  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to Gymshark

    • Be yourself and bring your best work to the table! Gymshark want to develop people, so show the willingness to learn and you'll stand out from the crowd. At my interview, I was the only person wearing jeans as everyone else was wearing trousers and smartwear (which at the time was NOT something I would usually do) so I walked out thinking there's no way I'd have got the job, but here I am today because i used it as an opportunity to be myself and show my passion for photography.
