Festivals need to fill seasonal staff, internship and volunteer positions every year! It becomes tireseome. Why spend so much of your and your festival's time, money and resources posting to numerous websites?
There are two things that generally happen when you post on career websites. Your post gets lost among all the other jobs in finance, medical, retail, etc. Your post remains inactive and doesn't gererate much attention. The other situation that occurs is you receive candid...
