DD is 22, has always loved fashion and beauty and has now decided she wants to work in that world in a PR or marketing role. She's an economics graduate (2012) and over the past 3 years has managed to gain about 9 months of work experience and interning at various high-end fashion, fragrance and beauty companies.
DD is now busy applying for every paid position she can find and is going to sign up with some specialist recruitment agencies. She is coming to the end of a four month internship and is desperate to find some paid work.
Any kind people out there with experience who could offer some advice on her next move? Would it be worth undertaking a marketing qualification? And how much is too much interning? DD is fed up of working for no pay, but I think the market now expects it of new graduates, unfair as it seems. Thanks.
