So I hired someone because they play destiny.
A little bit ago I was doing some recruiting and I asked them what they do for fun. The candidate said they also play video games...I got excited and asked him if he plays destiny and he said yes. So we talked about the game and the new expansion for about 30 minutes and I just had to hire him. Anyone else have a story like that or met a fellow player in real life?
Edit: He was qualified but it's what separated him from the rest.
Edit 2: Since a lot of people do not know how the hiring process goes I'll clarify. You get applications in for a job that is available. Someone goes through all the email and paper applications and based on job history and experience decides who to interview. Then the hiring manager picks the person that is best for the job, will be dependable, and will mesh with the current team. Not everyone can get hired.

I work at a job where ~90% of the people here play video games or work on games as side projects. Pretty funny because its almost a company holiday when a major release drops.

One of my now rl good friends that I know I met at work. One day we started talking about games, and I brought up Destiny. And he knew everything. Even the struggle for gally, loot cave, etc. He looked up to me as a god. He had nothing compared to me in year 1.

Well, essentially good move. They will definitely not mind repetitive tasks, nor will they mind being told to stay later. You do it right, you can get them to pay you to work for you I mean Bungie does that

Only part that sucks would be if the boss was a sponge. Hey invite me to clan. Hey invite to raid! Hey invite to quest! Oh you gonna kick me because we failed. No problem. Don't bother coming to work ever again. Btw Joe you have a paid dayoff. Thanks boss. But one thing? What's that. Finish the raid on all 3 of my toons!!
