A common mistake I see fashion professionals of all experience levels make in their career is just applying to any job because it’s available and sounds interesting, not knowing much about the company OR just knowing about it because it’s a popular brand, nothing about its inner operations or culture.
The process for creating your ideal company profile works best broken up into 3 parts:
1. Personal research
2. External public research
3. Network research
Taking the time to understand your ideal companies will ensure your happiness and peace of mind no matter where you decide to apply to and work for in your career.
