Video Game Business
Biz & Misc.
If you love games but are looking for a more traditional business career, you can have it both ways! Game developers and publishers always need talented administrators, “money people,” and support staff.
Like any business, a game company requires supporting staff to keep it going. If you love games and are interested in a "traditional" career, consider one of these roles. Administrators and managers keep the office running smoothly. Marketing and Public Relations staff make sure the word gets out -- the right word, that is (no leaks!). System Administrators underpin the crucial hardware and software that the teams use every day. For developers that also publish, Sales representatives get the product onto the shelves. And Accountants and Business people make sure the books add up and paychecks are cut -- a crucial role if there ever was one. One support job particularly applicable to game lovers is the web site or community manager, who feeds the hungry fans and provides a forum for the game's players.
