Interviews.

Interviews with fashion students, professors, fashion industry professionals, fashion graduates, etc., about the current state of fashion, as well as discussions about the willingness to add business courses, and research about the direction of fashion graduates seeking employment. Or a free session on how schools can find better ways to help to graduate students deal with the psychological problems they face after graduation.

Interviews with UAL graduate support & career support:

1. Have ever received any emails or questions or answers about students having difficulty finding a job or being anxious about the difficulties they are experiencing?

2. Has it ever occurred there or has anyone suggested giving fashion students a little more course placement in order to fill the industry saturation and give students more possibilities in the direction of future employment options?

3. As I have studied at UAL for a long time, I am well aware of UAL’s mode of teaching. Has there been any thought of adding optional sub-specialties for students to choose from, in addition to their main studies? 

People who have never studied fashion before but would love to get into the fashion industry, have a passion for fashion, love fashion, want to be in fashion, have experience in business, and marketing, and simply think they can use these skills to run a business and manage everything.

Intervention 1
My first intervention was to get the fashion graduates to think about and take a photo of a fashion item that best represented them, embellish the photo, combine this with the rest in any way they could, use their imagination, and see the end result. The FUSL (fashion uniform symbol) group was set up.
 
Then interviewed a blogger who has managed to combine the two unifying symbols of fashion and self-publishing and makes money by advertising cosmetics and clothing.
 
Interview a British lingerie brand entrepreneur to talk about interns, she suggested that there was no way around the problem of brands squeezing fashion students.

Interviews

100% of the interviewees said that “because the fashion industry is too difficult to find a job when they first graduate, they are likely to become self-employed. “Another respondent said, “Probably start in a fashion-related industry, such as a window displayer”.

An interview with someone who has not studied fashion before and works in the fashion industry. The response I was given was that her previous major only made it a teacher in the face of today’s social environment. She wants to maintain herself financially by designing shoes. She wouldn’t want to study fashion afterward.

For someone who has not studied fashion before but is keen to enter the fashion industry, has a passion for fashion, loves fashion, wants to join fashion, has had business, and marketing experience, and feels they can use these skills to run a business. This shows there is very little space left for recent fashion graduates.

After Intervention 1, the participants learn about their own perception of their own personal fashion style, combining both fashion wear and photography. In the process, they also learn that there are other interests they can tap into besides fashion. For example, a social media account can be created. Through this group, more people can also be cultivated to join. And through this group, a follow-up test can be carried out.
