⚡️ Hiring Trends in iGaming 2026: How the Game Is Changing More and more people want the «Works at Ebaka Games» line on their LinkedIn — CVs are rolling in non-stop. The attention is flattering — we’ve achieved what we aimed for. But as the industry grows and offers more long-term stability, candidates are getting increasingly creative in their ways to land an offer. Here are three true stories from the first two months of 2026. ▪️ The Phantom QA The candidate aced the entire interview process, got the offer, and… on the first day, a different person showed up on the intro call. Apparently, the plan was to hope no one at Ebaka would notice the switch. A clear case of an interview proxy — something more common in big tech, but iGaming is starting to mirror its older sibling. ▪️The Seasoned «Wolf» A top-tier UI & UX designer with an impressive portfolio and equally impressive salary expectations — gets the offer. But the delivered results? Far from what was promised. The pattern is classic: well-packaged experience, mass applications to hundreds of companies, and interview success built on knowledge recycled from previous rounds. Not good or bad — until it starts affecting actual work quality. In this case, it did. ▪️Hire Me If You Can Imagine the perfect candidate: years of experience, dozens of deals with major operators, flawless interviews. The offer went out faster than a «You’re hired!» text. But days later, something felt off. We checked direct references — and discovered the candidate had impersonated someone else, taking credit for their achievements. These cases paint a clear picture: iGaming industry and Ebaka Games in particular is becoming increasingly attractive. Both for true professionals (as reflected in the flood of strong CVs) and for those trying every possible trick to secure an offer at any cost. ▶️ Want to join the studio and proudly say you work at Ebaka?
