Depends on where you live.
ps. I don't agree with the first answer. Agents work for you. You don't work for the agent. Listen to their advice. Ultimately it's your decision if you want to take their advice. If not, I would recommend finding a different agent. That's why it's important to find an agent that you feel comfortable with.
It is your job to be prepared for the audition. If you want to do commercials . . . you better be ready to do commercials!
NEVER GIVE UP! ! !
Good luck let me know how it goes!

New York City: As a former Talent Agent, I can tell you, it doesn't work that way! Agencies submit the actor for projects they feel the actor is BEST suited. The actor does NOT determine in which area of the industry he/she will work. The agent may think you are better suited for print work or industrials, commercials, spokesperson, cruise ship performer, Broadway, etc.
The actor does NOT control his career, the talent agent is the professional, not the actor. If you want to control your own career, you don't need an agent.
