Want to work at sportsbook but...

[caldecalde]

I don't even know where to start applying.
After reading several threads I may find some help in this forum.

I don't have any experience in sportbooks per se,
2 years of experience at HP before quitting.

I just need a job to pay for school and at some extra cash if possible.

My strenghts are English (990/990 in TOEIC)
My short but enriching career at HP left me knowing my abilities in a high pressure work environment.
I know how to work as a team member or in more individualistic settings.
But the skill that really would help me in a sportsbook is that I'm both a fast learner and a self learner.

*****self appraisal ends here*****

Any ideas on where should I start looking?
Any sites that I should be sending my CV too?
Don't worry I won't do the same as that poor guy who posted all of his personal info to start a new thread.
Please PM or public reply, just point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

Why don't you send your resume to pokerstars?

I have heard they pay very good initial salary (like $1300) they let you study, could be promoted in a short period, very stable and growing company, good location, tournaments, free food, they pay a very good Christmas bonus..

There are many reasons why I think that place is a very good option for people with a good English level, let me add that right now sportsbooks hire people without experience but the highest salary I've heard for rookies is around $4 an hour... :>(

Thank you!

Someone from another forum recommended them as well.
I found this:
http://www.pokerstars.com/about/careers/
And the current open opportunities are outside CR.

I'm still sending my resume, just in case.
Any other ideas?
