GICG047: Should I take a video game job I don’t want, just to get my foot in the door?

This week's question is from Indigo, who asks "I have a question about taking a job in a position you don’t want just to get your foot in the door. I’ve had many teachers and other people tell me that taking a QA job or a 2D art job is a good idea just to get in. But I know that I really wouldn’t enjoy it nearly as much as a 3D art position. But it’s pretty hard to find a 3D position. So I’m not sure what to do. Any advice would be great." LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE Thanks for listening! Remember: Work hard, work smart, don't give up, and you WILL get that job. To ask me a question to be answered on this podcast, just leave a comment or send an email.
