ESports Information and resources for players who are stuck

As someone who has worked as the Social Media Manager of a few esports organizations (previously Wind and Rain, Inception Esports, and R3PREZ3NT Esports) there are more opportunities in the esports industry than the average person realizes, but most esports
jobs aren't for players. There are lots of opportunities if you're interested in Marketing, Team Management, or Video Editing.

Jobs like this can be found on Hitmarker Jobs and Rekt Jobs. But you'll find that there are just as many volunteer positions for this as there are paid opportunities as many organizations are startups and there are lots of people out there just trying to gain
some experience.

That said, here are some tips I'd give an everyday player hoping to go pro.

- You need to pick one game and focus on it.

- Play the game like it's your full-time job, but also study it like it's your full-time job too.

- Record your game footage to analyze. Save, edit and share your best footage as often as you are able.

- Your footage will essentially be your portfolio.

- Consider what kind of organization is right for you.

- Some are looking for team players others are more like stream teams and are broadcaster oriented.

- Twitter is a great resource for finding opportunities search "esports looking for" or " [the title of the game you play] looking for" and start applying inquiring about opportunities, many of them.

I think that is a superb idea, there should be more help for gamers who are starting out , and those who are a bit stuck.👌

I think there are many ways to access the esport world and I also think that only a small percentage of people can make a living out of esports. The problem is that it has become a business so it requires investments that not everyone is ready to make
and this makes it even more difficult since there are a lot of players and not enough esport teams.

It'd be good if there was some sort of clearly outlined process to getting there, but I think at the end of the day, if you are good enough, you will get noticed, streaming and/or making youtube videos is a way that could get you noticed more easily too.

But ultimately, I think it's one of those things that's hard to find out the "how to" of since the successful people probably aren't exactly going to give away the secrets, you could always document your process.

I think with such things it will ultimately come down to your own perseverance and hard work.

Sure, there could be more information and advice available but it will always be the gamers hard work that determines it.
