Lisa,

Just a thought but you may find some connections in this Ning network centered around Video Game Recruiters. It's a humble membership, but seems to be a good group of people and at a minimum a possible source for new contacts doing the deals.

Click here.

Thanks RecruiterGuy. I can't seem to join the Video Game Recruiters group. Do I have to create a new account?

Best,

Lisa

You shouldn't need to, Lisa. When you click that link it should just ask for your Ning id and login - the same you use here, I'd bet. :-)

I'm not an agency recruiter, however the person I would recommend in the game industry as a very good agency recruiter is Yelena Spector. (yelena@datascopeUSA.com)

I run TalentSpring and we a job board for the Game Industry and similar industries. Yelena is one person I've chatted with on several occasions about getting feedback on our plans in the game industry.

She has a lot of experience and her firm has great support for agency recruiting in the game industry.

Hi Bryan,
Thanks for the info. I did check your site and find it very interesting. I'm not sure what is the cost to register as an employer. Please comment.

Thanks,

Lisa
