What skills are major game development companies looking for?

 

Are you interested in or thinking about entering the job market as a game developer? I recently attended the Academic Days on Game Development in Computer Science Education Conference which provided some interesting facts. At the conference, Electronic Arts, Blizzard, Bungie and Garage Games revealed the specific knowledge set and skills they look out for in candidates when hiring new game developers. You can refer to their informative slides by clicking on the links below:
