The show is well written and is top-notch in the web-series world.

The thing about any web series is that if you expect brilliant acting, you don't understand why a web series is amazing. A web series is created by creative people with funny stories to tell. The acting never has to be top-class. It can't be shabby and awful, sure, but it is allowed to be bad sometimes. This rings true for Job Hunters too.

The story of Job Hunters is brilliantly introduced in the first episode and the characters are also. Immediately we know what these people are going to be like. Over the six episodes in Season One, we see a nice and realistic slight transformation in each character, none of them being left behind as 'just an irrelevant character.' They all have a notable arc.

The way the plot develops is nice. With around 10 minutes to work with for each episode, we see a lot of cool different details about the change in atmosphere in the house. The first episode is quite a calm atmosphere, quite surreal in context. The atmosphere in the next is more negative. The atmosphere follows the plot appropriately and makes sense.

A great thing is about the show is that the arena is hardly shown yet we know what it's like out there, with the help of the dialogue and the little snippets we are given. It focuses on the safe house, which keeps it fresh and more interesting.

I have one main problem with the show. One of my favourite characters, Paige, claims that she would be the first of her family to get a job. That means her whole family is dead. The age in which you are placed into MAEWIN is quite young. Unless her parents were teen parents, she couldn't have been born. They definitely need to clear that up.
