Job posters looking to staff productions with crew members are able to create crew specific roles and use their application manager to easily evaluate applicants.
Creating A Crew Role
When a job poster enters into the post a job workflow, they will be asked to select what type of talent is being sought. Either a single type or a combination of types of talent can be selected. If looking only for crew, then Creative Freelancers & Crew would be selected alone.
You will then be prompted to provide Project Details. Please see below for a sample.
When the time comes to add roles to the notice, you would click on Add Roles at the bottom of the screen. You will then be taken to the following page:
