### 4/5 — Great networking

*2025-10-31, version 1.7.0*

It’s a really great app for young people and all people who fit any certain demographic and geographic aspects of the course and opportunities. I like that there are different categories which fits your benefit but also the different types of events like events, competitions, placement, jobs, remote classes and many more. The only downside is that I would love if there were more opportunities for those who are under 18 like me with more in ehe placement department and part time jobs.

### 1/5 — Too woke

*2025-10-04, version 1.7.0*

Too many woke questions to set up an account so as the competitions. And I am saying that as a minority.

### 4/5 — Great opportunities

*2025-06-05, version 1.6.5*

I’m working on building a portfolio career, this app is great for finding niche opportunities and contracts! Love it

### 5/5 — Creative Bonus

*2025-06-01, version 1.6.5*

A great app for those starting a career in the entertainment industry, or even seasoned pros. My only gripe is I don’t use it as much as I should

### 4/5 — Really good for creatives

*2025-06-01, version 1.6.5*

I like the navigation of the app, it’s simple and easy to get your head around. Also fully of opportunities for young grads and creatives looking to breakthrough into the industry.

### 4/5 — Highly recommend

*2025-06-01, version 1.6.5*

A great resource for people starting out in the industry! Provides amazing opportunities and insight into how you can get your foot in the door. You do have to be quick with submissions as many of the opportunities get oversubscribed.

### 5/5 — Making film and TV accessible!

*2025-06-01, version 1.6.5*

I downloaded ERIC when I was studying my Masters in Manchester and through it, I managed to go to several workshops which gave me additional insight that I wouldn’t have been able to gain, or at least hone, otherwise. I’m now working in TV in London and will always recommend it as a great tool for those trying to get a foot in the creative industries!

### 4/5 — Very useful

*2025-06-01, version 1.6.5*

Has information on creative opportunities I personally would never be able to find elsewhere. My only gripe is that it’s geared mostly towards under 30s so as an older creative (wannabe) I struggle to find opportunities on the app relevant to me. Nonetheless it helps me in my search for them and broadens my idea of what’s available out there.

### 5/5 — Eric is remarkable⭐️

*2025-05-31, version 1.6.5*

This app has given me access to many opportunities. I am currently a college student who wants to build up their portfolio for university and for life after that and Eric has provided events, courses, guides and many more resources to help me. I always felt like there were not many chances for me in London to improve in the media sector but the amount of master classes and events to enhance my skills provided has been abundant. This app is amazing it really helps teens and young adults!

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-05-30, version 1.6.5*

This app is futile for creative younger people looking to get into industry. It allows creative souls to come together and teach one another skills or give opportunities in order to benefit their passions and futures. Highly recommend to everyone looking to get into film, art, media, marketing and excessive amounts more careers. Extremely beneficial and helpful!
