It’s so sad what has happened to this platform. I have tried to post twice on the forum but my posts were censored and I received direct email responses instead. Mandy was such a great site, I’ve been on it for 10 years. It offered quality ‘bread and butter’ jobs to working actors. The email alerts used to be clear and succinct and often you didn’t need to log onto the site as they told you everything you needed to know. Now the emails are a visual headache, offering a mish-mash of jobs for crew and teachers, with the occasional acting job, but they are often the wrong sex or language. Where have the regular clients gone? I would love to know. I’m holding on in the hope that somehow, someone saves it from this disaster.
Editorial Comment Hi Charlotte, thanks for posting with us. To clarify, where we feel we can better address your concerns via direct communication (and to ensure we can fully investigate any issues), we do so - to ensure we're able to address your concerns as fully as possible - something which communicating via the Forum doesn't always allow.
We're using the feedback we've received to make further changes, particularly regarding the format of job alerts. Regarding the job alerts themselves, in your profile isn't registered to Mandy Theatre Professionals, Mandy Crew, or Mandy Music Professionals, you shouldn't receive a Crew alert. If this is the case, please let us know by email (emails@mandy.com) so that we can investigate this. Our goal as a network is still to ensure we present you with as much opportunity as possible and so this means that you'll start receiving more diverse casting alerts, providing you with even more opportunities to showcase your skills to employers looking for talent. If you receive an alert that isn't matched to your profile gender, please let us know so we can investigate this.
As part of further changes we're looking forward to bringing you more customisation options to allow you to filter both the jobs board and your email alerts as appropriate to you, and we're confident these upcoming changes will allow our users to truly make the most from our network, and we appreciate your patience as we expand our user functionality.
