— Well, It Happened Again.
I'm going on almost a year of this. Hundreds of apps, interviewing only to get to that point and be the runner up who wasn't picked or be totally ghosted before that point. I'm trying so hard to be positive, but this is rough. I'm tired."
Meet Emily Leonick, former Associate Producer, Narrative at Maxis Studios. At Maxis Studios, Emily led content creation for The Sims 4, managed teams, oversaw localization, and maintained documentation. She also developed a style guide and served as the "Lore Expert."
She was impacted by the layoffs in May 2023 and has been open to work since then.
"I really hate to say it, but I realized today it's been nearly 7 months since I got laid off. So, I'm hoping that y'all might be able to help me find something new! I’m hoping for a new Production or Game Writing role. Maybe you know someone who's planning to hire after the holidays are over or you're even that person," Emily wrote in her 3-month-old open-to-work post.
