DotA in Job Interview?

Hey Holla Forums, I have a question regarding using "e-sports" as an example of team-work in a job interview? For example, do you think it would be wise to say you have experience in supporting your team on DotA? The same could be said for any game really, like leading a team as a tank on WoW or going full tacticool on CS:GO.

What do you think? Pic related, over 60% win rate with this nigga B^)

No you fucking retard.

are you brain damaged?

...

I'd only put it down if you're a 6k mmr player. It actually takes a lot of skill and determination to reach that. Otherwise you're just another casual with a dream that'll never be accomplished and we'll all laugh at you.

Are you fucking stupid?

I'd automatically sack anyone who puts anything related to e-Sports on their CV without looking twice.

This is an amazing level of retard.

No, it's a bad idea, just invent a story about how in highschool you did a school project with some friends and what was your role in it. Or say how you helped your buddy overcome his anxiety or drug problem.

If I was reading someone's CV and they listed esports I would shred it immediately.

Why is it such a social stigma to say you've worked as a team before via "e-sports"? If anything you'd have more experience working in a team than all the other casuals who say "I did a team project one time at school and we passed".

It's not like you have to be super good to say you've got team work experience, though.

Not applicable, teamwork bullshit is overrated and doesn't matter, as long as you're not completely socially dysfunctional you can work in a team. If you put in your CV that you consider playing video games a skill it will immediately be trashed. All employers care about is if you can actually do things.

Because the majority of people are braindead morons. The connect video games to being a loser shut in. Even though you've mastered something that takes a lot of skill and mental thought and are a great team member - you are nothing but a loser to them. Someone who does nothing but go to bars and gets drunk every night would be considered superior to you because he is social and not a loser playing video games all day.

i beg to differ

"I used my communication skills to coordinate as a team to gank a lone hero trying to free farm on top lane."

Healers tend to make better raid leaders as they are often much more aware of what exactly is going wrong in the fight.

That you entertain the notion of playing video games as an example of being qualified for a job shows how unqualified you really are. Doubly so since you use assfaggots as an example. If I were hiring I'd wipe my ass with your application before sending a call back.

Kill yourself op.

I'd just show it around the office and laugh, I mean come on. Nigga didn't have enough bullying in school.

Unless you're on a pro ASSFAGGOTS team, fucking don't. But if you were, why would you be getting a job interview when you're making more money just playing video games?

Though there was that guy who got hired just because he managed a guild in WoW. You're not him and he was lucky his boss knew how tough being a guildmaster can be, so fucking. Don't.

Because it's true
You sound like the exact same type of loser shut in beta cuck faggot that reads nothing but NEET life meme charts and has never worked a day in your life. That drunk probably also has the capacity to seperate his fun bar hopping life with his professional one while also being sociable and dependable for the job at hand. You meanwhile sulk around while others collaborate and work and can't separate business from pleasure by sperging and yammering on about you electronic toys. No wonder you're viewed as the weirdo around the office. That is if you had a job.

Take your indulgent WAAAAAH IM SUCH AN AWKWARD MISUNDERSTOOD NERD WAAAAAH CHAD CUCKED ME faggotry back to >>>/reddit/

You sound like you come here solely to vent your frustrations at others because of your shitty wagecuck job. This thread could have been about anything and you'd still get asspained about it.

You can't use that meme when you made a thread about getting a job.

It was a hypothetical enquiry about using it during an interview, especially because I recall a man getting a job because of his WoW skills. The reaction towards it and others is a bit too extreme, especially for a basket-weaving forum full of autists.

You can fuck off then, retard.

There he is folks. There goes the neet that feels he's above you by being an embodiment of kikery by leeching of your taxes dollars to fund his pathetic existence. He thinks of himself as better than shitskins despite being on welfare. He claims to maximize his time by being a cultured, experienced jack of all trades but is a master if none because he shitposts day in, day put. He claims to know how the workplace operates despite never having filled his name on an application.

Watch him get mad and post memes of that socialist hack Cuck Bukoski.

Do you feel better now?

...

Kill yourself faggot

Millenials need to be gassed.

