I work in the game industry, and have worked for multiple years as a game tester.
Degreelink.org advertises on facebook a lot with game tester degrees, saying one can make 59k or better. They link a Government survey on the gaming industry. They present the WRONG information from that article... See Moreand are LYING in their advertisement:

"Earnings: There are no BLS data for game testers. According to job announcements, temporariy testers usually earn between 46.50 and $8 an hour."
Please.. DO NOT GO GET A DEGREE IN GAME TESTING. They are basically performing FRAUD.Show less
I would NEVER use degreelink.org because their "Christian Counselor" ad is so misleading to me. They always show a tattooed or overly pierced person on their ad. Just because someone needs counseling, does not mean they have to look different. I AM a Christian but just because of that -... See Moreit does not mean that I would make a better counselor even with a degree. Also, if you are not a Christian now, within a year, are they going to "make" you one so you can be the Christian Counselor? I'm sounding off on this web site because I can not find contact information on degreelink.org.Show less
