This week on Career Crashers Joel is joined by Ron Thurston to talk about why your retail work is an incredible place to start and build a career.

Ron is Vice President of Stores at INTERMIX a division of Gap Inc. and has been retail leadership for 25+ years. He is also the author of Retail Pride: The Guide to Celebrating Your Accidental Career.

For so many of us, retail and service jobs are our introduction to work. They help us pay the rent, but also teach us the fundamental skills of creating value for others. But too many people don't look at their work in retail with pride. Ron is on a mission to change that.

Taking the first step in your career always comes with uncertainty and questions.

"Am I going down the wrong path?"

"Will there be opportunities to advance?"

"What if this isn't right for me?"

When faced with your first real opportunity it's easy to get stuck overthinking it. In this week's audio essay, Isaac shares seven reasons why you shouldn't stress about your first job.

In this audio essay:

- You probably don't know what you want yet

- The company is more important than the role (and the industry)

- You are more than a job title or the tasks

- You're not learning how to succeed at just one specific task, you'll be learning how to succeed at anything

- You can't get behind if you're moving ahead

- What you'll be doing in 20 years doesn't exist yet

- You're becoming something, not doing something

At Crash.co we have some awesome tools to help you learn more about these trends and created the tailored pitches you can build to stand out on your own job hunt.

--- 

Going to college wasn’t exactly my cup of tea—at first.

Thankfully, I found my place and discovered my passion for design. This is the story of how I

hacked my way into the design courses I wanted to take, which led to the opportunity to

break into the design industry.

I did this all while still in college, before actually getting my degree.

In the episode, I cover:

• why business school wasn’t for me

• how I transitioned to design school

• how I hacked my way into graphic design studio courses

• my experience at my first design internship

• why you shouldn’t sign NDAs

• how I won my first real design job

• why you shouldn’t lie about your skills—and just learn them before the question even comes

up

• how I broke into the professional design industry

• the AIGA Phoenix Portfolio Review at ASU

• why you should follow up asking about job listings you see online

• how you should think about unpaid internships

• 12 more lessons from my journey so far

As a bonus, there’s an inspiring clip at the end featuring advice for beginner creatives

from one of the most prominent radio hosts and podcasters out there: Ira Glass of This

American Life.

Enjoy & let us know on Twitter @CareerCrash how you’re breaking into your industry!
