Hello everybody

This is no spam. This mail was sent by me. My apologizes, if anybody has felt inconvenient, but I intentionally sent this to every recipient, as part of my job hunt.

Kinda sad, really.

However, I work at a game publisher, and we hire 250+ game testers per testing season.
‘Most recent games played’ is actually one of the questions on the application form they fill out when they come for their interview.

These aren’t software engineer positions, though…

There’s been an upsurge in job-hunting spam lately, from “recruiters”… this is the first I’ve heard of one from a “seeker”, but it definitely sounds like phishing spam.
