• apprenticeship? Steve Last updated by Jodie: 21-Jul-2017

  Son of a tailor, I’ve grown up among fabrics, threads and patterns. It wasn’t until later on in life, when my parents’ business had already closed down, that I finally took an interest in it, and now I’d like to dedicate myself to it. My dad insists that I can start as an apprentice, but I feel more inclined to maybe cutting my teeth in a big firm.

    Well it all depends on what you’re looking for, but I’d go for the apprenticeship option. You’ll be mentored and will get indications and guidelines that I don’t think they’ll be giving you in a big company.

      I’m not sure Jodie, big companies also have their quality and standard levels, don’t you think?

        I’m sure they do, but they’d be more restricted to their particular objectives. I don’t know, it just feels like an apprenticeship would be more wholesome. It may be just my perception though.
