I feel more connected to the characters in hammer of dawn (in the first few missions) than i felt in the entire LOV campaign. Dumb prophecy's and amon. Cant relate to any of that. Your story is relatable.
The 2 years industrial experience and 1 shipped title would exclude a large number of those talents.
I'm currently going through the job interview process with them and I have no prior experience nor any shipped titles...hell I haven't even released a custom game. If your work is clearly something they believe is good, then they'll give you a shot. There's nothing wrong with applying and failing to even get a call. It shows you where you are at and that you need to get better or that maybe you just applied at a time that your talent wasn't needed for what they wanted. If you truly believe that you could fill the position... then apply. The worst that can happen is that they'll turn you down.
I have applied 3 separate times and failed on the last 2 times to even get a response. This time after taking steps to get better I had applied as a Senior Level Designer at the bequest of their Lead Environmental Artist. Two days later there was an associate position open and I got an email for an interview. You never know what will happen, put yourself out there and see what happens. Even if I fail this round again, I'll be that much closer to knowing where I need to be.
Edit: Also, NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK...knowing people in the right places can make worlds of a difference.
They have to interview people for advertised positions. Just because they do, does not in any way mean you stand a chance at getting the position. It can literally be your interview is nothing more than a box ticking exercise so they can hire someone else, especially if few people apply for a position.

That is not true at all, and I hope no one listens to what you just said.
