A gaming studio lost 4 devs in 3 months despite careful hiring. A hiring metric not to be overlooked in 2025: Retention. A hot topic at conferences and with clients. A few thoughts to consider on why retention matters. Meaningful hiring shapes team success. Many teams miss this crucial point. They focus on skills alone. And then? You’ve seen it happen. The wrong person joins. - They clash with the team - The role isn’t what they expected - They leave within months High turnover isn’t just expensive. It’s disruptive. - Teams lose momentum - Morale goes down - Trust as well when people constantly leave Which can lead to that domino effect of talent leaving. Or arguably worse no more discretionary effort. When you shift from "Can they code?" to "Can they thrive?” You begin: - Defining roles clearly (no surprises for anyone) - Aligning hires with long-term goals - Prioritising team culture and vision fit Because when people feel aligned: - They weather the tough sprints - They grow with the studio - They build something lasting Do you agree that rejection can be avoided before an offer is accepted? Drop your thoughts.

IT'S WHITEBOARD WEDNESDAY! In the beginning of practice ownership, it's common for many owners to struggle to find the right staff. Instead, they deal with constant headaches such as client upsets and long nights that leave them coming home late to their family. In this episode of Whiteboard Wednesday, Mike Bills, PT, of Measurable Solutions explains how to find your rockstar staff in just a few simple steps.

Contrast Studio is almost 1 year old. It’s a productized design service. The more I work with this model the more I realize it’s better for early-stage companies than hiring. Besides being cheaper, it helps maintain focus. Here’s why. With full-time employees, startups often don’t have enough work to fill their capacity week after week for an entire year. That’s money lost for the company and managers feel pressured to fill in the gaps with BS work (vision projects, explorations, pointless iterations, projects that won’t be developed for months, etc.) That’s just treading water. That drains designers of creative energy. Why not just pause work? With a full-time hire, they’re locked in. It’s all or nothing. 100mph or 0. That doesn’t make sense. With a productized service clients know they are buying outcomes, not time. They understand my time is limited and valuable. That pushes them to focus only on what matters and frees up my time to help other clients with impactful projects instead of pretending to work. PS: don’t get me started on how much time wasting goes on in big companies… so much money wasted. #productivity

What does sustainability in hiring mean? According to the Oxford dictionary, sustainability is "the ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level." In the games industry, to me, it signifies an end to the constant churn of layoffs and studio shutdowns. At Simply Sweet Games, sustainability in hiring means having an effective and equitable recruitment process that focuses on long-term growth. We prioritize our employees’ well-being, ensuring they achieve personal and professional satisfaction in their work. We celebrate the benefits of remote work and strive to actively foster a rich, inclusive work environment where all team members can thrive. We believe in ongoing skill development and continuous learning opportunities for everyone. Transparency and fairness are at the heart of our hiring practices. Carina Kom and I are dedicated to reducing bias and promoting equity. While we are committed to growth, we remain cautious about over-hiring, seeking collaboration with external partners to build responsibly. By managing risk effectively, we aim to support sustainable hiring practices in our industry. Let’s be the changemakers. Join us at Simply Sweet Games in creating a sustainable and inclusive future in gaming! #sustainablehiring #inclusiveworkplace #gameindustry #remotework #diversityandinclusion #workplaceequity #employeewellbeing #gamingindustry #changemakers #startuplife #sustainability

5 things I learned hiring for game studios in 2024. After interviewing 100's of candidates this year. The old playbook: - Fancy gym memberships - Stocked beer fridges - Board game libraries Look good on the surface.. But not "essential". 5 things employees care for: 1. Psychological safety Employees don’t just want to survive at work,they want to thrive in a safe and? supportive environment. 2. True Flexible working Harmony between work and life isn't a luxury, it’s a necessity 3. Transparent communication from leadership. Having an open book management team instills culture. 4. Career growth and development? People invest in companies that invest in them. 5. The human touch Their voice to be heard. Their impact to be visible. Culture isn't about perks. Culture is how people feel on a Sunday. Founders consider this: “Vitamins” don’t create dream teams. Essentials do. And those that meet human needs. PS. What did I miss?
