Excellent site with loads of potential work coming in each day. A great networking site and loads of information and help for those new to the business. The site has a free trial I think for 1 month. Give it a go what have you got to lose?
I really appreciate the simplicity of the UI but it can definitely use some profile upgrades similar to what LinkedIn has right now to show off previous works. But overall I like how quick and easy it is to find jobs!
Thanks for this great review Chaz! We're so glad we can provide a good service to you! Do feel free to keep in touch via emails@mandy.com if you ever need any support or can think of ways we can improve!
Bearing in mind that COVID has shut down the majority of productions, there are still opportunities for people getting into the acting industry. In my own personal experience, I would say that it's great especially for people starting out and looking to get experience prior to getting onto spotlight.
I would recommend this site!
Hi Benjamin, thanks for this great review! As always, we're on emails@mandy.com if we can help with anything else.
I was pleased to see the professionalism with the casting calls on the Mandy network. It leaves you with great confidence over other, less notorious casting networks. There is a vast array of castings everyday on Mandy to suit all.
Hello Ashley, Thank you for such a lovely review, we do strive to provide a professional space for all industry professionals. Please do keep in touch at emails@mandy.com
Perfect site for getting started as an actor - lots of unpaid work to build your portfolio and skills, and tons of low-paid opportunities for you as well once you're less green. Have been using it for years and love it!
Hi Kat, we're glad we can be here to support you! If we can help further, please get in touch via emails@mandy.com.
A great website to network and find jobs. I use it as an employee looking for work but it's also great for companies looking for staff and help on all sorts of productions. Challenges LinkedIn with looking for work. Great site and would recommend to any newcomers or cemented professionals.
What a lovely review, thank you so much, Harvey, I am pleased you find our platform so easy to network via. Please do get in contact with us at emails@mandy.com if you have any suggestions on how we can improve your experience.
They seem to have a lot of jobs of wildly varying quality, but you cant actually apply for any without being a premium member. So difficult for me to give a valid rating. But this review does give me a weeks worth of premium, so maybe ill update it when i have that access?
Mandy.com is very easy to use so far, you can get free time simply by leaving a review or referring friends. If you're really interested in constant open castings it shouldn't be too costly, actually kind of cheap. Mandy has several listings of different categories, from modeling, singing, to producing jobs and a way for employers to post listings.
We're so pleased to hear this, Jocelyn! If we can help with anything in future please get in touch via emails@mandy.com.
Hello lovely people, if you haven't tried Mandy it's
Absolutely a great modern tool to connect and network with people in the industry.
It is straight forward and gives you notifications on jobs of your selected interest.
You can create your profile and customize it and drive traffic to it.
It is worth giving it a shot. I am still a new member and I will see how it goes.
Hello Semo, What lovely feedback! If you need anything please do keep in contact at emails@mandy.com
Really great site and good way to network with likeminded creatives. Sometimes takes a bit of patience but will be worthwhile in the long run. Good for ALL creatives too - actors, filmmakers, writers etc.
Hi Charles, Thanks for your amazing review! Finding work can be a bit of a slow burner, but remember we are always here to support you and offer advice if needed at emails@mandy.com!
Mandy.com is a great resource for finding jobs whilst trying to make your way in the creative arts industry. Much like Backstage and other similar platforms, Mandy.com is a great place to find multiple listings for jobs and opportunities. Like most of these websites today, there is an option to go Premium and pay for better access to opportunities; providing you with the ability to upload more than one picture on your profile, etc. This is slightly disappointing as I imagine most aspiring actors and creatives are already on a budget for their process, however I expect you'd be hard pressed to find any website doing anything differently. In terms of usefulness as a resource, I'd day that it would be equally as beneficial to find a Facebook Group within your local area listing casting opportunities - as this is 100% free - but Mandy.com is a great second resource for some opportunities further afield.
This website has an interesting format. It seems helpful and well organised, but all the PAID gigs require that you have a PAID membership on their website. They offer you a chance to try the "premium membership" IF you leave a review somewhere. So I guess this is part one of my review so far.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Kenny, our Paid Jobs Boards are part of our Premium service. However, as a standard user, you are able to apply for any of the roles posted to our opportunities boards and are able to Network with others through using your profile! If you have any feedback on how we could improve your experience as you go, please do get in contact at emails@mandy.com
I joined under there regular account and found that it was very easy to use. I am brand new to this industry and to be able to get my feet wet and not be intimidated by hard to use technology makes me more intrigued to give this a shot.
Hi Gil, thank you for this lovely assessment, if you ever need a hand navigating the site do please get in contact at emails@mandy.com
Mandy is an awesome website to find acting gigs for all genres and ages. Even with the standard option you are able to view gigs. I highly recommend using Mandy to help kickstart your acting career… see you on the big screen and best of luck to you all!
Mandy is one of the best casting platforms around. The interface is elegant and easy to navigate and there are a ton of resources for finding agents and other industry professionals. Highly recommended.
Hi Matthew, thanks for taking the time to leave us this great review! It's great to hear you find the site such a great resource. Please get in touch via emails@mandy.com if we can help with anything.
Mandy is a good website for new actors/actresses alike. It is not fully free to use like advertised but it's premium is well worth it! You can make an account for free but not apply for auditions so don't get confused! Premium is only $5.00-$8.00 a month and is a worth while investment to your acting career!
Mandy has shown and proven to be a very useful site for actors. Not just for auditions, but from a business perspective as well. Its show business and knowing the business is a plus. Mandy does a great job with providing with with information to help you along the journey with your career.
Hi David, What a glowing review! Thank you so much, we do appreciate it. If you need anything along the way, as ever, feel free to reach out to us at emails@mandy.com
Mandy.com is a disgrace to the industry. I am in communication with authorities that are willing to shut these criminals down. Blue Compass, the company that owns Mandy, is a terribly unprofessional, sloppy and dishonest company.
Hi Johnny C.,
At Mandy, we work hard to ensure the jobs on our board are compliant with all legislation, and we work closely with organisations, unions and NGOs to work toward the most progressive guidelines. We adhere strictly to the Data Protection Act (England and Wales; 1998) and strive to maintain a platform that provides a professionally enriching experience for all of its users. A lot of care and conversation goes into the work that we do, and I find it personally disheartening that you have been left with a different impression. With this in mind, I would be grateful if you could contact me at emails@mandy.com to explain your concerns and help us to sculpt a resolution.
Kind regards,
Amelia
Using the free system only, there is a good amount of information available. But it requires a membership in order to act from within the site. We'll see if there is value added to that, but it's a little but of a misnomer to go in expecting the support for artists without the financial impact.
Hi Em, Thank you for taking the time to review us. As a standard user, you are able to apply for any of the roles posted to our opportunities boards. Our Paid Jobs Boards are part of our Premium service. We do run free time promotions from time to time though so do keep an eye out! Please do get in contact at emails@mandy.com if we can support you with anything.
Hello guys, Captain can here, I am a new member so i don't have much to write, i am very sure that i am still coming back here to write what my experience is like and for sure that time the review will not base on point but what i have witness and experience with the company. Joseph O. Adebambo
