Esports Recruiting FAQs

What is esports recruiting?+
Esports recruiting is the process of finding and hiring talent for esports organisations, gaming companies, and related businesses. This includes recruiting for competitive roles (players, coaches), operational roles (managers, marketing), and support functions. Specialist esports recruiters understand the industry, have networks within gaming, and can identify candidates with genuine passion and relevant experience.
How does esports recruiting differ from regular recruitment?+
Esports recruiting requires deep industry knowledge that general recruiters lack. We understand game-specific terminology, the difference between roles at teams vs publishers vs tournament operators, and can assess genuine gaming passion vs. surface-level interest. Our networks include passive candidates active in gaming communities who aren't on LinkedIn. We also understand unique aspects like player contracts, streaming rights, and esports org structures.
What roles do esports recruiters fill?+
Esports recruiters fill diverse roles: Competitive (players, coaches, analysts), Content (creators, producers, editors), Broadcast (casters, hosts, production), Operations (GMs, HR, finance), Marketing (partnerships, brand, events), and Technical (IT, platform ops). We cover esports organisations, tournament operators, game publishers, streaming platforms, gaming hardware companies, and esports agencies.
How much do esports recruiting services cost?+
For employers: Typical fees are 15-25% of first-year salary, paid on successful placement. Senior roles and retained searches may be higher. For candidates: Our services are completely free. We're paid by employers, never candidates. If any recruiter asks you to pay, that's a red flag.
How long does esports recruiting take?+
Timelines vary by role: Junior positions typically 4-6 weeks, mid-level specialists 6-8 weeks, and senior/executive roles 8-12 weeks. Highly specialised roles (specific game expertise, rare skill combinations) may take longer. We provide regular updates throughout the process and can expedite for urgent hires.
Do I need esports experience to be recruited?+
Not always. While some roles require deep esports knowledge, many positions value transferable skills from adjacent industries. Marketing professionals, event managers, finance specialists, and operations experts from traditional sports, entertainment, or tech can transition into esports. We help candidates position their existing experience for gaming roles.
