Erin Posted a Gig Listing and Got 47 Applications in 3 Days
I wanted to test our own job listing system, so I posted a real gig: camera operator needed for a 3-day corporate shoot in Charlotte. Standard rate, full kit required, experience with interview-style setups preferred.
47 applications in 3 days. And these were not random — they were qualified crew members with profiles, ratings, and gear lists I could review before responding to a single one.
How Job Listings Work
When you post a gig listing on Assignment Desk, it appears in the gig finder — our searchable job board visible to all 4,200+ crew members on the platform. Elite members get SMS and email alerts when a new listing matches their market and role. Enhanced members see in-app notifications. Even Basic members can browse and apply.
What You Get as a Client
- Applications with full profiles. Every applicant comes with their complete Assignment Desk profile — ratings, equipment list, reel link, bio, and booking history. No blind resumes.
- Auto-approval for Premium and Enterprise. Your listing goes live immediately without waiting for staff review.
- Enterprise gets auto-highlighted banners. Your listing appears at the top of search results with a visual highlight that makes it impossible to miss.
Monthly Caps by Tier
- Enterprise: Unlimited listings
- Premium: 3 listings per calendar month
- Standard: Job listings not available (upgrade to Premium or Enterprise)
One well-written listing reaching 4,200+ production professionals generates more qualified applications in 3 days than most job boards produce in a month.
Post your first listing or upgrade your tier to unlock job posting.
