What's it like to be a Microsoft Game Tester?
It is very possible to make money being a game tester, but one of the best ways to do so is to work with one of the
large companies, like those that are a Microsoft game tester. There are other companies that can help you make
money being a game tester, such as the little companies that design games for the large companies, or the
companies that outsource for the large companies. But the best way to make a good amount of money is to work for
a large software company, like Microsoft.
Microsoft brings in around $51 billion dollars a year. This is a huge amount of money, and it is made mainly through
the Window’s software and through the Microsoft Game Studios. The Game Studios subsidiary has made the
company millions upon millions of dollars thanks to its ingenious Xbox and Xbox 360, which is one of the most
popular gaming systems available on the market today.
The company was created by Bill Gates in 1975. Gates attended Harvard University but left after he helped the
creators of the Altair 8800 design a BASIC programming language. He then pursued building Microsoft and did so in
only a few short years. Now Microsoft is one of the largest powerhouse computer companies that exists.
Game Testing for Microsoft
Just like any large company, Microsoft needs video game testers to work for them in order to assure that the
products they put out are only the best quality. One can work for Microsoft in two capacities: as a tester for their
computer systems and video games or as a Microsoft game tester for their Xbox label. Which you choose depends
on what type of specialty and knowledge you have.
Working as a tester for Microsoft computer systems often requires that you have more than a passing knowledge of
how a computer works. You may not need to have programming skills, but you should be comfortable running a
large number of different types of programs on the market, as you may be asked to run tests on some of the more
mundane computer projects.
Those who work for the Xbox label under Microsoft Game Studios will most likely be sentenced to playing games day
in and day out. For at true gamer, this is not a hardship. They will generally test every function of a specific game,
making sure that the game works perfectly and is enjoyable to play. Many believe that working for Microsoft Game
Studios is more enjoyable, but working for Microsoft computer systems has its rewards as well.
There are plenty of opportunities with the Microsoft companies, you just have to choose what type of position you
would like to have and are qualified for. In order to work with them, simply contact their human resources
department and ask how you can become a Microsoft game tester.
