My biggest win with gamedev:hq would probably be landing a job a couple of months after completing the program. The structured curriculum and live mentorship made all the difference.
MORE SUCCESS STORIES
Marc Hewitt
Software Engineer at Zynga
“In just 2 months GameDevHQ’s game development career program helped fine-tune my job search, fill in a development gap I wasn’t even aware of, and allowed me to demo my value to the job market. After those 2 months, I had not only recruiters but HR at companies directly chasing me with good offers at companies I was excited to work with.”
Mike Brisson
Game Developer at Activision
“Because of GameDevHQ I’m now working as a Game Developer at Activision working on Call of Duty Mobile!”
Liberty Depriest
Game Developer at Space Rat
“I was able to expand my network and get a position at Space Rat. The support from the GameDevHQ team itself is really cool. The fact that there are coaches and a whole Discord available when I have a problem is a game changer. I can just ask someone real quick instead of having to go through a whole process of searching for an answer. Sometimes something catastrophic happens, I have really good coaches to help me through the problem.”
Adam Reed
Sr. Unity Developer at Boom Interactive
“I can’t think of a better investment – I mean the money that I put into this program has been added on exponentially with the money that I make now. I’ve worked in multiple senior level positions since I started this program. This program has beyond more than paid for itself.”
Fran-kee Brown
UI Programmer at Epic Games
” waited some time before posting this but I am proud to say that I am #hired ! Starting next Monday I will start my first day at Epic Games as a UI Programmer Apprentice! It took time and hard work but it finally paid off. Excited to get started! I am super excited for what the future holds.”
Samuel Arminana
Sr. Unity Developer at Boddle Learning
“I have just signed an offer to become a Senior Unity Game Developer for an educational game startup, Boddle Learning!

Especially Jonathan Weinberger from GameDevHQ for getting me connected to this opportunity :)”
