Hey guys and gals, I've recently quit my day job and gone full time into contract work. I thought it might help out others if I gave my experiences in this process. I may just crash and burn, but at least it'll serve as a deterrent if I do! Here's the link: http://tomrab.weheartgames.com/category/blog

Good luck mate. I recently did the same thing. My first job in the industry was a permanent position, but now im contracting and have landed an ideal role in the games industry on a cross platform title. I think the main thing is just to do good work and keep good relationships with career advisors and you'll be ok.

Hope it all goes well!
