Do any director agents still pair directors with production companies that are looking for new talent?

Unless you’re a well-known commercial director — doesn’t seem like it’s worth it. Am I wrong? Budgets are lower, and it feels like the older model is still around but shrinking.

New production companies with young, hungry executives seem able to navigate the market and undercut the pricing that was standard ten years ago.

Is anyone else feeling this?

How many times has an interviewer no-showed and the recruiter profusely apologizing on their behalf?
Happened to me with Mindtree recruiter, for an IoT leadership position where the interviewing VP chose to no show twice… after which I thanked the recruiter that I was impressed by their book of busi-ness and that it was intimidating to be thinking about the prospect of working for Mindtree… as I’m too incapable for those performance standards… 😂😂

I am interviewing at a Production Studio and it’s going well. The majority of my experience is agency side.

I don’t want to give up my current salary, but I think this job would be such a great fit for me. Advice?
