Your odds of finding a job in games | Amir Satvat’s Project Flagpole

The probability of any game industry applicant landing a job in the games industry is about 4% over a period of 12 months.

But Satvat added a new data point at the community’s request: the odds of finding a role in games as a new applicant if you are out of school or have three or fewer years of work experience. Regarding the number of people unemployed, Satvat’s best figures still suggest that 30% or more of those laid off since November 2022 have been looking for a year or longer. For the equilibrium of, on average, more people being hired in games versus being fired on a trailing 60-day basis, Satvat still believes this will happen in 2024.
