GICG038: If I land a game dev job in a new city, can I get help with moving costs?

This week's question is from Kit, who asks "I live in a state where there is no real game development work around, which puts me in a pickle because when I graduate I will have a degree but nowhere to use it. I already know that my best bet is to move to another state like Washington, but how does someone like me who will be new to the industry land that first job when migration cost has to be a factor? I've heard that some companies will help with this if they really want you to work with them, but I will not have a reputation at this point so I don't see that happening. Do you have any suggestions?" LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE Thanks for listening. Email me if you'll be at GDC 2016, let's connect!
