Model scouts are always on the lookout for new talent, working either as freelancers or directly for agencies, often scouting on a global scale. Their job doesn’t stop outside office hours, as they continuously seek potential models, even during their personal time. Compensation for scouts varies, ranging from fixed payments for discovering new faces to commissions based on the models’ job acquisitions. A keen sense for the current fashion industry’s desired “types” is essential for a scout’s success.
