"Application job is like dating, "said Rebecca Goodman, 26." Anyone interested or not. There is also trying all-in-clothes-before-the interview, it feels much like dressing for a first date. "

Rebecca speaks from experience. It took a series of jobs (and a host of applications and interviews) to the land of their current position. As an account manager for the renowned fashion houses, which handles press and media, plans and more exciting events, organizations of all fashion shows. "I've finally found a place where I feel comfortable and open with people I work with, and where I am excited and challenged every day, "he says.

For Rebecca, whose love for fashion blossomed in high school while following the trends in issues of YM and seventeen years, their success has resulted directly from his persistence. "It's really about being aggressive. You have to know what you want and go for it. I never worried, 'Oh, I do not know if I call since I already emailed. "I just called."

This to take charge attitude might scare off potential dates, but has worked wonders in the professional life of Rebecca. While a junior at the University of Michigan, majoring in communications and media studies, which pulled all ads from fashion issues of Vogue Elle and Bazaar, investigated each line and find contact information, and sent his resume. She landed interviews in New York with Ralph Lauren, Chanel and Henri Bendel, who signed for a two-month marketing and public relations practices.

In addition to working behind the scenes, meeting and fashion icons such as Victoria Beckham and Vogue editor Anna Wintour, is witnessing firsthand the work of art by masters such as Oscar de la Renta. "When I see the looks come down the runway, I pinch."
