Andrew Overfield | Game Your Future #1

Описание: Game Your Future Podcast Ep. 1

Can your gaming experience actually help you land a job? What if the hours you spent beating monsters or playing with friends were for more than just fun — what if it were real leadership training?

In this episode of the Game Your Future Podcast, I sit down with Andrew Overfield, a game industry recruiter, talent acquisition specialist, and fellow gamer, to explore how your skills from MMOs like Final Fantasy XIV, World of Warcraft, or SWTOR can translate into real-world job opportunities — even in the gaming industry itself.

🧠 We talk about:

What recruiters actually look for in candidates (especially in gaming)
Why your raid leadership is a sign of real-world leadership potential
How to talk about your gaming background in resumes and interviews
The truth about failure, rejection, and bouncing back
Behind-the-scenes insights from someone hiring for studios like PlayStation, Respawn, and Infinity Ward

Whether you’re dreaming of working in games or want to level up your career with the skills you’ve already built as a player, this episode will help you start connecting the dots.
