Not that I'm model material anymore, but I'm very curious about the process of becoming a model for QVC.  

What do interviews consist of? 

Why do we sometime go for many days/months without seeing a model and then they suddenly show up again.

QVC uses models from JTA  (Joy Talent Agency).  They are not QVC employees.

JTA has a website you can go for more information.They are located near Philadelphia, PA.

To be honest I think it looks like a very boring job. At least modeling clothes anyway. Just standing there and pivoting a leg and turning around (some don’t even do that) and of course smiling I would go crazy. They also get caught between a host and vendor talking over each other. I think I’d rather find something where I can use my brain. Some of them have been with QVC for years so it must pay well but no thank you.

"I think I’d rather find something where I can use my brain."

Honestly, this may be the perfect second job that doesn't require "brain work".  Or not?  I'm not sure how much of what is presented is the work of the models and how much is a behind-the-scenes stylist setting up outfits for them.

Really, I'm thinking I'd hate to have to put on and take off multiple outfits in a two hour period!  Those models have stamina, imo!

@timeless I think it’s behind the scenes stylists helping them change quickly. Some of them work hard and long hours. Katie, Crystal, Jaime and the one who models on the Graver shows who has horses - they are all good at showing the clothes. I just think it would be boring but that’s just me.

I see Katia, Jaime, Pam and Crystal the most. Not sure how they change so quickly, especially on some of those Denim & Co shows lol

Seems like some of them are on 24/7.  Wonder when they sleep or have a life.

Joy was a previous QVC model for many years.  She had the best hair and lips! Seems her Talent Agency is quite lucrative.

I have not seen this model doing makeup demonstrations in a long time.

@kittycatmeow  I remember Joy doing the Bare Minerals shows, and Leslie saying she had heart-shaped lips.
