Is there an age limit to this? I have seen many children on televison on Disney Channel on their Disney 365 shows kids doing such jobs. But I am near Nashville, Tennessee and I am under the age of 14. Thanks

The answer is no...

These people are looking for people who not only can identify glitches in programs, but that can also FIX THE GLITCHES...

Sorry.. but you are going to have to find a different way to get you Playstation 3 fix... Good idea though..:)...

Software testing is more than playing software. You find bugs then write them up so you need exact reproducible bugs so you will know when they have been fixed then to start retesting to see if the fix broke something else. It isn't as fun as it looks. People get degrees in software testing.
Also you would need to live near the testing site. I heard there is a Ninto in Issaquah WA.
I worked in software 11 years and never saw any employees under 15 and only one 15 year old.

It's incredibly difficult getting a job as a game tester. You'll have to have excellent speaking and written communication skills. You'll also have to be able to play levels at any difficulty. They will also give people with bachelor degrees the job before some 14 year old kid.

Maybe when you're 22, after you've gone to college, you can give it a shot.
