23 June 2015: Online gaming companies are evolving into multi-disciplinary technology, marketing and product companies where the demands are for capable and qualified staff both from within and outside the sector, according to the new salary survey released by industry recruitment specialists BettingJobs.

Today’s online gaming businesses are evolving in line with the technology that powers them and this is particularly evident when it comes to the rise of mobile gaming, according to the trends captured by the survey.
