Hi-

I really really really want to work at chess.com, I think it would be amazing to work someplace where I have so much passion already. If anyone has/is currently working at chess.com can you give me any insight into how you got hired? I put in an application, but have not heard anything back.

Thanks!

Well... generally speaking that's a no.

All you can do is send this in and if/when your skills are needed, you'll be contacted.

Find out what skills they require and if you haven’t got them, acquire them.

 While I admire the OP's enthusiasm & passion, you do realize that unless you live close to the office, you'd probably be working from home. Can I assume your a guitarist...shredthefrets.?

@RonaldJosephCote, all of chess.com jobs are remote- they do yearly meetups but everyone works from home and communicates through different platforms. And yes, I do play the guitar happy.png

Then CrystalMoon is the one you want to speak to....she plays guitar also.happy.png   I don't think she plays guitar FOR Chess.com. I once asked Erik if I could work for chess.com. I told him I'd pay him to clean the ashtrays.    That lasted about 40 mins.tear.png
