Can I add this to my CV?

I've recently taken on a voluntary role with a gaming company regarding one of their biggest selling games, helping them with information due to my vast knowledge on the subject (could lead to paid job).

Can I add this to my CV? It's all done online so I wasn't sure..

Thanks!

    Yes definitely!
  • Especially if you intend to apply to something related it sounds like fantastic and relevant experience.

    You need to tailor your CV to the job you are applying for. If you were applying for a job with a games company this would be excellent experience to demonstrate your enthusiasm for the business. If on the other hand you were applying for some role in another business entirely then it could be irrelevant or even counter-productive as you could be pigeon-holed totally unfairly as a nerd who spends their life playing computer games.
