We’ve gotten off to a busy start this week – the turkey-induced comas have started to wear off, and companies are once again posting new job ads.  I’ve said many times that one of the main reasons that we started this site was to help smaller/newer/unique/etc. studios get their jobs posted and seen by job hunters.  We love having the major players post, too, but it’s nice to learn about new companies as they pop up on GJH.  There are always a LOT of jobs open in the game industry, but they can be tricky to find if you’re not sure where to look.  It’s been very rewarding to see a steady stream of new sign-ups, especially when I’m learning about that company for the first time!  I feel like it’s given us a very unique mix of small/medium/large company job postings that you just don’t see at other sites.

Here’s a quick rundown of the new companies we’ve had post in the past few weeks:

• Scientifically Proven Studios – they’re looking for a gameplay programmer in Detroit, MI.
• Arkadium – creators of a variety of casual games and a casual game platform.  They’re in NYC, and they’re looking for a senior designer.
• 360ED – I actually know the founders here – several EA vets that are now working on educational and virtual classroom titles.
• Nikitova LLC – an art outsourcing group who is looking for an art director.
