Whether you are established or just starting out, there are some general rules about applications to agencies. Big talent agencies like WMA and CAA will almost 100% refuse non-solicited applications from actors. These big agencies represent the A-list of the industry, and in order to be represented by them, they need to know your value in the marketplace. As crude as that sounds, your talent has a money value, and that's what an agent is looking for.
If you want to start out you can approach boutique or local agencies to get representation. You will need a resumé of a least a few productions, or theatre experience before an agent will take you on. Even if you do get representation, 9 times out of 10, agents will not prioritize their time around you as they are also representing a roster of other actors. In order to stand out, and get the best chance, you need to have something special. That's what agents want from unknown actors : Talent, ability, and a unique style.
