Information Exchange Evening

On Wednesday evening there was an information exchange event at university.   The 3rd year fashion students displayed their work placements that they had done in the 2nd year and I was able to ask questions and discuss with them if the placement was suitable for my own degree.  I am currently thinking of work placements for the summer so I found this event very useful.  After wandering around and picking a few interesting placements that suited my degree and my own interests in textiles, I discovered that I should focus on small businesses or freelance designers for work placements.  I think I am more suited to these kind of companies as I would get more information and experience on a one to one basis instead of a busy business where I would feel pressured to not ask them questions about what I would be working with as I would feel I was keeping them back from their deadlines.
