Coming soon - you'll be able to decide if you'd like to absorb the payroll fee or if you'd like for talent to absorb the fee. Until then, fees are default charged to the talent.

Authenticity speaks volumes, whether it’s in the information you share, the groups you post in, and the auditions you take part in. All talent and creators must accurately represent themselves, and verification will be suspended should an account be determined fraudulent. This also means applying for castings that make sense for your profile.

Every interaction counts when building a community. Bullying will not be tolerated, and any content that attacks, intimidates, or threatens anyone or is found defamatory, hateful, racist, homophobic, sexist, or just plain inappropriate may result in a ban from the platform.

Jobs should call for real opportunities. Creators can’t charge application fees to candidates or require any kind of outside 3rd party site signup. Talent and creators must accurately represent themselves - we will suspend verification if we determine an account is fraudulent.

We do not allow contingency posts, third-party recruiters, or other companies who build recruiting platforms. Spam (such as mass-messaging or fake posts) is not tolerated and may result in an account suspension. Soliciting services on the site is also prohibited, and as a reminder there are no application fees allowed on the platform, including requiring any type of outside third-party website signup.

Do your part in making the Casting Depot a space that lifts us all. Should you find any behavior that violates any of our guidelines, please reach out to us at hello@castingdepot.com.
