Tips from the top

As part of the PocketGamer.biz 'New Year, New Job' series, we recently spoke to Fishlabs' lead recruiter Marc Morian, and his advice to job seekers was to remember the fundamentals in your application.

"Submit a detailed, comprehensive and easy-to-read CV," Morian advised.

"Make sure your cover letter answers the key questions: Why games? Why mobile/browser/console etc.? Why this company? Why this particular job? Why you, not someone else? Why should we believe you can actually do the job? Relate your previous experience to the tasks outlined in the job ad!

"Also don't forget to research the company and play its games. Make sure people will get the impression that working with you will be a pleasant experience. Do all that and you'll be just fine."

The full list of Fishlabs vacancies, along with a host of other open industry positions, can be found on the PocketGamer.biz jobs board.
