Mandy Reviews Summary
The company has established a reputation as a valuable resource for freelancers in the media production industry, with many users appreciating the variety of job opportunities and the user-friendly platform. However, there are significant concerns regarding the effectiveness of job placements, as several customers report difficulties in securing paid work despite numerous applications. Additionally, issues with customer service, particularly in terms of accessibility and responsiveness, have been highlighted as major drawbacks. Overall, while the platform offers potential for networking and job discovery, the lack of support and inconsistent job outcomes detract from the user experience.

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!
I'd recommend Mandy, especially for when you're first starting out. Some of the jobs have very low rates but I found very nice ones too. Best of luck!

Mandy's website has a vast number of open casting calls. I highly recommend checking them out. 5 stars!
Hi Robyn, Thanks for this great review,! We are so pleased you think so! If we can support you in any way please let us know via [email protected].
I signed up with Mandy a few months ago. Got my actor (and crew) profiles all situated, including headshots. Then my inbox gets suddenly overloaded with junk "audition gigs" and messages to change my headshots, as "there is something wrong, they are not professional" When they most certainly are! Two different photographers I paid good money to. I click into my profile to see Mandy's notes about "please change your headshots, your profile won't go public until" nonsense. I honestly gave them the benefit. But as Backstage bought them out, I believe I only wasted my valuable time creating my profile. They don't answer when you call for help. And they DO NOT respond to Contact Us.

I have seen postings in Mandy that were nog posted anywhere else, so that's definitely a plus. I like that the website informs me when my profile has been reviewed as well. My only downside is the cost…

Good site to find jobs in the film industry, unfortunately the UK site is way to expensive. If it was half price it would be good.
