Does this require relocation to Germany? It's not specified in the job announcement. I would assume it does though ;-)

edit : nevermind : "QA position we currently have available here in the Frankfurt office"

Hey, I am not seriously thinking about working at Crytek but just for my personnal knowledge, QA work consists in the analysis and the experimentation with the game so that you find bug and try to improve overall game experience ? This is the content of most of my small contribution on the forum so maybe I should think about it @_@.

HS/
I am graduated since a month from a french Engineering school and start job interviews :easter:
I might actually go for one close to Germany this Thurday :P

Everyone who's considering to apply, read the stories at http://trenchescomic.com/ first and then reconsider. :P

In all seriousness though, game testing (or QA) could be a dream job if your dream is to test games - that means, if you enjoy tracking down bugs, trying out hard-to-replicate manoeuvres to expose a potential exploit in a level, learning how the game works and then trying to break it (and make the coders angry), this job is for you. :)

If you enjoy playing games, landing a job as a tester can potentially ruin for you the titles you're assigned to test. :P Good luck to all applicants though!

Well,my English would be good enough,I live in Germany,and I am good at analysing...But I am not exactly living next to Frankfurt and I have a minimum of 2 1/2 years of school left to do (Fachabitur+IT,although i will probably do an extra year and Abitur).
