Question for those in the know, or have experience in this area: What the average base salary for entry level QA Testers? I am sure it is not much, but I would like at least a rough idea if I should pursue an opportunity that may have arisen. |

I assume you mean Game dev. From the 2008 salary survey... Quote: Quality Assurance: testers with less than three years experience make up the largest percentage of this segment – 46%. Quality assurance is the lowest paid of the game development disciplines, averaging $39,571 – almost flat to 2007 – and the majority of Q/A people – 87% - are lesser experienced. The number of female Q/A testers jumped from 6% in 2007 to 14% in 2008. http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_i ... tory=23264 |

In construction I typically see QA/QC entry level around 30k to 40K; double that with 5 to 9 years of experience; triple that with 10 or more years of experience. |

Gaming Industry QA positions do pay on the low side. I work for a software company that creates applications for the EMS Industry and our QA positions start out in the $40k to $50k range. |
