Talent Hunt — run a talent show or competition online

Talent Hunt is the part of MJX Events for auditions, talent shows and competitions: "Auditions · Judging · Winners. A registration form with your sponsors, a shortlist on WhatsApp, judges' marks in every round, eliminations and the winner — or a one-day competition in a single round."

It is separate from ticketing — it never changes anything for an organizer who only sells tickets.

#Who can use it?

• MJX switches Talent Hunt on for your account, or includes it in a plan. Then the owner and Managers see Talent Hunt in the account menu. Staff never do.
• Running only a talent hunt? Sign up free at ~/shows/signup — no card, no fee. "Ticketing stays off until you choose “Try event ticketing”."
• On a Talent-Hunt-only account, a card offers Try event ticketing: one tap switches ticketing on (on the Free plan) and opens New event.

#How a talent hunt runs

1. Set up — create the talent hunt, its season and its web address. See Set up a talent hunt.
2. Take registrations — share one link; contestants fill in the form. See Registrations.
3. Shortlist — move good entries into the competition; they get a WhatsApp message. See Shortlist, judges and rounds.
4. Judge each round — enter each judge's marks out of 10; eliminate one contestant per round.
5. Pick the winner — in the final. The winner shows under Past winners.
6. Sponsors — logos beside the form, terms accepted online. See Sponsors and terms.

#In the app

The MJX Events app has Talent Hunt too: Talent Hunt on the events list and its menu, with tabs Entries, Rounds, Judges, Sponsors and Settings, and Open Talent Hunt on the website one tap away. On the welcome screen, "Running a talent hunt?" opens the free sign-up.
