Has anyone here tried to apply for a job with Bungie?
As of right now they have about 40+ openings ranging from Art and design to IT operating and Marketing... and I was wondering if anyone from here actually went forth and applied for a position?
[i]I thought I would give it at least my best shot even though I don't have a degree in anything I never had any experience in developing a video game... just maybe... just maybe they will take me on as an apprentice!? Kind of like they did with Darth Skywalker in the first Star Wars... clearly he was not certified in becoming a Jedi but he went to school to become one anyways.[/i]

Maybe I'll give it a try in ten years.

If they are hiring 17 year old male strippers, I'm their guy.
-
If they're hiring security, I'd give that a go. >_> Jerome, take me under your wing!

Most of the people on this site are about 15, so chances are few are qualified to apply.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] lime013 I remember reading somewhere that you don't always need degrees; personal projects can help get the job. I'm pretty sure that there are a few home-grown guys at Bungie.[/quote] Yes. This is very true. They're more worried about what you can do than what college you went to. Going in with a flashdrive that has the best of your animations or concept art will almost always work out more so than a guy going in a degree from a good college.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ARBITOR 5 Nope, unless they want someone to work from the UK which I doubt. Anywho good luck ;)[/quote]This. I thought about working towards a job there once upon a time, but I heard that they only take people from the UK (or any other country for that matter) if they are exceptionally talented individuals. So I have refocused on getting into med school.

I think you will have to be well qualified to work at a place like this so if its what you want put in some real effort. Game developing is no easy task. It is something that is not by chance to land a job like this, you have to work for it. I would'nt want bungie to be filled with sagging pants fools that just applied.

I don't have the qualifications.... yet Even so, from what I hear destiny is, I don't want to work for them. MMO's are never a fun game to build or design.
