Re: Looking for a job in computer games.
The Chaos Engine, that's the forum you want...but there's a few games people on this site...anyway...if your interested in DS (dev support), you'll need concise English, be able to write coherent reports, work stupid long hours towards crunch time and get paid even less than us artists if your on salary...and if waged, you'll at least get good over time on short term basis.
There are millions of other games related website, best of which is probably www.gamasutra.com
For jobs, there are loads, but I can't be bothered to go through the list of good ones, but there's a comprehensive list on the Chaos Engine Forum. - http://www.thechaosengine.com/phpBB2/index.php
Edit: I think you need to join to see the job sites listing, and to join, you've already got to be in the industry.

If you know more about games than just the usersurface, I know there is jobs to get in two Danish companies: IO Interactive (Hitman) and Deadline Games. One of them also has a game tester position lately, but I think these jobs are not paid. If you are interested you can go to www.JobsinCopenhagen.com, where the positions of both companies are listed. No Danish is required for the vacancies...
Best regards,
