    Well said. Social media is over all a great tool to get your name out there, but it should not be mandatory to get a job. In some scenarios social media can even have negative effect. For example, when/if recruiters are more interested in your numbers than your skills. Secondly, if social media has somewhat big impact on who gets the job, it can lead to mental health issues if/when the following isn't what is needed.

It can also help you get into a union, but not everyone wants that

He’s worked alongside KZread VAs many times and even has friends that are VAs and do KZread on the side I don’t know who kicked him off that project, but it was probably someone from an outside studio since funimation’s in-house team has done a lot of work with KZread VAs
