Industry Speaking: At the University of Bradford

MarkBlog

After two previous and successful discussions at the University (the first on setting up an indie studio and the second on things all indies must know), Mark was invited back a third time, tasked with broaching the subject: What we look for in a Graduate.

Providing some general advice on CV writing, cover letters and portfolios, Mark then delved into the specifics of how to get noticed – and often the pitfalls many an applicant make!

There was a lively discussion in the Q&A section of the talk, with many of the students already looking at the state of the industry, getting hired into larger companies and focusing more on targeting jobs in their specialisation – with some considering forming an indie studio themselves.
