Be interview ready!

What should you wear and what should you bring?

Dress on trend, with fitted clothing. Keep it simple and clean. Agencies want to see your body proportions. Keep the makeup minimal, so they can see your natural features.  It is important to be prepared because you may never know when clients are at the agency. You are there to impress and show your future agent how you would look if they submitted you for a major role.

Agencies want you to bring a digital and hard copy of your headshot, in addition to a resume.

Discuss your marketability, uniqueness and how passionate you are about your career.

Talk about your future goals and dreams. Talk about something that says you’re a winner and love what you do. They need to see your personality, persistence, enthusiasm and passion.

Questions you should ask the talent agency?

Here are some questions to be asking:

What is the best way to contact you?

How does the agent keep clients informed about their activities on client’s behalf?

Is this exclusive or not exclusive?

What kinds of clients do you work with and do you think my look fits the client’s needs?

Do you have any suggestions for my photos? Should I shoot again?

Lastly.

“Keep in mind the more marketable your photos are, the more work an agent can get you.” Your agent’s feedback is priceless.
