Turn your passion for cards into a career.

AGS Grading is looking for passionate, dependable people to join our growing team. If you’re into Pokémon, sports cards, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic: The Gathering, or collectibles in general, this is an opportunity to work directly inside the hobby you already love.

We’re hiring entry-level team members across several areas of our card grading operation, including scanning, receiving, slabbing, production, and shipping.

No previous grading experience is required. We will train the right people.

At AGS, we believe strongly in promoting from within. We want team members who are interested in learning the business, developing new skills, taking on more responsibility, and growing with the company.

Whether you're looking for a full-time career in the collectibles industry or a part-time opportunity working around cards and hobby culture, we'd love to hear from you.

Responsibilities

  • Depending on your position and training, responsibilities may include:
  • Carefully handling trading cards and other collectibles
  • Scanning and imaging cards using AGS systems and equipment
  • Receiving, organizing, and processing customer submissions
  • Verifying cards and orders for accuracy
  • Encapsulating and slabbing graded cards
  • Performing quality-control checks on finished slabs
  • Preparing completed orders for shipment
  • Safely packaging valuable collectibles
  • Verifying outgoing shipments for accuracy
  • Maintaining an organized and clean workstation
  • Following AGS handling, security, and production procedures
  • Working efficiently while maintaining a high level of accuracy
  • Collaborating with other members of the AGS team
  • Cross-training in different areas of the grading operation as needed
  • As you gain experience, there may be opportunities to learn additional parts of the grading process and take on greater responsibility within the company.

Requirements

  • This is an entry-level position — previous professional card grading experience is not required.
  • We’re looking for people who:
  • Have an interest in trading cards, sports cards, collectibles, gaming, or hobby culture
  • Have strong attention to detail
  • Can handle valuable collectibles carefully and responsibly
  • Are reliable, punctual, and consistent
  • Can follow detailed processes and instructions

  • Are willing to learn new systems, equipment, and processes
  • Want an opportunity to grow within the company
  • Experience with card shops, collectibles, shipping and fulfillment, warehouse operations, scanning, production, or quality control is a plus — but not required.
  • Most importantly, we're looking for people who care about the hobby and want to grow with AGS.
  • We believe great employees can start anywhere in the company. AGS prioritizes developing our team and promoting from within whenever possible
  • If you love cards, care about details, and want to build a career in the collectibles industry, apply to join AGS Grading.
