// Signals · Weekly BD brief
A curated weekly brief for games-recruiting boutiques. Five to eight studios genuinely ramping in your specialty, hand-verified against the source before it reaches you, with the reason each one is worth a call right now.
// The brief · What you get
01 // 5–8 verified leads
Every lead is checked against the live source posting before the brief goes out. A dead role in a brief is our problem, so we find it first.
02 // Why it's pitchable
Each studio arrives with the context that makes the call worth making this week — not a row of raw fields for you to interpret.
03 // A lead-strength tier
Strong, moderate or weak, derived from raw posting adds in the trailing 14 days, so you know how hot a lead is before you spend a call on it.
04 // Cut to your patch
Up to three specialties and ten studios you care about. Reply any time to re-tune it — there is no limit on how often.
The row below shows the shape of every lead, using a placeholder studio. Real leads are verified the morning they are sent, which is why we don’t leave them standing on a web page.
| Studio | Role | Days open | Strength | Why pitchable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Example Studio | Senior Gameplay Engineer | 10 | Strong | Ramp signal fired this week — 6 roles added in the trailing 14 days. |
Strength: strong = 3 or more postings added in the trailing 14 days · moderate = 1–2 · weak = 0, where the signal fired on our read alone.
// How we know
We read 629 hiring feeds across 22 ATS platforms every day — direct from the applicant tracking systems themselves, not scraped off a job board that is already stale. That is 649 gaming companies tracked, covering open roles across ~550 gaming companies with live roles right now.
Daily posting snapshots and requisition-ID dedup mean a repost or a still-listed evergreen req does not count as new. When a ramp signal fires for a studio, a human opens the roles and checks them before that studio reaches your brief — and every number in a brief traces back to a source link you can check in five minutes.
