Thank you all for your interest and emails so far.

So far, majority of the mails I have received are from those from age group 30-50.

Please note that I wish to give the younger crowd an opportunity; am actually looking for those from 16-30. Division 1 is made up of the more experienced (and hence, usually older) photographers while Division 2 typically has the younger photographers in it.

While I do not automatically discount your application if you are over 30 years old, I would encourage the younger crowd to apply (if you can balance both studies and work).

No CV or portfolio, it's fine with me. My current PA (DIV 2) did not have a CV when he first came to me.


Regards
Chan

Not at all.

"Bad luck in December"? Sorry, I catch no ball

I did give someone the sack during that time though.... and she did happen to be a female. Are you the same person? ;p

Huh?

Sorry, that may not be me. The only person I can recall who went to HK in Dec was my Managing Associate Photographer (DIV 2).

Usually applications are handled by the respective heads of each division, not by me. It might be him who sent you this mail or some screwed up communications (had over 25 applications that time).

Also, are you sure you were asked to start working? (because I don't ask anyone to work unless we have a face to face meeting first)

How about you mail me direct (mail@JC-Photography.org) and cc him (mail2@JC-Photography.org this time if you are interested?
