Games Industry CV Review and Social

Games Industry Professionals, join us for a social mixer and drop in CV and cover letter review kindly hosted by Four Quarters Elephant & Castle

If you've been affected by the layoffs and need advice and support, are currently job seeking, working in a hiring capacity, or just want to socialise and network with others in the industry, please come and join us!

We have quiet spaces for CV reviews, as well as space for networking and arcade consoles

Tickets are free, but please do register so we can better estimate numbers

Four Quarters Elephant has over 20 original arcade and pinball machines, with an extensive list of nostalgic retro games. Goldeneye 007, anyone?

Food, soft drinks and a range of local beers and cocktails will be available to purchase on the night

About me!

I'm Kyra Chan and I've been in the games industry for approaching 10 years, in senior leadership, hiring and HR positions. I've got deep knowledge on how it feels to be laid off and the resiliance needed, as well as being on the other side of the hiring table and what employers look for. An advocate for diversity and inclusion, I've sat on Ukie's EDI committee and working group since 2020 and achieved a mean gender pay gap of 0% at my previous studio
