I've never done photography. Can I apply for a photo assistant? What should I pay attention to in the interview?

Of course. I looked at the recruitment website. Many companies are looking for photography assistants and apprentices. Some companies have no requirements for experience at all, but only ask you to love photography, be hard-working and love learning. Of course, the wages of these positions are definitely not high. If you want to learn from scratch, you must reserve your own funds.

Of course, if you want to do this job well, it is necessary to learn basic photography skills and retouching skills. There are a large number of such courses online, which can be obtained by self-study. If you have artistic skills, a sense of composition and light, it will be better to operate high-definition photographic equipment.

Because you are inexperienced in photography, it is important to highlight your love of photography when you go to the interview. Let the interviewer feel your love for photography and tell me what you have done for this love, because you will pay for it because of your love. If you have done nothing, it's hard to make people believe that you love photography.

I saw a batch of job advertisements on the recruitment website, which helped you analyze the recruitment requirements of photography assistants. Most companies require photographers to love learning and be willing to endure hardships, so you must also highlight this trait in the interview.

I have written a lot about how to analyze recruitment positions before. In fact, any position is developed around three dimensions: professional knowledge, transferable skills, talent and quality. Professional knowledge refers to the knowledge involved in the post, and transferable skills refer to the abilities that need to be used in any job, such as writing ability, expression and communication ability, problem-solving ability and so on. Talent and quality are personal qualities that a person has formed since childhood, such as hard work and honesty.

You just need to analyze the job information on the recruitment website, and you will understand.

Photographic assistant is just a threshold. I believe that your ultimate career goal is to become a senior photographer, or to open a studio independently in the future, so you should also show your requirements for the future during the interview, so that others will think that you are an applicant who loves learning and is not afraid of hardship.
