IF by devotion they mean a guy who loves games as a lifestyle and to dedicate their life and soul into a company who loves making games for gamers, than yes.
If they mean someone who knows how to use programs to create games, than no. But thanks for the heads up.

monosylabik..... make us proud ;-)
I would TOTALLY apply for the writers posistion...if my book was done and I had something to show off :*(
i'd rather work at gamecock, those guys are rad.
AI people? YES.
I'd work for Bioware if it was my job to stand over the developers with a whip and a bullhorn, screaming and lashing until they get that fucking framerate under control!!! Oh and the inventory system sucks! Fix it! Fix it now!
...I guess what I'm saying is they need more supervisors...
Fuck, 2 years too early. Wait until I've finished my course THEN do this Bioware!
Boolean dont worry about the timing..its best to get your name and work out there. the key is for you to start networking early it will help out a lot later down the line.
Yes people...come work in Edmonton! Home of the proud 13th place Oilers! And -40 degree wind chills!
It's times like this when I'm gutted BioWare doesn't have an English office. :(
Hell I'd work for them even if I had to make the tea all day.
Failing that I'll just be a brutal games tester.
Send in the recruits! Good for them.
Thanks so much for this! This is exactly what I was looking for
