Help me get into Rockstar ;)

December 1, 2009 8:05 AM

I have a phone interview with Rockstar New England. What should I expect? And is there anything obvious I need to prepare.

I'm applying for a Game Programmer position. I applied there a couple of years ago when it was MadDoc Software. At that time, they handed me a 10 part test upon applying. It seems to me that their interview process has changed. And if I recall there were people on MeFi who work there. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated, of course.

So, what is the process like these days. And is there something specific you recommend I brush upon.

Thanks!

Especially since there are people who work there on here, this is probably not the best idea to post non-anonymized. The last thing you want is for the hiring manager to think "is this guy actually good, or was he just prepped well by insiders".

Or the hiring manager could think "This guy is using every resource at his disposal to make a good impression...good on him."

If you want insights from a woman who plays their boy games, mail me.
