• Proficient with recording gear and techniques.
• Solid knowledge of PC and console audio hardware.
• Strong knowledge and understanding of game audio techniques and audio production fundamentals.

A good friend of mine has been interning there quite a bit lately, I hope he gets a shot at this.

More often then not these requirements are a wish list. If they don't find anyone with all of the listed skills they will hire the next best one. Even if they do find one he might be a jerk and they will again hire the next best one. If you want the job and you think you can do it then apply. It doesn't cost you anything.

That's how I got every single job offer ever (programming jobs). I never had every skill (or as much experience) they said they need.
 
If one of you guys gets the job and fucks up the sound of the next Battlefield game, I'll fucking kill you :lol:

Seriously though, that looks like a great job.. shame I have no experience with videogame audio stuff whatsoever
 
Speaking of Battlefield sound, Battlefield 3 needs some serious fucking work. I play with headphones and compared to other games it's very difficult to localize sound unless your far away from the action. Also, shit just randomly drops out, like the ambient sound or the sound of vehicles, it fucking sucks.
