What is an eGaming Job?

An eGaming job is simply any job in the online gambling industry. Most people inside this industry use the term 'Gaming' instead of 'Gambling' as it tends to have a more legitimate name. How do you get an eGaming job? Well it isn't easy but you can find some agencies who can act on your behalf and find you an employer but truthfully the most important aspect of any eGaming job is to show you have experience in the online gambling industry.

How can I get eGaming experience?

It is a catch 22 but that doesn't mean you cannot create an opportunity for yourself either. At least become a player and signup to all the casinos, poker rooms, bingo sites and sportsbooks. Then start your own affiliate site. If you don't know words like CPA, Neteller, Moneybookers or Revenue share then you will probably fail all interviews if you get that far. At least do some research and know the industry as much as you can. This can be the stepping stone to getting that elusive eGaming job and becoming part of a growing industry.
