It would be awesome if I could tell you that, before I got this job, I knew a little about commercial technology…but there’s just no way I can honestly say that. It doesn’t seem like people under 30 have a clear path to the pro AV field. That’s why one 25 year old just started a Facebook group called AV Job Finder for people of all ages to interact.
On Episode 35 of AV+…
- Perry Chapman, a twenty-five-year-old systems designer and founder of the AV Job Finder group, reveals what inspired him to create it and what he hopes it will accomplish for those seeking or hiring for work in the pro AV integration space

The Commercial Integrator Podcast
The phrase ‘pro AV’ doesn’t do justice to all of the integration crowd, so we at Commercial Integrator wanted to create a pro AV podcast that speaks to all of those areas (and more!) under the umbrella of commercial tech integration.
The host, web editor Adam Forziati, has a background in radio and is looking forward to providing listeners with an entertaining, informative audio forum for all topics affecting the AV industry.
AV+ Podcast Release Schedule
We plan to release a shorter, single-topic episode once every week or two on Fridays. But at the end of each month, we’ll also drop a longer, in-depth episode of the AV podcast with features like Editor’s Desk, CI Monthly News Spotlight, CI’s Project of the Month, and more (just like this episode).
We hope you’ll share your thoughts on Twitter using the hashtag #AVPlusPod !
