11 Fashion Industry Job Searching Tips

,

Here we go again! We’ve said it time and time again, we at Underfashion Club care about our students out there. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of some valuable tips for new fashion industry entry-level job seekers sending out their resumes….

Keep it personal.
1. Try to not use a school, work or shared email address on your resume or responding to online job listing. Seeing an address linked to another place of employment or your student database may be a turnoff to employers. If necessary, create a new email address solely for resumes(and don’t forget to check it for responses!). read more
