If you have worked in esports events, partnerships or content, do traditional sport employers generally view that as relevant industry experience?
SPMA provides a practical starting answer. Add first-hand experience, a different perspective or a useful example from the industry.
Yes, especially on the business side. Events, content, partnerships, community management, sales and digital fan engagement can transfer well when you explain the underlying responsibility rather than relying on the esports label. Traditional sport employers may be especially interested in digital-native audience experience, but you still need to learn their specific fans, calendar and commercial model. Show what you achieved, the scale you worked at and how the skill applies. The closer the function is between the two industries, the easier the transition is to explain.
