How can i work for a company such as D&G, Armani, Marc Jacobs, G Star etc..?

I'm in my first year of college and I study 4 A levels:


Maths


ICT


Business


Statistics





What path will I need to choose in uni to be working with a company like the ones I've mentioned? Like designing their web or doing paper work for them at home or at office or even taking photo shoots with their clothing?





Thanks in advance!|||You need more than just those 4, they will only get you as far as doing paper work (like maybe accounting for that company). If you want to get into designing their web site or taking photoshoots then you have to be majored in that field.


For example, I am a 2nd year Communication Arts student (web design, graphic design, magazine layout, etc.) and I would probably be more likely to get hired for those jobs because i have the design experience backing me up. And would stand no chance in the business portion of the company.


I'd recommend to focus on what you want to exactly do for the company because you need to take the classes in order to get the job you want.|||Fashion and Designing, you should get some experience and add in journalism/photo journalism. Then you should make a resume with all your experience and send it to the store you want to apply for.|||If you just started college so its not too late to change your courses, and this is what you want to do, I would drop statistics and math, and take on photography and fashion textiles, and perhaps drop ICT for web/graphic design. In university, you will definately need to apply to a very good fashion school, such a university will only take you on if your a levels seem relevant, otherwise they will think you are not serious and have no experience in the field what so ever, it will seem like you picked it out of thin air. A Levels are very important, and even with a degree, businesses will still look at your a levels, and if their unrelated to fashion they will question why, particularly as its so competitive. Not trying to make you feel down, just being realistic. Im doing a management degree and so did economics and business studies and law at a level, imagine how I would have looked applying for management if id done art and textiles as a levels! Its something you have to really think about, good luck!
