Jobs in Video Game Journalism

Breaking into the gaming industry is no easy feat. It’s a growing industry that every passionate gamer wants a piece of, and only those with the experience and talent get in through the gates.

Don’t worry, I’m not dimming your dreams–actually, I’m offering you a leg up.

GameSkinny Offers Relevant Experience

We offer you relevant industry experience that will give your resume the boost it needs to get noticed by the big leagues. By writing for us, you gain experience in dealing with editors, an audience and even how to improve your writing.

You don’t have to be an expert to write for us. All you have to do is be a passionate gamer who knows the difference between Mario and Sonic. You don’t even have to like writing! We accept all kinds of content. These can be video reviews, podcasts on your favorite games or event clips that you really like.

We love pieces that offer insights on tips, reviews, culture and the like. We’re not all about one thing or another–we’re all about you!

We’re a pretty big site here, so it’s a solid guarantee that your content will be read. This is an amazing thing to put on your resume and shows that you have experience in actually writing to an audience. We’ll help you promote your content through our social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, so that you can share those posts with your friends.

Creating your GameSkinny profile is actually pretty easy. Your GameSkinny profile can look as professional as you want it to–from a bio that reeks of LinkedIn or your favorite movie quote (my personal favorite) to a gravatar of Homer Simpson, the professionalism of your profile is completely up to you.

So, what are you waiting for? Signing up is as easy as pie and if you’ve ever used Guild Launch then your account works here too! We want to see what you’ve got!
