You will need a good quality camera and have pictures for your portfolio. A variety of pictures gives you an upper hand with your future employers. Your company needs to have a rough idea of who you are. Less make up is advised. Your natural beauty needs to be seen. All the pictures need to be complied into a portfolio and remember to never go for an interview without a portfolio.

• How connected are you? – Your success as a model will depend on how networked you are. This is evident just like in other companies apart from modelling. People need to be familiar with your face. Know the photographers and any other person that is connected in some way to the agency. A good tip is that you need to be outgoing so that you stand out. Get connected with as many people as possible and by chance, you will get a job. Social media will get your name out there hence increasing your fan base.

• Be careful – Nowadays, companies will try to claim money. Many ads will ask for models but very few can be trusted. A lot of care should be taken when applying for the modelling jobs. There are a few pointers to show whether an agency is legit:
