Major Players

Microsoft is an established player in the rapidly growing gaming industry. Microsoft Games Studios consists of 14 separate studios spread over four major cities that develop games for the PC, Xbox, and online platforms. Each studio is its own entity, focused on its own particular genre (racing, action/adventure, sports, flight simulation, etc.) and displaying its own unique personality.

We are looking for smart, quick, personable individuals who are committed to helping people. Customer service is generally the place to begin a career in the Microsoft support department. However, think of Microsoft entry-level positions as escalator positions: as a customer service employee, you receive world-class in-house training to keep abreast of the latest technologies. This can be a springboard to many rewarding career opportunities throughout the company.

A key attraction is Xbox, the Microsoft video game system that brings dynamic power to gaming and home entertainment. Xbox empowers game artists by giving them the technology to fulfill their creative visions and construct games that blur the lines between fantasy and reality.

Microsoft is looking for experienced game developers, artists, producers, testers, audio designers, motion-capture specialists, and designers. We provide the resources; you provide the imagination, creativity, and inspiration.
