How to get a job as a junior game developer?

The qualifications you need to become a junior game developer include an associate degree in graphic design, programming, computer science, or a similar field of study and prior experience with designing and programming video games. Some employers are willing to hire current students, but this may be an internship instead of a paid position. It helps to know a variety of programming and script languages for these positions, such as Perl and C/C++. You should also have experience with graphics rendering, game movement physics, and audio design, even if these skills are self-taught. Having a certification in one or more of these relevant skills can help you qualify for junior game developer positions.
