Your very best chance of getting modelling work is by joining a trustworthy, reputable, genuine modelling agency.
It sounds obvious – but you would be surprised at how many of those seeking become models end up falling victim to companies and individuals who are not really agencies at all.
Did you know only genuine employment agencies can actively seek work for those they represent?
As a real employment agency that has been in business for over 30 years now, Models Direct has an in-depth understanding of the regulations, as well as how the process works.
We are vetted and registered with the government and our professional team is busily forging relationships with clients and seeking work for our models every single day.
Other so-called agencies do not do this.
Indeed, if they are not a registered employment agency, they are not legally allowed to do this.
All they can do is showcase photographs – that models have often bought from them at vast expensive – in the hope that clients might just happen upon them.
Therefore, the best chance models have of getting work is to start with a modelling agency.
However, we would always urge you to do your research on any agency you choose to join.
Read about its clients, find out about the assignments they send their models on and browse the reviews from models who have actually accepted work with the agency.
Of course, no agency – including Models Direct – can ever guarantee to find modelling work for any of those on its books.
That simply isn’t a reality. But many of our models are offered and do accept work with us – and many have worked with us over and over again.
Clients contact us every day with a steady stream of requests for models of all ages, types and looks.
We sift through the e-portfolios of the models on our books and we offer our clients a selection of those who meet their exact requirements.
The choice of who to employ is then down to our client – and the choice of whether to accept the job is down to the model.
This is why we never say we can guarantee work to any of our models.
But if you don’t sign up with Models Direct, you obviously won’t be in the running to be put forward for the many exciting assignments that our models take part in.
