I'm the sort of person that says "go for it" and "what's the worst that can happen?" I struggled for years not being able to get my foot in the (creative) door. I wound up managing a kitchen for a large pub chain - which is an absolutely fine career, but it simply wasn't for me. I started to apply to every role and opportunity that could offer me some experience to add to my CV - this included assisting photographers hang their work for upcoming exhibitions and photographing charity events for PR assets - all in my spare time. All of this rather random experience allowed me to start understanding which avenues I'd like to explore for my career. That career ended up beginning at TUI and i've never looked back.

Always being open and interested in new tasks, that's how you can develop further. Enjoy your work and exemplify good teamwork

Always try to do what you enjoy the most, and have fun while doing it. Be true to your principles and values, and always stay true to yourselves. Don't be afraid to try, and above all, don't be afraid to make mistakes. Always be genuine, and try to evaluate situations from various perspectives. Our reality and preferences may not always be the best for the company and the team, and we shouldn't let that discourage us or make us give up.
