Freelancers face numerous challenges regarding being easily recruited for work opportunities within the rapidly growing and competitive esports industry. FAE (“For Anything Esports”) is an all-in-one resource that highlights esports freelancers by giving them a dedicated platform to showcase their expertise, experience, and availability. FAE also caters to esports organizations by providing a directory consisting of unique freelancing roles for candidates to be easily identifiable and recruited for opportunities. By providing our platform to both freelancers and organizations, we are minimizing the issues that are commonly found in the esports industry, such as unfair compensation and lack of marketability.
