Beta Gaming Testers - Video Game Tester at Home

By Kevin Bryant

The video game industry has exploded into a multi-billion dollar industry in a very short amount of time. Until now, the industry is showing no signs of slowing down, and the demand for video games is continually increasing. In fact, this demand has become so huge that video game producers are having a difficult time keeping up and hiring enough employees to meet the demand. Video game companies are always looking for new video game testers who will review their games before they are released out in the market.

There are three different types of video game testing jobs ? the corporate video game tester, the freelancer video game tester, and the self-employed video game tester. But no matter what type of video game tester job you have, you may still end up into once very simple category ? video game tester at home.

The corporate video game tester is someone who works for companies such as EA, Activision Blizzard, Nintendo, Sony, and the like. Working for such companies would mean that you have to work full time, and is a great way to build connections for future gaming careers or get into a great gaming environment.

The freelancer video game tester, on the other hand, is someone who works on projects or single assignments rather than working on a salary. As a freelancer, you would have to work only when you are needed or on particular assignments only instead of having a full-time day job.

Finally, the self-employed video game tester is someone who makes a blog or a website, and who starts reviewing games and sends samples to different video game companies. It is difficult to actually pull in money if you are self-employed because it isn?t guaranteed. You have to work doubly hard to actively campaign for the job, and you have to be extra patient in waiting for companies to send you free new releases to review. - 30432
