Talented people looking for work

Ex Vivendi staff set up mobile games jobs board
A group of former Vivendi Games Mobile staff have set up their own jobs board, touting their skills to other mobile games companies.

It's called Talented People, and includes CVs and profiles for former staff in financial, administration, project management, developers, artists, testing, business development, legal, commercial, sales and marketing.

It's an impressive approach to finding work for the many staff left dangling after Vivendi pulled out of the mobile market last year.

However, with many rival publishers making their own cutbacks and/or freezing recruitment at the moment, the outlook is somewhat bleak for all but the most talented people in mobile games right now.

Still, Vivendi released some impressive titles in 2008, so the Talented People site is sure to attract potential employers to see what (and who) is on offer.
