Author Topic: Shammy wants to be S4 League Quality Assurance Tester. (GOT THE JOB YEAAAAAA  (Read 4088 times)

Exactly what the title says. Ever since talking a bit to the NA GM Coriel, I've been wanting a lot to help out with the game. I feel like anything I can do to help is worth doing, and when I saw the announcement that there were positions available for their QA team, I immediately leaped at the chance to join up with them.
I probably should I have made this thread first so I can get advice, but this is the e-mail I sent them:

Hello! This is the user Shampooh (shampoohyay@gmail.com), and I'm writing to try and apply for a position as an AlaQA tester for the English S4 League. I believe that I meet all of the requirements and even manage to exceed in some; I've got a full knowledge of the game due to having a boyfriend who has been playing the game since beta, and I have several months of experience to draw on for myself as well. I speak English, along with some Spanish and, funnily enough, a little Korean due to my heritage. I am young, only seventeen, but I think that I have the maturity that is necessary for the job. I know for certain that I have plenty of time to spare that I can use productively for this should I get the position, and I'm very good at working with other people and making a team effort an enjoyable experience. I've been wanting to help out with this game since I started playing, and while I may not have previous experience in the field, I can guarantee to you that I have the determination and professionalism necessary to get anything done well and quickly. I hope that you'll consider me for the job, and please contact me at anytime! Once more, you can contact me at the e-mail address shampoohyay@gmail.com, and thanks a lot for giving this a read; I hope you'll consider me!
Much obliged,
Shampooh
I know it's not ~professional~, but I wanted to try and make my enthusiasm and whatnot clear. I think I at least have a fair shot, but what might you guys think?

good one

you should consult me in advance on these things; i feel like they were looking more for something along the lines of a resume than a cute letter
good luck anyway, though
hopefully they won't notice/pay mind to your IP associations with me, because hacks

I was confused as to why Taboob was talking to himself
Then I realized "oh taboob has actual boobs and ragna is ragna okay"

Anyways, good luck.

i think that's the best way to describe this situation that i've seen so far

you're 17 you won't get it. there's tons of enthusiastic 17 year olds, what makes you different?

» There is no specific age limit, but You should convince us, that you are mature enough for the job
i feel like she does have a decent chance at least because she does know a couple of the GM's in-game and they are aware that she's a mature and... well, she's everything she said she is
unprofessional letter aside, i think that makes her stand out a fair bit

What the forget is going on in this thread, I'm so confused.

hmm. yeah i take back what i said.
and i dont think it matters that the letter is "unprofessional" for something like this

good luck :)

Do you get paid or is it like not really a job?

Do you get paid or is it like not really a job?
as i understand it's a volunteer job that can serve as a step towards being a full GM, and if my interrogation of Coriel is reliable, GM's are paid

precisely my thoughts

what is going on i thought taboo was taboo but taboo is ragna while ragna is taboo while taboo is shampoo and shampoo is taboo and not shampoo while taboo is ragna
