"No past experience"

[Drays]

How do you get out of this "No past experience" loop?

You apply for staff, your application is detailed, you say you are gonna be an amazing staff and you watched videos/asked friends about how to be a staff, what to do etc.. you put it all on your app but you get denied cause no past experience. How do they expect you to get experience when no server will take you because you don't have experience?

It's like needing to buy a BigMac to join the BigMac club but in order to join the BigMac club you gotta buy a BigMac ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

You apply at one smaller server and get your name known. Then you branch from there. If you go ahead and apply at a top serer of course you'll be denied because no expierence so you apply at smaller servers until your expierence grows.

You start small with tiny ass servers with low requirements to be staff. That's how the real world works. I applied at Activision a few years ago and they told me I need experience so I spent a couple years working with indie developers working for free or very little and now I have an interview with Activision.

Not neccesarily, I got staff on Luxor without any. Just say at the end, experience is something important, but you have to start somewhere. Somewhere along those lines, you'll be good.

You my friend, got lucky. Either they were in really bad need or the person recruiting wasn't the brightest bulb in the bunch.
