Jesse Flaitz Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I don't know how many people still check mandy given the vast majority or terrible job postings. Saw this one today and figured someone might be interested. http://mandy.com/1/jobs3.cfm?v=55710314&skill=all&terr=usny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Toline Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Not too shabby at all. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Blankenship Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Low, but not insultingly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Feeley Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 The ad's been taken down. Mandy says: This job posting has been removed from display. This is usually because it has received enough applications. But they helpfully list some other "jobs": ==== Vacancy: Production crew Employer: Newyork Talkies Location: NJ Duration: 20 days, starts Sep 10 Payment is on a low paid basis. 1. Cameraman - Challenging script with Night shoot. Prefer to have good experience with shooting thriller movies. 2. Sound Engineer - $300 3. Production Designer - $200 4. Gaffer - $200 5. Assistant Director - $300 6. Production Assistant - $200 7. Makeup Artist - $200 ==== I can't tell if that's $300/day or $300/20days... Not sure I want to know... Anyway, what was the original listing, Jesse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Flaitz Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Haha Jim, that is certainly what the majority of Mandy ads look like. The one I posted was for a single person talking head interview with some b-roll type stuff, $550/10 with basic gear which I assume wouldn't go past boom/lav/mixer, but I'm not sure, I didn't inquire further since I'm booked that week. Looks like they got a couple million responses very quickly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Feeley Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 No worries. Thanks. And yes, the ad you found is (sadly) atypical of Mandys.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Constantin Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 FWIW, I actually once got a pretty good job out of mandy. Four days with a Canadian crew in Gernany. Nice people and decent rate. Cash right at the end - my personal favorite payment method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
