I like this website, it's easy to use and the content is accessible. You also get emails with casting opportunities which fit your profile! Like most sites, you do need a premium membership to access some features.
Mandy is clear and concise,
A great way to find jobs from commercials, to voicework and film.
I would always recommend it to actors and even beginner's in the industry.
What a lovely recommendation Oyinka, thank you very much! If you need anything along the way please do get in touch with us via [email protected].
The mandy network is a good place to find work. It has a lot of opportunities for people looking for film work. You can also network with other people looking for crew work.

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?
Thank you for your kind words and lovely review Andy! If you need anything please do get in touch with us via [email protected].
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.

I have been a member since 2017, and have received only one job. It was a great gig, so no complaints there. My biggest issue is that they pretty much force you to pay for premium to get be able to apply for most paying/serious jobs. It's hard to justify paying if I am not certain I will be able to get consistent work. Would love to pay per month of I could guarantee I could get at least one job per month.

As a working actor, I rely on Mandy.com to find a lot of great paid and unpaid opportunities. It allows me to expand my acting network and see what is going on in the Toronto acting world. It is an invaluable resource for anyone in acting or even those who want to give it a try. I strongly recommend Mandy.com and there are often free one month trials so you can check it out.

Im new to acting and i have already lost some money with some agencies claiming that they will get me enough jobs. But when i found mandy website, i registered for free and so far with a free account, i have managed to get 1 gig and few auditions. THis is incredible. I have never got a single audition yet with modelling agencies. Im soon gonna become a paid member and see whats in store. Thanks Mandy.

Fantastic company and is also highly recommended on many fb acting groups. I am yet to find work for my daughter however there seems to be a lot of job opportunities for her.

Mandy offers valuable organization tools to prepare a profile that allows you to be a hireable asset (if you've got the talent)! I look forward to working through this service going forward
I'm so glad you have gotten so much out of our service Jonathan! Remember we are always available at [email protected] if you need help!
Excellent way to start networking with other creatives in the media industry. However, I do not think it's a service that I'd pay £20/month for as jobs aren't always available.
Great website though.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Manu! Our team is hard at work making sure that we have as many opportunities available to our members at every time of year! If you can think of any further ways you would like us to improve please do get in contact at [email protected]
Helpful in learning how these kinds of sites work. More listings for acting than VO and apparently you are supposed to pay premium for EACH profile. Will not let me apply for extra work on acting frofile without paying again, so I am writing this review.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, Lisa! Each of our profiles covers a different sector of the industry and thus does come with its own premium membership. If you can think any ways you would like us to improve please do get in contact at [email protected]
It's really helpful to have an online presence you can send to prospective employers, and there's a decent range of job opportunities on there too.
Hi Rosie, thank you so much for the review! I'm glad we could be of help, If you can think any ways you would like us to improve please do get in contact at [email protected]

Answer: Hi Chloe, Apologies for the delay in reply. You can indeed! Your membership will simply revert to a Standard membership which does not block employers from contacting you, nor does it affect existing applications. Please contact us at [email protected] if we can support you with anything else. Kind Regards, Roz - Mandy Customer Service Lead
Answer: I paid the subscription fee for a year, mainly so I can get speaking parts on any kind of production. I don't even care if they're mostly student productions, as I get film footage from them, which is very usable. However, if you're thinking of paying the subscription fee to get paid work, I would advise against it. You will not get much paid work through Mandy. If you want paid work, you're better off getting an office job that will pay far more than the NMW that's offered by most productions. I can't wait to get my necessary named speaking roles so I can join Spotlight!
Answer: Hi Paula, Thank you for taking the time to contact us. The Mandy Network is a platform where you can connect to other professionals in the industry to advance your career. As we are not a direct casting director or agency, we do not select who is successful for any role posted with us. We do indeed have a large number of users in both the US and the UK, but we do have our international region for members from all over the world! I hope this helps. Please do reach out to us at [email protected] if we can support you with anything else.
Answer: Hi Julia, Thanks for getting in touch. There are 2 sorts of Job-related emails we will send you. Our Daily/Weekly Opportunities round ups are not tailored to your profile, however, you can turn these off or change their frequency via your Profile settings. Your Job Alert emails, on the other hand, are tailored to your profile and are sent out as soon as the job is posted. If you are looking to better tailor your Job Alerts, please go to your 'About me/Skills' section and update the 'Interested in' and 'Experienced in' section so that we have the information necessary to send you the best jobs for you. If we can help further, please reach out to us via [email protected].
Answer: Hello Gary, thank you for your question. It is free to post a job with us, though we have premium options available for recruiters wishing to give their job post a little boost. If you would like to find out more please contact [email protected]
Answer: In other words no. It is NOT free for employers? They charge both employers and crew but guarantee nothing to the person's looking for work.
Answer: Hi Anna, thanks for your question, we'll be happy to help. Please refer to the status indicator when looking at Jobs > Applications, as this will give further information as to whether an application has been viewed or shortlisted.
