    John, that's very interesting, thank you for sharing.


    Is the Designer position still available for those that live in another country and are willing to relocate?


    This person for instance worked professionally as a Game Designer for serious games but always focused on entertainment, and is also developing a game by himself

    Yes. It will be.

    Yes you would be required to relocate and have the appropriate permissions to work in the country.

    Oh, thank you for the reply!


    A few questions:

    1. Is the visa the only thing required for the "appropriate permissions" to work, or is there anything else?
    2. How can I obtain the permissions?

    I believed the game studios helped with that after they hired you. I mean, is it possible to get the work permit without a job?

    I never worked outside my country, but I'm looking forward to it.


    Thank you

    As far as I understand (I'm looking for jobs abroad since a while) what is meant by companies placing those notices is that you don't have any impediment to get a VISA (read: committed crimes, previous VISA infractions etc.).

    I think some countries allow you to get a VISA without you having a job already, I've read a bit about Canada but also Australia is welcoming specialized immigrants (or maybe you could say leading the way).

    "Specialized" usually means higher education. In general a degree always helps to get visas and all that done, because governments don't really understand the concept of merited experience.

    I really want to apply for that position (Designer) mentioned by Ginger Lord, but I'm a little uncertain about that aspect. I have a Bachelor degree in Game Design, so I believe that should ease any process (of getting work permit).

    I don't see any consequence in trying? It's not like they'll send you to the gulag because you don't have a visa yet.
