- Team work
- Me and a few other girls from the college had the opportunity
to dress some mannequins. We got to chose the clothes we
wanted and all the sizes. We also split intp 2 groups and did a
comp shop. my team went into selfridgtes and the other team
went to regents street where we wrote down information and
took loads of pictures
- In your career,you will always have to at some point
work in a team or even with a partner along side of you.
This is key as you can both give your opinions on what
you have to do and get the work done quicker
- Organisation
- I sorted out the rails in the back where
all the stock was kept. There was rails
everywhere from over stock due to the
Christmas period approaching so I helped
organise it so it was a lot more tidy and
easy to access
- You need to have good organisation in
any chosen job you decide to have when
you're older as you need to make sure all
tasks are completed. I will need this in
Buying as I will be very busy and always
have something to do so I'll need to make
sure that every task I do is done
efficiently and correct so I am organised
and can move on to the next task
- Decision Making
- I had to decide what items would go on
the mannequins when I was told to
dress a mannequin all by myself. I had
to decide what items go with what to
chose the correct sizes.
- For buying, you definitely need to
have good decision making. This is
because you need to know exactly
what would sell in the shops. You
need to make sure that you decide
carefully and choose the right
option as it could end up in the
item not selling and you could
loose your job or get into trouble.
- Verbal Communication
- I had to communicate with all different types of customers
on each floor I worked on during the 3 weeks. Also, I had to
help the customers and help find them clothes that they was
looking for and give my opinion when they asked what the
garment would look like on them.
- I will need to have verbal communication as a skill in the future
for my chosen career path as it means I can get things done and I
can get the message across which Im trying to say. You always
need communication in any job but especially in Buying as you
need to negotiate with the suppliers
- Flexibility
- I was able to help do different tasks when
the staff needed help as they had a lack of
staff. I also came in early some days when
they asked me to for extra help.
- Being flexible in your job is always a good skill to have. If a company
notices how flexible you are, they will be very impressed. Being a buyer
means that you need to be flexible at all times. As buyers travel a lot,they
need to make sure theyre able to fly to different places when they need
to, or come into work early to finish off an important task.
