The working shifts are 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. or from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. (the testers are required to work on the same shift for the whole duration of a project).The job is to play a game translated to your native language and check the quality of the translation, look for spelling mistakes, punctuation mistakes, special characters not displayed correctly, text not fitting in the frame it should fit it, mistranslations etc., all while playing the game. Each linguistic bug needs to be reported in our database. We work with companies such as Capcom, Bandai Namco, Ubisoft, Bethesda, Square Enix, Paradox Interactive, Warner etc., so most of the time those are not boring mobile games, but big AAA titles.The requirements are:- to be a native speaker of one of the abovementioned languages and to know the works of your native language (grammar, spelling, style etc.)- to speak and write good English (it is the language of internal communication between testers on projects and also the language of bug reporting)- to know your way around Microsoft Office Suit- to be a gamerIf you're interested, send your CV/resume to careers@q-loc.com and I'll contact you shortly. Thank you for your attention.
OP QLOC 1 | 5 27 Jan 2016 #3@KezcaisimYou need to be physically in Warsaw to do this job (you can't do it from home). Moreover, our recruitment process requires you to come to our office, so we won't know if we want to hire you until you're in Poland. So you can apply even if you're not in Poland yet, but we can only schedule an interview after you come.
