Episode Description:
In this episode Expa's chairperson Wanda O Rly (Valtteri Lahti) and Jamk's game production studies (BIT) Senior Lecturer Mika Karhulahti discuss together with Miika Anundi, Junior Developer at Veikkaus Game Studio.

In the sixth episode of the DGC podcast we finally bring a junior developer's point of view to game industry employment and career building. The self-taught developer Miika Anundi, who is a teacher by education and an indie developer, game entrepreneur and project manager by previous experience explains how he has made his way to the game industry. With Wanda's lead Miika and Mika discuss Miika's skillbase and his daily work at Veikkaus and try to identify how these experiences match with readiness the Jamk games education program aims to give its students.
