FAQS

WHO CAN APPLY TO ASOS SCOUT?

Anyone can apply. We ask that you are over 16 years of age, not represented by a model agency and that you are living in Europe and eligible to work in the UK.

DO I NEED TO BE A CERTAIN SIZE OR HEIGHT TO APPLY?
With our talent we aim to reflect and appeal to our diverse and inclusive international customer base. We are looking for all shapes and sizes, from petite to plus-size, or XS to XXXL.
IS ASOS SCOUT AN ASOS MODEL AGENCY?
No, this isn’t a model agency. We receive lots of applications through different channels and ASOS Scout is a way for us to streamline these applications. We hope to find new diverse talent that traditional model agencies may not represent.
WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO HEAR FROM YOU AND WHAT HAPPENS IF I’M SUCCESSFUL?
A member of the ASOS Scout Team will respond to all applications within two weeks. If you are successful we will let you know what the next stages are. If you are successful at all stages you will be recruited as one of ASOS’ new faces.
WHAT DOES BEING AN ASOS NEW FACE MEAN?
You will be modelling exclusively for ASOS and the ASOS Scout Team will work closely with you to develop your confidence in front of the camera.
WHAT KIND OF MODELLING COULD I BE DOING?
You would be primarily shooting e-commerce (the product pages on ASOS.com) at our London head office. You would be featured in images and videos and could be shooting a variety of different products. We would want you to feel your most confident, so we wouldn’t expect you to shoot anything you didn’t feel comfortable in.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I’M UNSUCCESSFUL?
Don’t worry, we receive many applications and our brief is constantly evolving and this means you might not be right for what we are looking for right now. If this is the case, we will be in touch to let you know.
DO I NEED A MODEL AGENCY OR PORTFOLIO?
No you don’t. We actually ask that you are not signed with a model agency. No portfolio or modelling experience is required either. All we ask is that you can provide four natural pictures. These don’t need to be professional and can be taken on a phone. Please see our photo tips for more details.
WHAT IF I AM WITH AN AGENCY?
If you are already represented by a model agency then please ask them to contact a member of the ASOS Scout Team. This process is for non-agency represented applicants.
DOES BEING AN ASOS MODEL COST ME ANYTHING?
Applying through ASOS Scout is free. We do not charge you to model for us, but you will need to cover your travel expenses for your initial casting at the London head office, if you reach this stage.
WILL I GET PAID?
If you are successful then you would be paid for all shoot days from the trial stage onwards.
HOW OFTEN COULD I EXPECT TO WORK?
We book more than 30 models every day, so there’s a lot of work on offer. However, it is case by case how much work we can offer each individual. If you are successful, we will discuss with you how many days we are able to offer you.
WHAT DAYS COULD I BE SHOOTING?
Our normal shoot days are Monday – Friday, so we will need you to be available during the week.
COULD MODELLING FOR ASOS AFFECT MY STUDIES/JOB?
If your initial application is successful, you will need to be available to meet us at our London HQ for a casting on a weekday. After this, we can discuss how modelling for us may or may not work alongside your current circumstances.
WHY IS THE APPLICATION ONLY AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH?

ASOS Scout is only open to those from the UK and Europe. Like all of the ASOS’ Talent, entrants will need to take part in shoots at our London HQ and these will be directed in English.
