Job Listings: When I use the "search contacts" function and select "sound" as the department and press submit, why do only 6 listings appear? Surely a search as vauge as that should turn up thousands of results. What are the necessary terms to find my listing in the search field and how can I make sure my listing is visible to anyone using a generic search like that? In otherwords, what seperates those six people from everyone else when two of them don't even have anything related to sound as their primary qualification? |

General Site Questions: In RE: Job listings Could the regional filter be state specific rather than city specific? A person searching for jobs is more inclined to review a state's worth of listings rather than just one city. Also, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE; Limit the amount of time between a job posting and its expiration. There's nothing more frustrating than a good listing that's months old. A six month theatre job listing is about useful as a condom with a hole. TKU WD |

Bug Reports: I've attempted to log on several times and it keeps not working. I cleared my cache in both Safari AND Firefox(as mentioned in the FAQ. As far as I know I don't have any 3rd party boosters. Especially in Safari as I rarely use that browser). It will allow me to reset my password, then log back in with the reset password. I then change it to a new password as instructed but then it says all pages I try to access after that are restricted and if I try and re log on it just refreshes. I have screen shots of the problem if you'd like to see that it's a legitimate problem and not just someone non-competent. Thanks! ~Peter Regalbuto |
