Is this the only place that NTW posts casting calls? I am forever scrolling through and noticing opportunities with deadlines that are long gone.

Hello Mawgaine!
I emailed my CV and head shots last Tuesday and I just wondered if there was any development on getting an audition or if I would hear back anytime soon?

Thanks!