A hypothetical enquiry for a wagecuck job and then going on to ridicule others for being wagecucks doesn't make it any less hypocritical.
Again, you don't get to use that meme, especially not after seriously suggesting to put 'playing videogames' on your CV to impress your yet-to-be-slaveowner in a grand display of shamelessness and inability to discern what's socially acceptable or not, much like an autist who wears a Naruto headband at school. Your question is one which doesn't even need to be ever asked, you must be truly that dense if you can't figure out the answer for yourself.

That sounds fucking retarded

Just kill yourself and go back to reddit or something. Or lurk more, whatever you want. Just stop typing.

what is going on with that phone receiver

Only if the interviewer is as retarded as you.

Why can't you just make something up that's relevant to the job retard.
No fucking creativity nowadays, as long as you have some kinda answer for the generic HR questions you're fine.

I can already picture the mixed look of confusion and disgust as a sweaty, obese manchild explains to a middle-aged harpy interviewer that one of his crowning achievements in life is being moderately successful in a child's virtual toy.

Yes.
Fuck no.

Delusional, being able to create things and proving it is what matters to an employer, this is especially true in the video game industry. Nobody hires an idea guy.

Only if your job has something to do with vidya. Otherwise its extremely cringy and might fuck you over.

Terrible idea that will likely cost you the opportunity to even get a callback, let alone an interview. You'd literally be better off if you spent your time playing D&D and wrote in that you collaborated and managed a 6-person weekly team-building activity for several years, teaching you to manage schedules, handle interpersonal conflicts, and learn to work with a variety of different personality types all while being highly creative and self-motivated.

...

I wonder how this would change in the future when e-sports become really big and internationally recognized as legit sports. I like your idea, though.

e-sports is the fever dream of the increasingly irrelevant marketing department. They think they can turn ASSFAGGOTS into the superbowl where millions of people will watch and big companies will spend billions to advertise and all those sweet shekels will just flow in endlessly so they never have worry about making stupid video games again..

Not going to happen. Video games aren't sports, and even still, unless you are already on a team and have competed in some of the bigger events, playing vidya competitively for e-sports reasons still makes you no better than the kid who practices basketball in his driveway after school. Not worth putting on your resume.

We're talking decades at least.

Bad idea.

Interesting, I see these videos of Koreans going crazy in mass stadiums screaming support for their teams. This 'game culture' might be a phenomenon for eastern cultures more so than for the west. Still, it's fun thinking about the possibilities games will have as an impact on culture.

There's many different positions in a video game company, and a passion for games is, i'd like to think, a pre-requisite. You do talk about yourself for 30 minutes in an interview, you know.

They made fags and trannies socially acceptable in 10 years.

This thread seems like a fucking cuckchan/reddit

And in the end you don't mention a single thing about your own video game projects and they say "good day" and never call you back. That is if you even get an interview, if there is zero experience in your curriculum they trash it.

Korea is not America or even Europe. The era of the pro SC2 player is pretty much already over anyways. Notice how no one is talking about the Korean e-sports scene anymore? Because it was a fad and a fluke, not a sign of changing times.

dota and league are pretty big in china

Even then, pro starcraft has only ever been about as popular as pro poker is in the US. It has never been on the level of traditional sports.

It gives a bad impression because gamers are known to speak abrasively loudly.

It's also a shower

e-sports are unwatchable if you are not a gamer or play the current game that you are watching. That is why e-sports is solely watched by gamers.

This, most people don't need to fully understand the rules of ball sports (which are pretty simple most of the time, anyone can understand that the ball needs to go in the whole), as athletic feats speak for themselves and are impressive to most people. Whereas if a normal person saw something like the Daigo Reversal, he wouldn't know what the hubbub is all about until somebody explained it to him why making a cartoon character beat another to death is so impressive within the context of the game.

Yes go for it

Fixed, don't lump us in with that faggotry

Well OP didn't say anything about spending the entire interview talking about his gaming habits. There are jobs other than programming, writing or artwork at video game companies.

Your resume would end up in the trash within five minutes. You'd know this if you had any capacity to think whatsoever.
