Film x TV Job Round-Up! 12/18/2024

Highlights: Netflix, Hulu, Searchlight, Amazon and some good execs are still looking for assistants!

The winter break is almost upon us, folks!

A pretty decent batch of open opps here!! Apply, apply, apply and then we are OFF for two weeks. Enjoy it, spend time with your friends, family. Drink, laugh, play board games, run from the cops, whatever it is you wanna do! Get inspired, write at weird hours, if it fills your cup and I’ll see you all back here in 2025…. besides my other usual posts HEHE.

As always - this is a round up of the jobs I saw the past week that looked the most promising, exciting, very few well-paid, some great companies and some shared by friends! PSA - reminder - ‘promising’ sadly doesn’t mean ‘well-paid’ because this is Hollywood where capitalism reigns supreme and that means extorting you for cheap labor because of your dreams, baby! Below are all the sites I use to sift through and find the jobs I think are worthwhile x quality or with promising companies.

Business Focused:

• LinkedIn (Best to go company by company)

• UTA Job List (Monthly)

• Stage 32 (Free to sign up but it often seems to have more people offering their services or “programs”)

• Tracking Board (7 day free trial and $78 after that)

• Entertainment Jobs on Jooble (all over the country!)

• Entertainment Careers (semi-free but then paid for some “bigger jobs”)

More Prod Focused:

• Production Hub

• Staff Me Up

• Showbiz Jobs

• Facebook groups are also an amazing option just make sure to vet people!

“Salaries” are always included here because I don’t want you to click any further if that amount won’t work for you and for full transparency when I can because i KNOW that these are WHACK wages/salaries. I also have a post coming out about my favorite *survival or thrival*** jobs. But as I find better ones, I’ll make sure to highlight those at the TOP of the lists! Currently they are going to be MOSTLY LA and categorized by:

1. Internships

2. Assistants & Entry

3. Marketing & PR

4. Dev/Exec Level

5. Production & Other

If there’s more specific niches you’re looking for, let me know and I’ll do some digging and ask around to my contacts! To me, the following jobs are from quality (as quality as they can be), vetted companies and opps that can give you a good birds eye-view of that sector of the industry and/or allow you to meet people who can guide you.

Pro-tip! FIND YOUR REFERRALS Make sure with any of these jobs and really for any place you dream of working… always be on the lookout and research to see if you have connections at the company - maybe you grew up in the same town or city as someone who works there, you went to the same high school, you’re both college alumni of University of Missouri, whatever! Try to start networking with those people today. Ask them for a 10 minute intro chat, buy them a coffee, just connect on LinkedIn with a thoughtful message! So, when the perfect job comes along you can ask about a referral to up your chances.
