PERSONAL PROFILE
I am an organised and conscientious individual with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to
communicate well within a variety of demographics. I am keen to further my knowledge and
understanding within the field of fashion in order to advance my career.
EDUCATION
RELEVANT EXPERIENCE
In this job I was responsible for analysing models’ portfolios and uploading photos onto the company
website using Photoshop. This gave me an insight into the world of fashion and photography and I felt
capable of evaluating whether the models photographs had the potential to represent the company. I
developed my personal relation skills through the constant communication to clients regarding photo
shoots and promotional work. I also monitored the company’s accounts, kept track of money
movements and wrote cheques. I was able to produce relevant spreadsheets using Microsoft Excel.
I have previously been involved with modelling for Channel 4, Pepsi and HSBC. I feel this experience
has facilitated my understanding of fashion, style and presentation. Furthermore I regularly read
fashion magazines to keep updated with the current seasons and trends. I am keen to further my
involvement with modelling as it helps develop my creativity and knowledge of fashion.
OTHER EXPERIENCE
Working as a stock controller gave me the responsibility of monitoring and replenishing stock levels on
a regular basis. My roles included using the companys ordering system to input and review daily
figures and ensure that necessary products were ordered on time. I was also required to train new
members of staff and supervise their work until they were fully competent with the job. I discovered
that I am a good team player and can work well alongside others.
