Hi there!
My name is Rozzie and I am currently in my third year of a Digital Art degree in Scotland. This semester I have a "work related learning" module which means I must find myself a work placement in order to pass the module. I have a problem however as I need to stand out from the crowd. There are 3 universities and 3 colleges all looking for work placements at the same time, all within the creative industry. I know for a fact that there are over 100 in my university alone.
I have tried thinking outside the box with this. I have offered 3D walk through services for small landscape companies for free, However no one has expressed any interest. I am good at what I do, however the competition is fierce. I am writing to ask people who have had far more experience in this to offer me advice on how to stand out. I heard some people tell me that letters just get thrown out without any notice etc. I have not had much experience in the work environment so my CV is rather thin. I would be so grateful for any help you can offer me! Thank you in advance!
