Recommended: Media-Match.com
Media-Match.com is a site which helps entertainment professionals and those looking to hire them find each other. Job-seekers (both freelance and permanent) can create profiles and can also search the jobs posted to the site, which come directly from the companies doing the search or from other job sites across the internet. Companies can post jobs directly, as indicated above, or search for profiles of people who do what they are looking for someone to do.
This site is not location-specific. As I am writing this, I see jobs posted for Los Angeles, Chicago, DC, San Francisco, Houston, Franklin, TN and many, many others. Positions range from Casting Recruiter (Nebraska) to Production Manager (San Francisco) to Graphics Coordinator (Los Angeles) to Camera Assistant (Paramus, NJ). There is even a posting for a News Anchor (Buffalo, NY).
The bottom line is that if you are a budding (or not-so-budding) crew member, subscribing to Media-Match.com is well worth the ten bucks a month it will cost you. And if you are looking for entertainment professionals, it is also a great place to get the word out and find people who can do the job. (That set doesn’t light itself, does it?)
