you should seriously spellcheck if you want to be taken seriously...

These guys have a pretty good track record so far, and have worked on some pretty cool titles.  It seems like they've been looking for talent for ages, though...  I'm not sure why no one's taken them up on the offer, thus far?

I would have applied myself, except I already moved away from Ontario, to Alberta, and don't really want to move back.  If only they'd consider remote work! :P

keep it ON topic guys.
Ens: a few spelling mistakes isn't the end of the world. It's the content provided that's intruging in itself. If only I lived in Ontario... no wait... that'd suck. Cowtown sucks too.
Seriously though. It sounds like a good opportunity for anyone in that area. Good luck!

LAST OFF TOPIC POST!:
pb, i know...  im just saying though...  if i see a work add that has alot of spelling errors online (ie monster.com) i will pass it by, cause imo, not proof-reading a work needed ad is a sign of unprofessionalism, and i have dealt with them enough...

anyways...  if i lived in canada, i would apply for sure, especially with a chance of moving to london.  gl

Things change over time. I have options available in London, and have emailed an application.

Hi guys,

 

Just to clarify few things. It seems that one of the positions will be filled fairly soon, but we are always looking for a new talents.

If your portfolio is really good, we will pay for the moving expenses and in some cases we will help you getting the work visa.

And, yes as someone noticed we are NOT looking for contractors.
