I’m a third year Administration and Commercial Studies Student at a well known Canadian University (equivalent to U.S. colleges). I played poker as my primary source of income last summer and am starting to apply for positions for the upcoming summer. I cannot decide if I should put poker on my resume. I have no GREAT experience, so i figure this will at least catch their eye. The problem is that poker will be really hit or miss. Some will crumple it up and automatically assume im some degenerate gambler. Others might consider it as im willing to take calculate risk. I guess it will all depend on their knowledge of the game?
Since I do not have anything aside from poker and do not have the normal business connections to get me an interview, would it be so bad to add to my resume? I would label it something along the lines of: (under employment section) "Semi-Professional Poker Player" - engaging in thousands of calculated, long term oriented probability decisions - had to maange my own bankroll and hours blah blah.. Why or why not? If you think its a good idea, any suggestions on how to make playing poker resume friendly? |
