In this new episode of The Glam Observer Podcast,we talk about one of the most requested careers in fashion: the role of the buyer. I asked Calypso Barnum-Bobb who is Assistant Buyer at Asos, to join me for the episode and talk about this exciting and interesting role. She was Assistant Buyer at Topshop, then Buyer Admin Assistant and then Assistant Buyer Concessions before getting her job at Asos where she works in the sneakers department with brands such as Nike and Converse, I asked her to explain the difference between all these buying jobs, what is the first job for buyers, how deep your knowledge on numbers and excel is requested during the application of a buying job or internship. We also talked about her work travels and what she likes the most about her job and working in London.
