   How did you get in the industry?
  So, I'd like to hear your story. My story :At the age of 10 my big brother brought me an delphi programming software, very very old one. It was mostly playing around with it´s features (adding calendar, etc.). After one year he brought me visual basic 5, oh.. that glory. I even made a few games with it. Two years had passed since I started programming and I decided that it is time to move on to C/C++. I made some small text / windows based programs before I started using DirectX (version 5), did a few 2D graphics engines (old dawn bringers) and some games with them, then I moved on to 3D, I was something like 14-15 years-old. At the age of 16 I started studying computer science at open university of Jyväskylä, I had already received some job offers.  When I was 18 I started working at Indiepath Ltd. as a game programmer  for about 8 months, it was an great experience, at that time I also wrote my first work contract and NDA (it was very cool at the time). About two months ago when I stopped working there Hybrid Graphics Ltd.(NVidia Corporation) wanted me to come to talk with them, so I did and after one week I made a contract with Hybrid. I'm still 18 and I currently work at Hybrid Graphics as a Software Systems Engineer, this has been very exciting time because I joined in when NVidia bought Hybrid Graphics, so there has been lots of things going on. :)   
  My brother showed me QBASIC when I was 8. Oh, and from there it all goes down hill!Really, I got in because someone who knew someone knew a job opening! That's the way the industry works, every gets a job based on contacts.The interview process was so incredibly difficult. I got drilled for an hour on the phone interview with all technical questions. Ranging from assembly, architecture, math, 3d engine questions, 3d gameplay questions, and C++. I was flown out and did a three hour interview with a paper and pen solving another wide range of questions out on paper. Extremely difficult open ended problems. In the end though, I got the job so I must of done something right.- Dave   ;  I responded to a job opening listed on Craig's List New York for a sales rep. I nailed the interview and got an offer the next day.   ;Quote:Original post by OluseyiI responded to a job opening listed on Craig's List New York for a sales rep.
