Explore talent:is it legit?

Question

I decided to try it and I did the 7 day free trial, I am thinking of deleting it soon so they dont charge me, does anyone who have a free acount get jobs?? I am also a member of star search casting, is that a good site? Does anyone have any good sites?

Answer 1

dont use explore talent. if i where you i would just wait for open calls in new york or for MSA.. those are your best bets. delete your account if you have explore talent. its a scam and all they want is money. they honsetly dont care about your talent. get an agent where they actally care and dont try to scam(:

 

Answer 2

YES! after 3 days on my free account with explore talent i was offered a job! its really great you should try it. (: good luck!

Answer 3

Quote: "ive looked at some of those sites also but most if i was u i would delete it because if they say you need to pay anything than its probably not legit and they're just trying to get money $$$$$ if ur serious about acting and its ur passion you should get headshots done , make a resume(you dont need experience) heres a link to a website that shows you how to make a beginners & regular resume http://actinginfo.blogspot.com/2007/09/b...




then i would find some local talent agencies and then submit it"


I tried to go to the Link but it said it did not exist. Is there another link?

Answer 4

Yes explore talent is legit. go for it, im with them now for modeling. its very hard to get call backs and if they called you then its for a reason. they pay up to $8000.00 just for photo shoots and you get free business card which are really worth $500.oo and your own portfolio. like i said go for it!

Answer 5

I have been a satisfied user of Explore Talent for about 3 years or so now. I did do some research and a friend of mine that was a user already explained to me in detail what explore talent was exactly. So I have never had any problems or issues because I went in have a great understanding.

The most common thing you will find if you search explore talent is that it is a scam talent agency....well of course it will seem like a scam if you think it is something other than what it is. Explore Talent is a job resource site for talent (people looking to work within the realms of the Hollywood industry).
Explore Talent is not and agency and do not and cannot
(and neither can an agent for that matter guarantee you jobs or roles as that is the casting director decision).
So what do they offer....you can upload a profile with a program that offers you to build a professional resume (and the jobs you will get help build the experience you list on your resume), you get business cards, and are matched to jobs based on look and or area that you can submit to.
I save hours a day I used to spend search tons of websites everyday for these casting and auditions. I find everything I need in one place at my finger tips and by submitting to jobs I am promoting myself and it makes it so easy. I have even had casting directors request me personally to come in for an audition and landed jobs that way. For example I have gone to 35 auditions this month and landed 13 of those jobs! So it is well worth the $0.50/day for me. I am working and build my name and experience all from one website. I use all of the resources they offer to my advantage and benefit even more.

Now I read up on every company I use and I found this to be true; Companies like the BBB are not really that reliable as they all businesses are in the business of making money...well that stands true for the BBB to. Companies have to pay to look good in the eyes of the ignorant public and it costs them big money. But companies like Verizon and 24 hour fitness don't worry about it because they have too many happy customers to prove that wrong. So when you read reports from the BBB keep that in mind. Because I am glad I did. I also found that each and every complaint to Explore talent was handled swiftly and the customer was pleased in the end.

So if you want to work and want to have the time to go on auditions and not waste time looking for them...Explore Talent is the way to go....i would recommend it to anyone and I do turn my friends onto their services!

Good Luck in all you do! I hope this helps
