Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
Just going to repeat some things about the dress code thing, people will wear what ever they wear that day, there is certain periods of the year you have to attend interviews almost daily, and you are not gonna specifically prepare or dress up just for that interview, same for most bigger companies in all industries,… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
But this is with regards to the game industry yes? I've had a good amount of experience (1st 2nd hand) with other industries and interviewers always made it a point to dress the most general interview standard dress code, unless they were in uniform, like in food or retail. If I dress better than them am I a good fit for… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
Like Slosh said, what you wear is very likely not going to be a major determining factor in the interview, unless you walk in literally in rags and not having bathed in days. If you come in wearing a suit and tie to a game artist interview, it'll probably be mentioned, and people will think its a bit odd, but no one is… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
So a formally dressed candidate for an interview automatically has less experience? And for which interview, artist, programmer, HR, management? I doubt all of them dress the same way. What is the nature of the industry? It seems totally arbitrary to me unless you mean the more stereotypical game developer dress codes… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
I was responding specifically to your questions about dress code. As for whatever else happened during your interview, I wasn't there so I don't know. -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
Thanks! I've looked through those topics many times. The info with regards to dress codes at the link was more generic which is appropriate. I just never expected to meet a recruiter in shorts and flip flops. I wonder if they dress like that for non art positions like HR and management. -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
I'm not in the games industry at the moment, but I've conducted some interviews myself. In the beginning, I was surprised when applicants overdress. Eventually, I got used to it and understood that sometimes applicants are unable to determine a company's dress code at work. So yeah, just make yourself presentable and wear… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
If you aren't desperate for a job, I'd pass. Too many red flags. If you are desperate for the job, dont say shit, fly below the radar, get in and get out and move forward towards your goals. Personally, dress code and uniforms usually exist for a reason. And for good reasons. Same reason I keep a separate office at home… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
In their words they were impressed with the portfolio hence I was called into the interview. I actually asked the interviewers later about the portfolio and they said it was great. They had no idea I'd been rejected, so not sure what happened internally or who was responsible for the final say. I mean as far as being for a… -
Re: Dressing for Game studio interviews.
I think I will just keep to dressing the same way. I think the suit bit is overkill though for the japanese company it was expected atleast from what I read from other people interviewing there. And the interviewers were also very formally dressed. What about sending feedback for the interview to the company? Like I…
