In my first proper job, for an independent record label, the guy who employed me said it was my determination, cheek and charm that got me the position, not my CV. Good thing, as I failed my music CSE spectacularly.

I'm now filming and photography manager for a major sports venue, also doing PR. I was rubbish at all sport at school, and have never had any professional photography or PR training. I've blagged it all the way.

(However, I do have an O level in cookery and over the cricket season bake loads of cakes for the Essex, Middlesex and England team, so that qualification has come in useful.)
