Offer decent pay.
Money.
I know some friends who are full stack, or backend developer, who would like to be game developer, if only the salary match his current position, or at least not lower than 10%>
“Fuck you, pay me.”
Leaving the EU was a major problem. All game developers in other EU countries pull from all over the EU for their talent pool, but that’s much harder for the UK now.
Pay more salary to attract talent from different sub-major of this software development
it also seems like the games industry as it is now is pretty low pay and high demand working environment. so good luck with that
The article has all the answers:
- pay them
- employ juniors and make it attractive for them to stay
- add salary information to job ads. not “competitive salary”, which means less than nothing
It isn’t rocket science. You recruit from the market or train your own.
It’s painful they do not get this.
Move out of UK.
Sounds like skill issue.
I had a family friend who worked as a midlevel dev at Rockstar 10 years ago and he was being paid £27k while crunching 100 hour weeks
