An internship will help you hone skills and abilities, but also expand your areas of interest and knowledge base. For instance, you might learn you prefer channelling your creative skills into social media rather than design; working in commercial strategy rather than creative execution; in-house instead of at an agency. “I think the internship is critical [to] reflect on, ‘What did I like about it? What did I not like about it? Can I see myself doing this when I’m 45?’ Those are basic questions but so important to be able to filter out in your early days,” says Jon Zeiders, president of womenswear and accessories label Staud and a partner on non-profit RaiseFashion’s internship programme. “Don’t be afraid to try and fail,” Browns’ buying director Ida Petersson previously told BoF. “You can’t go anywhere without risk. Understanding what you’re up against but taking those leaps of faith is how you make things happen.” Read the full article, How to Succeed as a Fashion Intern, on BoF. #fashionintern #fashioninternship #fashionentryleveljobs #fashionassistantroles

Carlota Guerrero started experimenting with photography as a teenager but studied psychology and communications at university in Barcelona, with a particularly impactful year abroad in Paris. “I started seeing how art was respected — and [how] I could make a career from it,” she told BoF. Aged 24, Guerrero landed her first major commercial project as a photographer and art director — for Solange Knowles’ studio album “Seat at the Table”. With a distinctive minimalistic aesthetic and visual language, often working with groups of women and identity exploration, Guerrero has since landed accounts with the likes of Givenchy and Dior, Loewe, Phillip Lim, Zara and Nike, as well as further collaborations with Knowles. Dive into the article, How I Became... An Art Director, to discover Guerrero’s advice: https://lnkd.in/ermVuBDA #artdirector #artdirectionjobs #fashionphotographer #fashionartdirector #stylingassistant #artdirectionassistant #fashionassistant

The term “Imposter Syndrome,” formerly known as “Imposter Phenomenon,” denotes feeling like a fraud and undeserving of success at work. It is often attributed to women, underrepresented groups and junior employees. “I call it facing bias and being part of a system that wasn’t designed for you,” says Ruchika Tulshyan, founder of inclusion strategy firm Candour and the author of Inclusion on Purpose: An Intersectional Approach to Creating a Culture of Belonging at Work. A key pillar of advice from the experts is to lean on your personal and professional network, to gain perspective and help you contextualise your concerns or feelings of inadequacy. “It is important to check in with other people who have [your] back, and who could hold [you] accountable. Maybe they will give me advice that there is this thing that I could do to up-level, but more often than not, the advice in those situations is: ‘we don’t see [what you are doing wrong]’,” says Tulshyan. BoF Careers breaks down insights and advice from academics and fashion professionals on how individuals, and the fashion industry as a whole, might begin to tackle its pervasive Imposter Syndrome problem.

Gucci Westman has helped create covers for American Vogue, W, Harper's Bazaar, AnOther Magazine and Vanity Fair, working with renowned photographers like Annie Leibovitz, Michael Thompson and Peter Lindbergh. She has created runway looks for Proenza Schouler, Thakoon and Vera Wang and has worked on campaigns for brands like Oscar de la Renta, Missoni, Estée Lauder and Ralph Lauren. “I think it's important you have some kind of emotional connection to your trade if you're a makeup artist. It’s important, through that extension of yourself, that you feel honest. It's not a part-time gig — you have to be in it 100 percent. “Be sensitive to people's needs because you meet all different types. You work with actresses one day, models the next, athletes and singers. You have to wear many hats and be able to adapt to various situations — sometimes the photographer doesn't want your opinion and sometimes they really want your opinion.” Dive into the article, How I Became...

Draw the connections between your past experience, your desired trajectory and the current needs of your target organisation. Illustrating the connection between these three is your “elevator pitch” — the unique selling point that might form an introduction to your resume or shared in conversations with recruiters. “Lean into your uniqueness and your understanding of something,” said Geoffrey Williams, global vice president of diversity, equity and inclusion at Burberry, in a recent interview for BoF. “I think a lot of the time, people expect if they were to go and take someone else’s thoughts or sentiments, that will open the door for them. Having your own narrative and your own position is always a benefit in my mind.” Personalising your application by tying your skill set and experience back to the company and role specifically at hand can further help your application stand out. “This way you can address what is top of [recruiters’] mind, because at the end of the day, they are hiring to fill a need — they just want the perfect person to fall out of the sky,” says Caroline Ceniza-Levine, executive recruiter and career coach whose clients include Fortune 500 companies to tech and media startups, as well as executives from the likes of Amazon, Google, and McKinsey.

Amiyra Perkins, a senior lead of creative strategy at Pinterest, began her career in fashion by studying textile and surface design at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), before working as a freelance designer for Gap and Express. In 2010, she joined Victoria’s Secret as a print and colour concept intern and left as an associate designer in 2014. Perkins went on to become a trend consultant and then director of consulting for WGSN, returning briefly to Gap Inc. to work as a senior designer in concept at Old Navy. Then, in 2021, she joined Pinterest in her current role. “By the time I took over running our quality vision team at WGSN, it was the first time I was able to lean into my own identity as a proud Black woman, to say, “Hey, I know what’s going on too. I bring this diverse perspective.” I wish I had had that quiet power earlier in my career because [...] the reality, in fashion, is that it is okay to stand out [and] be expressive.” Dive into the article, How I Became...

While the symptoms of burnout are well-documented and relatively straightforward to self-diagnose, identifying the cause of burnout is more complex. Psychologist Dr. Jiménez identifies six “mismatches” that happen between the employee and workplace that can lead to burnout. These include: work overload; a breakdown in community, or a lack of communal support; values conflict, when your personal values do not align with your work; command and control leadership, such as being micromanaged; absence of fairness, such as bias in a team; and a lack of reward — being passed over for promotion, pay increases and recognition. “The more targeted you could get with what is causing the burnout, the more efficacious your response can be,” says Dr. Jiménez.
