Is there a place where online casinos post their jobs?
 
I am looking to become a marketer for an online casino. I'd like a change (currently I'm the head marketer for an IT consulting firm), like to get in on this emerging industry, and I have marketing ideas for online casinos that I've yet to see any online casino implement. However, I have yet to find an online job site that lists jobs with online casinos. And the vast majority of online casinos don't even have an employment page. What I hoping is that someone here might know of such a job site and/or a forum that caters to the online gambling industry.

Unfortunately, I have been told that jobs with online casinos tend to go to friends and family. This being a mark of an emerging industry and thus is good as far as I'm concerned since I want to get involved in an emerging industry. The downside of this is that it makes it that much harder to get a foot in the door.

What I have done is send my resume unsolicited to a number of online casinos and asking if they have a marketing job opening. The result of this effort has been one casino being interested. Last week, I had the first telelphone interview with them and am waiting for a conference calls with both partners. However, there is no guarantee I'll land the job so I would want to continue looking and contacting to generate more job leads.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

This made me chuckle.

I sent in my resume to bodog.com. I got a reply back saying that they only consider those with work permits in Costa Rica. Looking up how to get one, it says foreigners need a business that wants to hire them. As bodog.com mandates it, it is a Catch-22. *laugh* Oh well. Their stupidity. Their loss.

I know a lot of affiliate companies do business in Montreal, as well as Vancouver, Canada. Also, you may want to check out:

They are both casino affiliate forums where the affiliate mangers post in the forums. They are good networking and information sources I assume.

Thanks for the information. I'll check those two forums out.
