Advantages of being a video game tester

For the average game, whether your rig is PC or Xbox, being a video game tester seems like a dream job. You can do what you enjoy all day and yes, you get paid for it! People may think that this job is a myth and nobody becomes one. The reality is that companies that sell video games need an “expert” opinion. They are not looking for people out of college to tell them if the game is good, they want people whose lives revolve around video games and who can also provide them with good information.

So what are some of the advantages of this job?

Get a sneak peek: How would it feel to play the next best game before it hits the shelves? Knowing all about it before your friends? In my opinion, it would be great.

Be the best at the game: Companies that test their video games usually start at least six months before launch to fix things that testers may think are better or fix glitches. Most people get very competitive when it comes to online gaming and a six month head start can really give you a boost. People will be wondering who the hell this amazing gamer is on the first day the game is released.

· Meet other players: How would you feel if you met people who share the same interests as you? Sure, there are millions of people who play online, but getting your coworkers involved can make work time fun and a lot of social interaction will take place making the day even better.

Do what you love: This is the most obvious. Most people are not very enthusiastic about their work. They worked very hard at school and came home absolutely exhausted. You’re doing what you already did and loved all day. He takes pride in his work and also showed great appreciation for his expertise.

In conclusion, this is the dream job of many people. Openings are limited, but if you enter, enjoy the good life! To get a job, some education is required. I recommend looking into an IT school so you at least have something on paper. Look for online jobs and job classifieds. If you join a large company, you are ready for life. Not only does he have the career of his dreams, but it also pays well. You would be very surprised.
