🤯 So this happened? I WAS NOT ready to see my name along those brilliant people! I've been shortlisted for Diversity Star at the Develop:Brighton Star Awards! And I don't even know where to start??? ➡️ The industry has broken my heart more times than I can count in the past 6 months (year really), and I would be lying if I said this hasn't affected my mental health. Recruiters & Talent Acquisition are in the front line when it comes to layoffs and hiring. We hear people's stories, we connect, and then we have to inform them of decisions we have no power over. It hasn't been a fun job lately. ⚓ What has been giving me strength is all the little things I do to make this industry a tiny bit less gatekept to groups that have been HISTORICALLY under recognised. I live by Desmond Tutu quotes, (especially considering the state of the world atm) and this is the one that underlines all of my work: ✨Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.✨ ✍️This is why I write content even if no one sees it 👥 This is why I worked my heart out during the kickstart scheme 📝This is why I put together a report reviewing hiring practices in game dev 🛠️This is why I created the Entry Level Skills Hub 🌍This is why I founded Bird's Eye View ➡️ I don't do it for the awards, but this one got me crying today. So if I may ask you for just one more thing, please check out the nominees and cast your vote! You have until the 31st of May. THANK YOU! Ps.: You must be registered to attend Develop Brighton this year, or have attended in the past 3 years to vote. Find a link on your inbox.

Daily Games Jobs Updates: Today's 168 New Roles, With Links As Project Jessica, my semi-automated approach to delivering new games roles more quickly, continues to improve, the quality and speed of what I can offer to the community grows. My eventual goal is to provide updates every 24 hours with the day's new games roles. These will include the company name, job title, location, remote-friendly status, and categorization into our community's standardized 19 functional areas. I've also figured out how to include direct job links for easier access. As always, these updates are available at amirsatvat.com under Category #3, Resource #11: "New Games Roles." Resource #11 complements Resource #10, the Games Jobs Workbook, a less frequently populated but definitive list of all jobs across all companies. I'll do my best to keep this daily and appreciate your patience as I fine-tune the semi-automation process to bring you better games job data each day. DIG IN! https://lnkd.in/e5hgemKT
