Email: this is vital, as it is a means for both us and employers to contact you. You also will receive regular e-mails informing you of appropriate job postings, and a weekly Here's Looking at You Kid email letting you know which companies have viewed your resume. Please ensure your email address is correctly entered as it is our main means of contacting you. Should you change your e-mail address change please change it in your online resume.
login and password: choose your own - it can be anything! You can change
them whenever you want by deleting your current choice and typing in
something new. The login and password are case sensitive and must have more than 5 characters
Broadcast Credits: The colored diamonds stand for Broadcast Credits, 1/2 hour, 1 hour and feature length. They are a quick guide to your qualifications and employers find this tool very useful when searching. Please only use if applicable!
Address: This is confidential and does not appear on your resume. It is simply
for our internal records.
Phone numbers: In most cases employers will contact you by phone. You can choose whether your contact numbers are visible or hidden.
About Me: this section is for you to promote yourself to employers. You
might wish to emphasize certain career experience, or lay down your intended
career path. Really, its a means for an employer to tell what you have done
and what you are hoping to do, and for you to communicate your objectives.
Credits/Employment History: There is a limit of 4,000 characters (approx.
1.5 sides of letter size) in this field. (You can upload a Word version of your resume
which can be of any length and would include your personalized formatting -
see Help page when youre logged in.) As with the About Me section, you
have free rein over what you write. Here are a couple of suggestions... but
they are by no means absolute, as different people have different
approaches... If you are very experienced and have many credits you might not
wish to go into too much detail about each particular production. If you are
more junior you might wish to write a few sentences on each production -
what it was, what your role involved. If you have no TV & Film credits, put
in your other work experience, and in your About Me section explain how
the skills you have acquired can translate from one industry to the TV &
Film industry. (sample resume)
Specialties: regard these as areas of knowledge rather than areas of
expertise or subjects relating to programme types on which you have worked.
(e.g. you might be
a keen, green-fingered gardener, yet not have experience of gardening
programmes - in which case its fine to list gardening, or you might have
an engineering degree, so could list Engineering.)
Other Specialties: You can type in any other specialties. Employers
can run text searches that pick out these words (e.g. palaeontology,
dentistry).
Programme Types: these are the types of programmes on which you have worked rather than the types of programmes on which you would like to work.
Job Types: You can tick more than one job type, several job types may be applicable
(e.g. Producer, Director, Producer/Director, Writer). Select the job types most suitable to you. You can choose a maximum of four. For junior freelancers we recommend that you tick the main job areas of production you are interested in working.
Work Area: Most employers search the database using a combination of job type and work area, so it is important to check your preferred work area/s in order for production companies to find you.
