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.

Been using Mandy for years. This is the go to website for finding jobs in the film industry. Always has been the best and most accessible site out there!
I signed up with Mandy and was impressed by the number of job opportunities that they have posted on their website. My only complaint is that the service is incredibly expensive.
Hi Jesse, Thank you for your review. We also offer a free subscription. You can apply to opportunities with it.
If you wish to apply for well-paying jobs, you will need to upgrade to our premium membership.
Please get back in contact at [email protected]
Be Careful of this company they take money from your bank without informing you! Come on its 2021.
It's not worth the money at all. Very disappointed.
Hi Aaron, Thank you for your feedback. All our subscription plans are recurring payments, which we inform you about before signing up. On your payment receipt and in your payment history you are able to see the next billing date.
Please contact us at [email protected] and we can have a look at your account.
Really good organisation for artiste's, voice over's and many many more.
I only have two basic profile's set up on Mandy however all of the email's that come through to me all have job's that I could easily fit into. I currently have a transport issue so it's not so easy doing any remote type work. However, hopefully, that will change next year.
So Mandy, keep doing what you are doing as it is brilliant.
Hi Neil, Thank you for your review! If you ever need anything please do get in contact at [email protected]
After being referred by a friend, I checked out Mandy.com. Very informative site and easy to set up a profile. Recommend to anyone looking to find jobs and opportunities near them!
Thanks for reviewing us so positively Dana! If we can help with anything along the way, please get in contact via [email protected].
Hello,
As a parent setting up a profile for a child it's important to use a site that I can trust with my child's image and information. Mandy also has great resource videos for parents of children interested in getting into show business. As my child is just starting out I would need to return in a few months to give a follow-up of Mandy's services.
Hi Darlene, Thank you for your feedback. We take the safety of children very serious! If you have any questions regarding that please email us at [email protected]. We would be happy if you can give us another review once you used the site for your child.
I love how they continue to send new job alerts that typically I wouldn't see or remember to check! They allow you to custom the alerts based off of the job you're looking for in the industry! Also you can have an active profile for employers to find you!
Thanks for this great recommendation Stephanie, we really appreciate it and it is great to hear you are enjoying our services! If we can help with anything please let us know via [email protected]
Mandy is great to find a job for anything from the film industry but specifically acting. There's is always an opportunity that you can apply or fit your skills and also you don't need and agent like in Spotlight so is a great place to start.
Hi Dragos, Thank you for reviewing us so positively! If there are any other ways you can think of to improve our service, please do get in contact at [email protected].
Overall, good website when you're starting out in the industry. Plenty of opportunities for a wide variety of people. I don't like the search tool because it's not very intuitive and it's not working too well but except that, I can recommend.
Thank you Zuzanna, Thank you for your feedback, we do our best! We will pass on the feedback regarding the search tool to our development team.
If you ever need anything, please do keep in touch at [email protected]
I joined Mandy pretty recently but so far it's been convenient to have film and TV opportunities and jobs in one place
Thank you for the lovely review Jules! Please do get in contact with us at [email protected] if you have any further suggestions on how we can improve your experience!
I love the ease of use for the platform and all the diverse jobs you see listed. Making a profile is super quick and applying for jobs couldn't be easier
Hi Noor-Jahan, it is great to hear you've found using our platform so easy! If you ever need anything please do get in contact at [email protected]

Hi Jagruti, what a lovely review the team and I really do appreciate your kind words! If we can help with anything please let us know via [email protected] we are always happy to hear from you.
Keep deleting my emails specifically sent to me by Directors after I applied for jobs. This is the second time its happened. How am I supposed to get work if they keep deleting their responses.
Hi Ken, Thank you for your feedback, could you please contact us at [email protected] so we can have a look at your account?
After a lot of searching I found Mandy. One of the reasons I love this website is that it has a lot of different skills to chose from and it shows that it's just fucused to those professions
Thanks for this lovely review Ali, we really appreciate it! If we can help with anything else please let us know via [email protected].
Found numerous jobs from Mandy, updated a lot and easy to navigate across the website. Would definitely reccomend
It's lovely to hear you're enjoying our service! If you can think of any ways we could improve our service please do email us at [email protected]
This site has great opportunities and very easy to use…. Signed up and can see how many views and what jobs available
Thank you for the wonderful review Laura! I'm so glad you find our service helpful! If you ever need us please get in contact at [email protected]
There are quite a few opportunities on this website and I think it's good for people starting out when you live in London (or another popular place), but there aren't many opportunities for non-premium members!
Thanks for your review, Ciara! If there's anything we can help with please get in touch via [email protected].
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
Hi Captain, we are glad you joined us! We would be happy if you would review us again once you experienced the website. As always, we're at [email protected] if we can help with anything.
Mandy.com is very useful and helpful if you are looking for job opportunities in theatrical industry. It is good for technical jobs like: stage manager, lighting designer, puppet maker, etc. It has paid and unpaid offers, and it is clear to navigate through the menu. You can create your own dashboard which makes it easy for others to see your experience, as well as for you - to keep track of your work. I truly recommend it!
Hey Ines, we're glad you like us! If we can help with anything in the future please let us know at [email protected].
So far my experience of Mandy has been positive, although I have only used the free version so far. There is a lot of activity, lots of opportunities, although I think the more attractive jobs with better pay rates are listed for those who pay the membership. With that in mind I'm going to try the paid membership and see how I get on, I'll report back.
Thanks for this great recommendation Michael, we really appreciate it. We would be happy to hear how your experience is on the premium membership! If we can help with anything please let us know via [email protected]
Answer: Hi Alicia, That's Great! If you are based in the UK we have a Mandy Kids UK site available for anyone under the age of 18. We offer a 30 day free trial for this site so you can sign up for free and try it out! If you need any help signing up, get in touch with us 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. If you see the status is "Viewed", this means the employer has reviewed your application. If you have any further questions please get in touch at [email protected].
