Want to work in sports? Getting your résumé into the pile is only the beginning.

Matt Coy has spent more than 30 years working behind the scenes of some of the biggest teams, venues and events in sports, including the Olympics, Super Bowls, the Dallas Cowboys, New York Knicks, New York Rangers, Madison Square Garden and, most recently, working with the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium.

In this episode of The Hot Sheet, Matt takes us inside the world of sports production and explains what it actually takes to build a career in the industry. We go behind the scenes of game-day production, from creating content for massive stadium screens and rehearsing live entertainment to coordinating cameras, DJs, hosts, performers and broadcast timing down to the second. Then we get into the question so many people want answered: How do you actually get hired in sports? Matt explains why applying online isn't enough, how thousands of applicants can be reduced to a handful before a hiring manager ever sees them, why networking remains one of the most powerful tools you have, and what candidates can do to genuinely stand out.

Whether you're trying to land your first job in sports, transition from television or film, or simply want to know what happens behind the scenes before tens of thousands of fans enter a stadium, this conversation is packed with insight from someone who's spent three decades doing it.
