Frequently Asked Questions
What does an esports recruitment agency do?
An esports recruitment agency connects gaming and esports companies with qualified candidates. They handle sourcing, screening, and shortlisting talent for roles like coaches, analysts, marketing managers, and operations staff. Agencies charge employers a fee (typically 15-25% of first-year salary) upon successful placement. Candidates use agencies for free.
Should I use a recruitment agency or apply directly?
Both approaches have merit. Agencies can access unadvertised roles and advocate on your behalf, but direct applications show initiative. For senior roles, agencies often have exclusive mandates. For entry-level positions, direct applications and job boards like ours may be more effective. Many job seekers use both strategies.
What's the difference between gaming and esports recruitment?
Gaming recruitment typically focuses on game development roles (programmers, artists, designers, producers). Esports recruitment focuses on competitive gaming roles (coaches, analysts, team managers, broadcast talent, event staff). Some agencies cover both, while others specialise. The skills and networks differ significantly between the two.
How do I choose the right recruitment agency?
Look for agencies that specialise in your area (esports vs game dev), have a track record with companies you'd want to work for, and communicate well. Check their job listings to see if they work with relevant employers. Read reviews on Glassdoor. A good recruiter will understand your career goals, not just push any role.
