  • Answer:

    With your experience, passion and obvious affinity for interacting with people versus machines, I would say see if you can nail down a sales or marketing position with a game manufacturer or retailer. In this case, you will sell your game knowledge and passion and offer to learn the marketing and sales stuff which is doable. You gotta inventory your transferable skills. Search job boards and gaming company career sites for openings to see what the qualifications are. Also, work your network for people who know people who work in gaming companies as the best way to get a job is through personal referral. Good luck and happy new year! Paraclete Performance
