Please don't make gaming front and center on resume/CV. You might list it as a hobby at the end of resume, but honestly I wouldn't even do that.
We once hired a college kid who was smart and competent, so we gave him some contract work to fit into his school schedule. Let's just say we knew he was a WoW player, but we didn't think much of it. Like cool hobby, whatever right?
One week later into project, he tells us things got busy at school and he didn't start yet. Fine, next week then.
Two weeks in, he says he got tied up in something else and promised he would for sure work on it this week. Ok, we're flexible, we understand.
Three weeks in, he had yet another excuse, except this time he asked if he could pick up his paycheck.
He had done zero work and wanted us to pay him in advance. Being nice people, we wrote this kid a check for the time he spent with us on the phone and told him don't bother starting project. He was fired. That's when he broke down and told us he was addicted to WoW and spent 7x24 on it. Again, being the stupid nice people we were, we decided to give him second chance if he could change. He promised yes, totally gonna change, you wait!
Two weeks later, the same shit was happening. Excuses, excuses, no work done. He was fired, this time permanently.
So kids, do not list WoW or how you're top 10 in XYZ online game. That level of gaming dedication requiring team scrims 3 days a week for practice often does not translate well to the workplace. Work is much more boring than video games. That's why it's called work. Would you have the same level of enthusiasm for answering phone calls or writing emails? No. The one exception is if you're applying for a job at Valve, Twitch, or a gaming company. For those companies, yes list your gaming skills!
