As a former game developer turned recruitment practitioner, I bring a unique perspective that sets me apart in the world of talent acquisition. I've worked across the spectrum of games, from live service games such as League of Legends and Orcs Must Die!, to major franchises like DOOM (2016) and the revered Perfect Dark.What distinguishes me from conventional recruiters?𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Having weathered the storms of last-minute build failures, grappled with P0 bugs sneaking into Production, and navigated seemingly aimless internal playtests—I've been in the developer's shoes. I've gone through certification, seen projects go gold, and delivered crucial Day 1 patches. Candidates resonate with someone who comprehends the developer's world, and I share that intimate understanding.𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐮𝐥𝐬𝐞: My superpower lies in decoding what hiring managers truly seek. My background in the development pipeline empowers me to pose the right questions and pinpoint the precise requirements—be it technical skills, designers with a specific approach to iterating on creative ideas, or the scope and scale of project responsibility. Rather than fixating on job titles or keywords, I keenly identify the crux of the hiring manager's needs and seek individuals who genuinely align.𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐕𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: My approach isn't about selling a project, a company, or a person; it's about equipping decision-makers with the vision they need to do their job. I partner with people to provide valuable insights with a clear and comprehensive view so making informed choices based on the most current and accurate information available are made with confidence.𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: My tenure in quality assurance instilled in me the critical importance of reliable and timely data. This ethos manifests in how meticulously I track and contextualize data, ensuring accuracy and reliability at every step.My journey from game development to recruitment is more than a transition; it's a fusion of experiences that uniquely equips me to bridge the gap between talent and opportunity.
