Fashion Public Relations at LCF 2012

Hiyaa, I had the interview... it went okay. There is a man and a woman in the interview. The group gets split into two and first you get put with either one and do a group activity of creating links between loads of pictures they give you and you have to present links. Which went well. Then you have the individual interview with the other person to who you did the group interview with so mine was the guy. It was HORRIBLE. He's so pretentious, everyone came out thinking the same thing. He's really rude and was like slagging off Vogue and other people thinking he's so different for not liking them... frustrating! but i'm not sure if i'll get accepted or not... we'll see! Have you heard back yet? Yeah I've print screened them! What have you put in yours? :smile:

Ahhh thanks, thats so much help!! :biggrin:

when are you expecting to be told ifyou were successful or not?
When you had the interview, did he ask you about your personal statement much? and did he stick to what you were expecting, or stray off to other topics a lot?
I havent heard back yet, but hopefully now the christmas hols are over i will!! i have an interview for glamorgan uni on the 14th which i'm nervous about but feeling fairly confident at the moment i think :s-smilie:

haha. I've just got a lot of my photography work in my portfolio, along with some english language journalistic style pieces and some stuff i did for media last year...desperately trying to make it look impressive lol! :smile:

thanks again!

Next week I think! He didn't mention my personal statement he only asked why I want to do the course and by that telling him a person in this specific field I would aim to be like (don't say Grace Coddington, Alexandra Shulman or Christopher Bailey... look at creative directors or publishers for different brands?), if I have a blog, who I follow on twitter and what magazine I read (don't say Vogue) haha. He'll try and challenge you so make sure you have an argument for your answer! Also in the group question look up old artists/art movements, photographers, factory girl film and links between designers there were henry holland, anna wintour, audrey hepburn, yves saint laurent, chanel, phillip green, bhs, m+s, topshop, fauvism art movement... those were some pictures we had to link so you might wanna look up some of those? it's okay because you'll bounce off each other in the group one but they're the only ones i can remember! aw good luck! Got my Ravensbourne one Friday which I'm nervous about... yeah I'm really paranoid about my portfolio... it doesn't look much! hm ow well, we'll see! Good luck! + hope that helped :smile:

Don't stress too much its pretty laid back, the tasks you're given are straightforward but I only did one out of two. & just go casual/smart not too smart though & something you'll feel comfortable in.

The interview went really well - I got a conditional offer! :smile:

I've got an interview at the Middlesex in a couple of weeks but feel a bit better about it now I've got through one interview! Where else have you applied for and what would your first choice be?
