HOW? I am going to continue with the creative directors on linked in/ start sending a PDF portfolio/ CV; applying for internships and work experience; maybe try out being a runner.. the creative director position looks interesting

WHAT DO THEY WANT?? (particularly the internships) On all of the sites that I read - the word 'ideas' was mentioned a lot!! There was also focus on having the creative skill set to actually carry out these ideas. Focus was also on having a willingness and creative ability to try new technologies and contexts for your work. The idea of being entrepreneurial/ forward thinking/ doing lots of stuff also ran through everything I read.

All of these things are very relevant to my practice so I have made sure that they shine on my CV as much as possible..

MY CREATIVE CV:

I am happy with my CV and think it is very directed toward what I want to do. I just need to cut it down a bit and there is a bit of repetition between the personal statement and skills section, which I need to sort out.
