1. You would either need to place in a competition or win one.
2. Be lucky enough to get your script in their hands or even pitch to them.
3. Sadly, you must know someone.
The short answer? You earn one. There are various ways but they all boil down to having 3 really well written screenplays. Basically 3 that an agent will read and decide it is in their best interest to hitch their wagon to your horse, so to speak. They've gotta be good.
As stated above winning contests gets it in the public. Pitch sessions do as well. But again it all boils down to having really well written scripts.

Set a bear trap line along Sunset Blvd - if that doesn't work, try Dan M's advice.
