Hi, I wonder if you can help me find some industry related job websites for audio technicians. So far I have located:

artshub
connections magazine

and Seek (not a theatre website, but sometimes has jobs)

Thanks,

Limey.

Hi, Robyn.

I'm a set and costume designer, painter. I arrived in Sydney 9 months ago.
It's obvious, that it isn't easy to find a job in the art sphere, wherever you are, unless you are really well known all over the world!

You say, that the best thing to do is to knock on the door. This is exactly what I was doing all this time. it is better then sending emails, as very few reply to them.
What happens is that when I go to the theatres and other art related companies I always hear a lot of beautiful words, then million promises, and at the end nothing happens. I just try and try to follow up, but end up often with some sort of funny things, like people that do not answer either phones nor emails. Just carry my heavy portfolio all around with no sense!! I've done one production here in Sydney a month ago and I am really happy about it, however, it'll take continuous knocking on the door for future too I guess. And not because someone is not good enough, but because nobody gives an opportunity or we still don't find the right people, willing to help.

However your advices are really good and worthy to be read!

Regards,
Irma
