REPLAY: Coffee w/Chris, Fashion Career Q&A

By  | 

Whether you’re actively job hunting, trying to improve your resume, preparing for interviews, or figuring out how AI is changing the fashion job market, navigating your career can feel more complicated than ever.

In our Fall 2026 Coffee w/Chris webinar, Fashion Career Q&A, we answered real questions from fashion professionals about resumes, ATS systems, LinkedIn, interviewing, portfolios, ageism, entry-level opportunities, remote work, AI, and more.

The session focused heavily on practical strategies job seekers can use right now to improve their chances of getting noticed—and getting hired.

Watch the replay to learn:

  • Why you may need both a “Go” resume for ATS systems and a “Show” resume for human recruiters
  • How to make your resume more ATS-friendly and searchable
  • Why accomplishments and measurable results are more powerful than simply listing job responsibilities
  • How AI can help personalize your resume summary for individual job opportunities
  • Ways to optimize your LinkedIn profile so recruiters immediately understand what you do
  • How to research companies and tell value-driven stories during interviews
  • What fashion designers should include in a portfolio—from concept through commercialization
  • Resume strategies for experienced candidates dealing with ageism or “overqualified” concerns
  • What entry-level candidates can do to break into corporate fashion roles
  • Why remote fashion jobs are harder to find—and where they still exist
  • How AI is changing entry-level fashion positions
  • Why demonstrating AI and technology skills is becoming increasingly important at every career stage

We also discussed a simple career habit that can make future resumes, interviews, and performance reviews much easier: keep a running record of your professional wins. Save measurable successes, completed projects, cost savings, sales improvements, efficiencies, compliments, and other accomplishments while they’re still fresh in your mind.

Whether you’re just starting your fashion career or have decades of experience, this replay provides practical advice for navigating today’s increasingly competitive—and increasingly technology-driven—fashion job market.
