Hiring Kit: Video Game Programmer

Coding a digital video game not only requires a thorough knowledge of programming language, it also requires a deep understanding of the game engine, the APIs and the creative assets that will eventually inhabit the game being produced. Successfully applying all of these skills requires exceptional attention to detail and an inherent ability to collaborate with others, even if the others are not blessed with programming skills themselves.

This hiring kit from TechRepublic Premium provides an adjustable framework your business can use to find the right video game programmer.

How individuals handle this interaction is of paramount importance when recruiting and vetting candidates.
