"My 20-year tenure is no longer good enough": GTA 5, Red Dead Redemption veteran says getting a job is a "toss of coin" right now when everyone is as experienced as you are

A former GTA veteran has commented on how rough it is to get work in the games industry in its current state.

In an in-depth interview with Reece “Kiwi Talkz” Reilly, former Rockstar Games audio engineer Rob Carr – who worked on the likes of GTA 5, La Noire and Red Dead Redemption during his tenure at the company – spoke about the current state of the games industry where layoffs and studio closures are becoming a common occurrence. “It’s not nice to lose your job at any particular point” Carr says, “but, you know, when when there’s literally thousands of people in the exact same situation, you find yourself in a position where it’s no longer like – my 20-year tenure is no longer good enough for me to get a job whereas 5 years ago it was.”
