G4U features a “Complete Guide to Landing a Video Game Job,” which includes school guides or programs like Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab in Boston, The Gnomon Workshop, and The Guildhall at SMU, and a How-To section on becoming a professional in the video game industry, such as a producer, journalist, community manager, game artist, game tester, and eSports commentator.

The comprehensive course also features job advice from Irrational Games’ Ken Levine

, Adam Sessler from G4tv and X-Play, and Dr. Ray Muzyka and Dr. Greg Zeschuk from BioWare, among others, and also informative testimonies from working professionals from Bethesda Softworks, Blizzard Entertainment, and Guerilla Games, as well as composers, level designers and game testers from top games.

And if that wasn’t enough, there’s a career resource guide to help the aspiring video game pro get started, included what blogs to read, basic software and other resources, networking opportunities, and career counseling.
