I'm gonna try to make this short.
A while back I was issued a research paper assignment from my English teacher.I decided to do it on Video Game developers and how a student, such as myself could reach a position as a video game developer.
Since the one I know crapped out on me, I was hoping one of y'alls could do the interview.
I'll just copy/paste the old one here really quick.
I'd appreciate any help I can get! The sooner the better, seeing as my interview was due yesterday.

Hello there lucky individual! You have won a chance to help me with my research project! Hooray!
Anyway, I'm hoping you can help me with my researc project by answering a few questions about your job in the gaming industry!
You can answer these questions stirctley from your own position's point of view, or as a game developer in general.
Anyway, I'd like to thank you again for this oppourtunity!
1) What is it, exactly, that you do for this company, and how does it contribute to the game in its entirety.
2) Where did you go to school (college) and what did you study during your time there?
3) How difficult is it to get into this industry, and what kind of experience (and education) do you need to posess to get in?
4) Did you ever take an internship? If so, where? For how long?
5) When did you first know that you wanted to make games, and how long have you been playing video games in general?
6) Would you say it is getting easier or harder to get into the video game industry than it was when you were first employed in this feild?
7) In your job, how flexible (or unflexible) is your schedual and how demanding are the deadlines?
8) With the recession happening, how would you say that the gaming industry as a whole will hold up in the coming years, and how will it change?
9) At this point in your career, looking back, is there anything you would change in order to prepare yourself more for this feild?
