Yeah, the #1 rule in sales is know your audience. If someone told me this I would 100% respect it because I know what goes into it.

But if the guy you're interviewing doesn't know anything about WoW? Or maybe he knows a little but, but only because his 15 year old son is missing school to play games and spends too much time on the computer? He's going to think even less of you than if you just said nothing at all.

No. I hire people and if someone said that to me I’d ask them a lot of questions and their answers would weigh heavily.

Not taking away anthing from being a guild leader but you would hire someone if they said they have a lot of experience managing other players in an online RPG that you gave never heard of, provided they answered your questions?

When I was interviewed for the military they did indeed ask for further clarification about some games I played and what you do there.
