<h3>First-of-its-kind Online Platform Gondola Launches Gondola Jobs to Connect Creatives and Their Work Directly to Hiring Managers</h3>
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*3fG9c_kncNXLX7zciBeTYA.png"></figure>Gondola today announced <a href="http://gondola.cc/jobs">Gondola Jobs</a>, a new visual tool that connects content creators directly to top organizations that are hiring creative roles.
Gondola Jobs is a part of <a href="http://gondola.cc/">Gondola</a>, a platform in which creatives can take credit for content on social media, access data on their work, cultivate new opportunities by marketing themselves, and find a support system made up of the top creators and brands in the social media space. The new Gondola Jobs system houses all of creators’ content alongside job opportunities, which helps job-seekers showcase their best work through their visual portfolio and hiring managers see the best candidates.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/863/0*5nzv7kHCNXo4qkRW"><figcaption>A screenshot of open positions posted on Gondola Jobs.</figcaption></figure>“By having all creative gigs and full-time job listings in one place on <a href="http://gondola.cc/jobs">Gondola Jobs</a>, we’re moving toward a world where creatives are hired for what they actually produce, not just what their resumes say,” said Jared Kleinstein, founder of Gondola and <a href="http://gondola.cc/freshtapemedia">Fresh Tape Media</a> creator agency, and former head of sports at Vine. “With the content and the opportunities being in the same place, we’ll see more rate and pay transparency and a better hiring process. This, along with future tools to pay creators directly, will in turn help make the creative and sports industries better and more equitable.”
Also introduced in this launch is “Prospects”, a new system that directs people toward a central destination if they’re interested in any sort of work opportunities with a specific company that may or may not have open roles. The system enables creators to specify their potential roles, desired employment type, and showcase examples of their content; companies and hiring managers can then access a database of strong candidates and their work.
Joining Gondola is free, and creators can add their work and start tracking stats for posts by simply adding TikTok, X, YouTube, Instagram or Facebook links into Gondola’s search box. A creator’s online portfolio is visual and available in one place, with a consistent and easy-to-navigate format.

The page shows pinned posts, metrics, and a new “Work For Us” button that potential candidates can use to join Fresh Tape Media’s Prospect list.</figcaption></figure>Notably, Gondola’s platform provides current engagement metrics for each piece of content, such as views, likes, shares and comments across the supported social media platforms and allows aggregation of credits to anyone who worked on a project, including producers, social media managers, photographers, designers, clients, brand partners and more. Projects can also be tagged for improved searchability with data such as locations and specific keywords.
“This is the next step in our journey of supporting the creative content community,” said Kleinstein. “We are so excited to connect the thousands of creators on our platform directly with hiring managers at a variety of esteemed organizations, from major sports leagues and teams to agencies and brands. This is just the beginning.”

Introducing: Gondola Connections AI

<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*jvt7KYKsgUjgU-jtYn8SFg.jpeg"></figure>Coming from small-town Ohio, Alex and his friends would often visit the video rental store. His obsession with movies and film-making eventually led him to watch Casey Neistat’s YouTube videos. Alex was fascinated with how the DIY nature of Casey’s videos contrasted with the production you see in Hollywood movies. While a full production seemed out of his grasp, the organic feel that you see on YouTube made Alex believe making content could be a full-time job.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*0mUHypm-x4qWVkY6E3XasQ.jpeg"></figure>His first step into the creative sports industry came from an internship with the Lake Erie Crushers, an unaffiliated professional baseball team in Avon, Ohio. During his college career at Ohio University, he made videos for the school newspaper and was able to use that footage to put together a reel. He didn’t really know what he was doing, but credits that time behind the camera as a primary factor in becoming the creator he is today. Starting with his time with the Crushers, Alex has been in the industry for five years. He’s also made stops with UConn Athletics and Vanderbilt Women’s Basketball before landing his current job with Ohio State Athletics.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*Dx3ZfGM0FqBhSonKEfwXJA.jpeg"></figure>In an industry built on creativity, inspiration is everything. Alex gets most excited when he finds a creative with a new perspective. The unfortunate reality of working in sports is that everyone’s chasing the same thing. Everyone’s influencing each other, and it can blur together.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*Frj1IautBpMNc57tVYlXaA.jpeg"></figure>While Casey Neistat is still one of Alex’s most significant influences, he has a considerable amount of respect and admiration for Baillie Boggs and David Kaplan, his bosses at UConn. His biggest inspiration comes from his peers in the sports community. With a near-endless list of bookmarks from other creatives in the industry, he also realizes that he needs to look outside of sports, like movies and non-sports photography. His internal motivation to express himself is what drives him to create.
While Alex has worked with many different teams across many sports, he’s especially proud of the work he’s done for the Ohio State Women’s Volleyball team. He created the intro video that plays before team lineups.
<blockquote>“I think that intro video expresses the team’s personality, my creative style, and matches the energy of the awesome crowd that we get in the Covelli Center.”</blockquote>
In addition to his work with women’s volleyball, Alex looks forward to football every Saturday. He believes his team steps up to the occasion every game day.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*xDdMW2_Vt8ty_zqF4XGxMw.jpeg"></figure>Every creative has a defining moment of “I made it.” Alex’s moment came with his internship at UConn. He was thrown into the deep end in his introduction to college athletics. After months of learning on the job, he had the opportunity to shoot at Madison Square Garden. All his hard work had paid off.

Creator Stories: Featuring Alex Penrose

<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*sZSMMyUi8NtAjcuMZixrgQ.jpeg"></figure>An obsession with movies, music, and his mom’s camcorder has become a dream job for director and cinematographer Tanner Vonnahme.
While he’s been a curious creator his whole life, it wasn’t until his internship with HuskerVision at Nebraska that he saw this as a potential career. Growing up in Nebraska, sports were practically a religion for Tanner, especially football. So, the opportunity to join HuskerVision was a no-brainer for him. He was able to gain real-life experience in video work. He still has lots of love for the HuskerVision team and his Husker roots. Including his time there, Tanner has been in the industry for a decade.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*QdcCP4yEYSmR0u__HLf3lg.jpeg"></figure>Tanner has been fortunate enough to have two “I made it” moments as a creator. One for two of his greatest passions: music &amp; sports. As a self-described “music psycho,” Tanner had always wanted to go to Coachella. He just never thought his first time going would be for work. Getting paid to shoot and meet artists would be a dream come true for anyone. His big moment in sports came when he worked on a Super Bowl commercial for the NFL. He met &amp; worked with NFL legends like Brett Favre, Jerry Rice, Barry Sanders, Deion Sanders, Ed Reed, and Larry Fitzgerald.
<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*SmjQgdqcLVFK_122LW2q-w.jpeg"></figure>Tanner is currently working on a creative agency called Ten X Talent with his business partner. He recently put together a reel for the company that pushed his creativity to the limits. Using a combination of ideas he’s been saving on his phone for over a year and a half, and he figured out a way to cohesively combine everything. With over a month of editing, including an attention to detail of sound design he’s never done before, this reel has become a showcase of Tanner and his company’s skill. Tanner’s a firm believer that if you don’t lose sight of the overall mission, you can make anything happen, no matter how long it takes.
<a href="https://gondola.cc/posts/9035340-tenxtalent-instagram">@tenxtalent via Instagram | Gondola</a>
Tanner has been able to turn a hobby into a career at the highest level. What’s next for him? Hopefully, a collab with his favorite artist, Drake (did you know Tanner’s in the top .5% of Drake listeners?).
