The Video Game Staffing Process

Your Quest for the Best: Direct-Hire Positions and Contract Jobs


Wired Talent has played the recruiting game many times over and mastered it on all levels. Because our staffing services are video game-specific, we know what works when recruiting in an industry with unlimited potential. And what it boils down to is this: every client is different and so our hiring process is custom-tailored to fit clients’ unique specs.

And while clients’ needs vary, the goal is always the same: to find the perfect fit between candidate and client. We achieve this through a careful screening process of both sides, the talent and the talent seeker. Our video game recruiters perform all the legwork that neither side realistically has time for, getting to know our clients’ business models and our candidates’ goals so we can deliver a great match. Our method zooms in on making connections based on a cultural and technical fit.

How Do We Do This?

We take the time to shadow jobs and interview clients, picking their brains to understand what they need. Even if we’ve staffed the same position a million times, we always go straight to the client to set up a game plan. Then we tap into our extensive web of candidates, crawling with an array of talent and skill sets. If the ideal candidate isn’t in our talent pool, we’ll do crazy things to track your talent down.

Once we find the perfect candidate, we use thorough screening to assess him or her based on experience, likes, dislikes and more. We provide skills testing to discover what stage in the candidate’s video game career he or she is at.

Clients can rest assured that we’ve done our homework and have presented the best of the best talent for contract jobs and direct-hire video game positions. And, we do it with the efficiency of someone who’s been at it for more than 35 years because we’re a specialty division of The Eastridge Group of Staffing Companies – named one of the Largest Staffing Firms in the U.S. by Staffing Industry Analysts, Inc.

We’re so sure of our placements, that we back each of them with some of the most flexible guarantees in the industry. It’s no wonder why so many video game companies choose to Get Wired.
