[Tami]

If you want to find out more about what jobs are currently available within the games industry, here are the four key recruitment agencies that operate within the sector.

OPM

OPM has been established for five years. Specialising only in Games and Interactive Entertainment, its in-house experience totals 15 years. It handles vacancies for development, publishing, retail, distribution, peripherals, middleware and other associated businesses. Clients vary in size from very small entrepreneurial creative teams to the largest corporations in the world, both by head count and turnover. Many use OPM exclusively or as one of the few consultancies on their preferred supplier list. The firm has a reputation for quality rather than quantity and for providing an honest personal professional service to clients and candidates alike. Some 50 per cent of OPM candidates have registered as a result of recommendation from a friend - see the testimonials on the web site. You only get one chance to make a first impression, register with OPM and get it right.

Okay well I'm not sure if this would be the right place to uhh post this link or not <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /blink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':blink:\' /> but I know of a Gaming company which is REALLY good. Basically, this company is making one of the most beautiful tycoon games according to GameSpy (website). They're really good with 3D and if you are interested they do have some job openings. Only down part about this company is that you must be in the UK as they are not a huge company located around different parts of the world.
