Like for media related jobs or graphic/web design - where to look, which sites for roles in TO?

Try this site - I've found them to be quite good with regards to info although have discovered some of the jobs are already "covered" by the time they post them (i.e. posting because they legally have to!)

I'm not entirely convinced that jobs posted there are posted by the companies but instead searched out by the team behind the site and posted by them instead, as I have sen many of those jobs in other places. But I could be wrong.

I find craigslist to be invaluable.

They are def not searched out by the team I've worked with teams who post directly on them to great success.

Now if anyone knows where they hide all the producer postings I'd love to know!

Excellent! Good to know.

Now, to your question. Producer of what?

Commercials, corporates, tv, docudramas, etc. I've also done brand work - i.e. pulling together a commercial campaign and a website, etc.

I was a creative producer for several years where we'd come up with the ideas and then produce it and I miss it loads and loads!

....and the networking goes on....

YYZ. How's it going? Is it all doom and gloom in Sweden, or are you OK with visiting before you come "home" permanently?

Yeah, it's OK.Horse needs to lose 200lbs of excess weight. I get a chance to go through my belongings here and prep a "goods to follow list". Have been catching up on stuff that has been on the back burner for the past 6 months and am getting it on track.

Had an interesting conversation from a buddy at home (you know what I mean) who has had a conversation with a headhunter that picked me out of 70 and then turned in to a good friend. They are cooking up all sorts of plans to get me back over.

Shouldn't have downloaded all 7 up to now aired episodes of Flashpoint. That just had me sit wailing "I want to go home" after going through them all in one night.

Family is great and very supportive in my plans. They're all rooting for me to be able to fulfill my goal.

I'm planning to get over before Christmas again or shortly after new years.

And am currently listening to Q107 on line.

Thank god for the internet!

Well when we both get to Toronto we'll have to meet up for some proper networking - I used to use tons of graphic designers and its always good to meet new ones!

When are you hoping to be back "home"?

ASAP really. Permanently, as soon as immigration will let me.

We should hook up. I sometimes get questions "where do I find a producer".

Keep an eye on CTV website. They have a microsite on workopolis with jobs.

CTV here in Vancouver have been difficult - I've been told by people on the inside they regularly post jobs that have been filled internally and only working on the "who you know" thing.

PM me and we can chat about all things media!
