Hello-I'm a voice over talent in the U.S. I've been on Mandy for 18 months now. I have not gotten any jobs and was wondering if anyone knows, on average, how many voice over talent are potentially applying for any one job. When I get an email from Mandy of a job match, I apply to most of them, although some are not even close to what I have on my profile, such a Spanish speaking male, (I'm a white female). What are the odds of having my audition heard by anybody? It's hard to believe, given my success on other platforms, that I haven't gotten one job. I had one false start with someone who wanted IVR but then they said they were not doing it. Another just said thank you for applying but we've chosen someone else. That's it. That is all the communication I have received. I was wondering what other's experience has been and maybe some tips for being heard. Am I in competition with thousands of other VO talent when I submit an audition or is it under 100, for example? I've asked Mandy but they did not have an answer for me. They said they don't know. I'm ready to cancel my subscription with them but thought I'd reach out and see what others have experienced before I do. Thanks so much.
Not sure why it doesn't ask you as it notifies me every time i log in. Keep in mind Mandy is based / focused in UK so will always be better focus on this market and less for American talent.
I haven't received any audition requests in over 2 weeks. Is anyone else experiencing this? Truly makes membership worthless if no auditions are coming my way. I have most VO categories checked in my profile.
Haven't landed a job through auditions here yet in about 2 years, however I did get a job through someone that "found" me on this site from Con Ed NY and used me for an ad on their website which was great! Pretty rare to get a job without auditioning but it happens sometimes. It was only because of that that I renewed another year but may not renew again when it expires this time.
