At the moment inside fxphd’s Background Fundamentals here at fxphd, we are focusing on Jobs. We have already started and we are continue to talk to a huge array of senior recruiters from companies such as ILM, Double Negative, Animal Logic, Digital Domain, Rising Sun and others. We are looking not only the general issue of applying for jobs, but the specifics of what skills you need for a range of very real jobs, such as Matchmoving, Lighting TDs, Roto artists, Layout artists, Simulation TDs etc..
Key to this endeavor is that you still have time to get your questions answered, while we have spoken to a bunch of people already, we have deliberately not done all the interviews so we can factor in any specific issue you may have, – just post questions in the BKD forum and we’ll try and get as detailed as we can. Allow us to ask for you, the stupid questions you have always wanted to ask a recruiter – few of us rarely need to talk to recruiters so very few people are experts and no doubt that “one stupid” question about hiring policies you have – is the same one everyone else has been wondering about! We continue this trend over at fxguide where we also have some interviews highlighting expansion at places like ILM Singapore and elsewhere.
So please – we are really keen to hear from you in the fxphd forums, let us know what you want to hear about and what you think.
