Hello, everyone. My name is Darshan Jaju and I am from India. I have been self studying screenwriting for the last 3 years and have written 2 feature scripts and 3 short stories. I recently completed a feature script and now looking to hire an agent or a manger to represent my script. Could anyone please suggest me how can I hire an agent in Hollywood to get my script represented? That would be a great help, thank you.

Welcome to the community, Darshan Jaju. There are agents on Stage 32 you can build relationships/network with. Check out the Browse Members Section (www.stage32.com/people?name=&location=&roles=Agent).
And I suggest being active in the Lounges (www.stage32.com/lounge) by making posts, asking questions, commenting on people's posts, and getting to know people. You could catch the eye of an agent or manager.
Stage 32 contests are a great way to get meetings with agents, managers, and other industry pros: www.stage32.com/scriptservices/contests
You can pitch your scripts to managers through Stage 32's Pitch Sessions (www.stage32.com/scriptservices/pitch-sessions). The sessions are mainly for practice to get your pitch in the best shape, but writers have been signed by managers through the sessions (www.stage32.com/scriptservices/success-stories).
You can also search for agents and managers on IMDBPro (https://pro.imdb.com/signup/index.html?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpro.imdb.com%2F).

Welcome to Stage 32 Darshan Jaju - glad you're with us. Maurice hit on an important point which was to be active in the lounges. I can't recommend that enough as this is a business built on relationships. All the best to you!

Oh wow, Darshan Jaju , that's impressive. What Maurice Vaughan and Leonardo said. Feel free to scroll around. Check the Meetups tab to see if there are any in your area. If not, you can always start your own. :) It's a great way to find other Stage 32 members in your community.

Hello Darshan! Here is an awesome video from our CEO Richard "RB" Botto on how you can get to a manager or agent to pitch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCP7s6Zz88c&t=3s. I'd highly recommend you follow him on instagram, as he gives great advice - @rbwalksintoabar.
