Get­ting a Job at Vogue Mag­a­zine, owned by the Conde Nast Pub­lish­ing Com­pa­ny,  is like get­ting a dai­ly “brush with Fame”.  Anna Win­tour, Vogue’s Edi­tor and Chief, is known as the most influ­en­tial woman in fashion.

Work­ing at the mag­a­zine is so pres­ti­gious Mer­rill Streep played Anna Win­tour in a movie about work­ing at the mag­a­zine, The Dev­il Does Pra­da, also star­ring Anne Hath­away as the “fash­ion­less” per­son­al assistant.

But in real life a job at Vogue can change your life.  Ask Paris Mitchell about that.  She land­ed the job a mil­lion women would kill for when she was hired as the assis­tant to US Vogue design direc­tor, Raul Mar­tinez. Now out on her own, today she is con­stant­ly in-demand as a styl­ist and also co-found­ed online store The Mer­can­tile and cloth­ing line Paris Geor­gia Basics with pal Geor­gia Cherrie.

The cul­ture of the fash­ion mag­a­zine can be summed up in the qual­i­ties that Anna Win­tour looks for in an employ­ee: Cul­ture, Con­fi­dence, Point of View, Per­son­al Style, High Ener­gy, Ambi­tion, Open­ness to Col­or (mean­ing wear­ing col­or) and final­ly Pre­sentabil­i­ty.
