I’m a college student, my name is Coley. I am in a Career Planning course and as an assignment I am required to do an informational interview with someone that is in the industry I want to be in. My ultimate goal is to be a fashion designer. I don’t know where else to go to ask questions, so I thought here would be wonderful. If someone could please answer these questions I would appreciate it.

1. How did you get started in this job?

2. What skills, training, education, and experience are necessary to enter this field today?

3. Where is the best place to get training necessary for this field?

4. Are you happy with your choice to enter career? Why or Why not?

4. What is the earning potential and projected employment outlook for this career?

5. How has your job changed since you first started working here?

6. What are your responsibilities and what do you LIKE most about your job?

7. What is the most difficult aspect of your job?

8. What advice do you have for someone interested in training for this career?

9. Is there someone else in this field you would recommend me to contact?

10. As a student, what could I be doing NOW that might help me for this career?

    Hello coleystreasures,

    I just thought I would give you some suggestions. Go to the About me page and you can contact one of Burdastyles talented team members. Try Nora, Alison or Larisa with their emails at the bottom of each of their photos. Also, we have many members here that I hope will help you along.

    Good luck and happy sewing from your friendly Burdastyle moderator!
