    I guess Norway isn't near Texas, is it?

    I am able, I just need help with getting permission from ze governments!

    "or be able to relocate"

    It says nothing about open to US citizens only. Why not hold back your petty crap and let someone answer who actually knows the answers :roll:

    i hope you intend to get a visa.good luck getting citizenship, my dad (a swede) has been trying for a little over five years now.

    I sent this thread to a friend of mine whos looking for work. He has 8 months experience using Ue3 and a published game as a level designer. Hopefully you'll get an email from dmanns

    Mikezilla, how much support does the company give to foreign applicants ? I heard it's pretty hard (nearly impossible) to get a work permit for the USA if you got no university degree. Maybe it's possible with company sponsorship ?

    You're continental. Just drive across the border.

    No but for real, I'm a little unsure as to how that all is working at the moment. I know a college degree makes it quite a bit simpler. Really, all I'm going on is that they want all the applications.

    Who knows, maybe we'll toss out offsite contracts to a few really qualified people (don't quote me on that.)

    From what i know its nearly impossible nowadays to get a work visa for USA especially after 911. I informed myself because Treyarch showed interest in me two times.

    Afaik the company has to proof that this job cant be done by an american. Another option is the company makes an extra investment related to this job (100k if im right). The third option is the foreigner will be hired for one of the leader jobs. Fourth option the foreigner owns a decent part of the company.

    Bump - I'd like to add we've also got some open slots on Borderlands yet, so also prod our way if that seems like your cup of tea and feel free to ping me with any questions.
