A UK company that specializes in advertising jobs in esports globally said that the number of opportunities in esports has nearly doubled year over year. According to an analysis of its own data, Hitmarker reported that 11,027 jobs were listed in 2019 compared to 5,896 in 2018. However, nearly 12 percent of those were unpaid. The data for the analysis was taken from 16,923 jobs posted on Hitmarker between Jan. 1, 2918 and Dec. 31, 2019. Among all countries, the United States led the way, hosting 56 percent of job openings in 2019. The bulk of those — two-thirds or 63 percent — of U.S. jobs were located in California, totaling 3,943 for the year.
