Free Mandy, maybe.
May 21, 2022

Although I've had my gripe with Mandy.com when the service was free, then changed to a subscription format, I realized why they did it. This assures everyone they are getting what they pay for, and not random job listings. Worth the extra bucks to filter the quality jobs from the not so much.

mandy.com is a fantastic platform for actors looking for auditions across the UK. It is very user friendly and easy to update your CV and profile information. There are a huge number of paid opportunities posted on a daily basis so there's a high likelihood something will be the right fit you everyone.

Think it's a scam
July 11, 2018

Think it's a scam. Why would a company only choose to have their listings with Mandy which is a paid service and means that very few crew members will sign up for. Companies want to have access to as many people as possible. They can easily advertise on Craigslist, Indeed, which doesn't charge people to view submissions. Meaning they will get a lot more candidates than Mandy. The listings also seem fake. No one I know has every gotten a job from paying the subscription. I have tons of experience and have never received even an interview request. Ever. There's no way to even know the company's name that's advertising or if it even exists (it doesn't) because they don't give out the company's name. Legitimate companies advertise the name of their company because they want to get the best candidates.

Hi Jess,

Thanks for your feedback, and sorry to hear you feel that way.

We work hard to build relationships with employers, in order to offer our candidates a more tailored jobseeking experience.

In response to your questions...

Once you are on a premium plan, you will be able to see the employers' names.

There are many reasons why employers chose to list with us - but principally, as ours is a professional community, we offer a greater quality of applicant than open platforms such as Craigslist.

Please contact us at emails@mandy.com if you require further support.

Best wishes,

Amelia

I have been a member for 4 years and once every 3 months there's a suitable film crew job, so I pay for a months membership, so I can apply along with another 100+ applicants. Once I did get a job! Mandy need to reduce their prices it feels like such a scam preying on people that are searching for work. There used to be 30% off codes on the net if you searched around that just about made it acceptable if there was a job along with 2 almost suitable jobs you could apply for that month, but they don't seem to exist any more.

Hi Jay, I'm sorry to hear that you feel this way. I do know where you are coming from as it is a very competitive industry. We do not have any general discounts running at the moment I'm afraid, but if you are a member of any professional bodies or unions we do sometimes offer a discount via their websites! Please email us at emails@mandy.com if you have any other concerns.

Excellent- really recommend to anyone who has enough money to pay for it annually and wants to get into acting, some really terrific features on there which you can't get anywhere else, but do remember that you only have a months free time unless you earn more or pay. Overall though I would 100% give it a 4.5 to 5 star review.

Great resources
September 9, 2021

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…

I joined Mandy pretty recently but so far it's been convenient to have film and TV opportunities and jobs in one place. I've definitely seen postings there I haven't found elsewhere on the main job sites and even on some of the smaller ones. It's hard to find openings in my city and they have quite a few more than other platforms. It's nice to have a separate place for volunteer posts so you can seek them out or avoid them depending on what you're looking for. So far so good!

Career game changer
June 22, 2019

A lot of my first few acting jobs after graduating from drama school came from casting calls on Mandy. This really helped me to build my portfolio and in turn, i made some amazing contacts and have been approached by professionals wanting to work with me after seeing me in a production that was originally found on Mandy. If your starting out, and want to build those credits, dont hesitate, sign up!

Paid work!
September 9, 2020

Great site for corporate and promotional Paid Voice over work, i get around 5-6 emails a day of available work with my parameters. Only downside (for me) which im not sure Mandy can help with is a lot of the jobs going dont offer a custom audition.
