Do you have experience playing DnD? If so, you may be wondering how to put that on your resume. After all, it’s a great skill to list! In this blog post, we will discuss how to add DnD to your resume and how it can help you stand out from the competition. We’ll also provide some tips for how to make the most of your experience playing DnD. So whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player, read on for advice on how to showcase your skills!
Hobbies and Interests Section
Some resumes include a “Hobbies and Interests” section. Although not a necessary addition, this can help candidates stand out (which is important if you’re applying to jobs in a competitive field). After meeting the necessary qualifications, candidates often succeed when there is something that the interviewer remembers about them.
Skills Section
One way to list DnD on your resume is to include it under the “Skills” section. This is a great way to show employers that you have experience with teamwork, strategy, and problem-solving. You can also mention how DnD has helped you develop important communication skills.
If you have any tournament wins or have been the DM for a campaign, be sure to list those as well because starting a DnD campaign is difficult in its own right!
Experience Section
Another way to include DnD on your resume is to write about it in the “Experience” section. If you don’t have any paid experience, that’s okay! You can still write about how you’ve helped run campaigns or how you’ve been a part of DnD club meetings. Speaking of writing, it makes sense to bring up how you write a D&D character backstory.
This is a great way to show that you’re passionate about the game and that you have leadership experience.
Final Tips
One other thing to consider is the fact that some jobs would entertain DnD experience more than others. In particular, anything in the entertainment space. For example, if you’re applying to be a radio host, it’s easy to bring up the fact that you entertained a group of people for years as the DM of a DnD campaign.
