Sinopsis
Two young women at the top of their game talk about junior-level staff – and how the creative industries don’t always encourage them to their full potential. Dior Bediako is the founder of Pepper Your Talk, a platform for young fashion creatives. Her new project The Junior Network has created a community of fashion professionals at the beginning of their careers, with events and resources to propel them forwards. Mercedes Benson is an independent social media marketing socialist, who has worked for Google, Adidas and Puma. Her community-based platform SocialFixt encourages entry-level black, Asian and minority talent into the creative industries. Also on the agenda: tokenism, the experience of recent graduates and why we should all be learning from our junior colleagues.
