Esports Recruitment FAQs

What is esports recruitment?

Esports recruitment is the process of hiring talent for the competitive gaming industry. This includes roles at esports organisations, tournament operators, game publishers, streaming platforms, and gaming companies. Roles range from coaches and analysts to marketing managers and event producers. The industry has grown significantly, creating demand for both specialist recruiters and job platforms.

How do I find esports jobs?

You can find esports jobs through: job search platforms like ours (we aggregate listings from multiple sources), specialist recruitment agencies, company career pages directly, LinkedIn and industry networking, and esports industry events. We recommend using multiple approaches—search job boards for visible opportunities while also networking and considering agencies for senior roles.

Should I use a recruitment agency or apply directly?

Both have advantages. Agencies can access unadvertised roles, advocate for you, and provide interview coaching—but they only represent certain companies. Direct applications give you access to all employers and show initiative. For entry-level roles, job boards and direct applications are often more effective. For senior positions, agencies may have exclusive mandates. Many people use both approaches.

What is EsportsJobs.quest?

We're a job search platform, not a recruitment agency. We aggregate esports and gaming job listings from company career pages, LinkedIn, and other sources into one searchable database. It's completely free for job seekers. We don't charge fees, make placements, or take commissions—we simply help you find and apply to jobs directly with employers.

What skills do esports employers look for?

Common requirements include: industry knowledge (understanding esports culture, games, and ecosystem), relevant experience (even from related fields like sports, events, or media), specific skills for the role (coaching credentials, marketing portfolio, technical abilities), passion for gaming, and professional soft skills. A combination of gaming knowledge and professional capability is valued—portfolio work often matters more than formal qualifications.
