Want some solid career advice from a woman who has made it to the top? Hilary Kerr, founder of successful magazine shopping sites Who What Wear, dishes her best advice to Glamour Magazine:
1. Say yes to everything.
"I've done things that felt overwhelming at the time--like volunteering to go to Spain for a big story when I was just an assistant--but they turned out to be the most amazing learning experiences."
2. Even though it's hard, try not to be the office gossip.
Remember, every industry is small.
3. Don't act entitled.
"All that grunt work teaches you what goes into everything else, which will help you handle bigger projects when you move up".
4. Comparison is the death of happiness.
"People get caught up in who gets what account and what assignment. Just focus on doing the best work that you can."
