on May 31st and occur at the end of each calendar month thereafter. All those who uploaded or updated during that month entry period are eligible for a prize. Winner will be contacted privately via email. Monthly prize is one U.S.-purchased Nintendo DSi which will be sent to winner's location, whether inside or outside North America.]
