A fresh-out-the-gate graduate with a portfolio overflowing with stunning concepts, but feeling those CRICKETS from your dream companies every time you hit apply.
An early career hustler with impressive internship experience under your belt, but your role isn't letting you blossom into that full potential you know is there.

A true self-made go-getter without any formal fashion schooling or connections, just an unrelenting drive to dive into this creative world you've been obsessed with forever.

"I graduated from FIT in May of 2020 during the most bizarre time. For months I struggled to land my first job in the fashion industry and I was hopeless from being rejected by every job I applied for."
Being a member of the membership allowed me to feel more prepared for my interviews. Maria's feedback, guidance, and positivity helped me get my first job as an assistant designer for an activewear company in New York City. FCC is a great program that helped me reach my goal and sparked confidence in me. I would recommend the membership to anyone who wants to make an impact in their career success. Thank You, Maria for all you have done!

"My career journey was not really going well as I feel like I was putting myself out there, but getting no call backs."
Maria was able to work with what I had and bring out what skills and experiences that I didn't bring out on my own. She gave resources out for me to use to strengthen my resume - I am forever grateful for her.
I feel more confident in applying to jobs than I did before. Maria even gave me some talking points for if I was still in an interview that I’m able to build on via conversation. My advice? Don’t even think about it, just do it.

I'M MARIA HEDIAN
When I was first starting out in the fashion industry, I didn't know anyone - didn't have a clue how to even start. I got a retail job at 15 and learned as much as I could from that experience, never realizing that this would be the start of my love affair with the world of fashion.
Doing everything on my own and from such a young age was definitely a lonely road. My family didn't understand the industry, I barely had a college life because I was commuting from work in New Jersey to school in New York City. I had no one to share my wins with, ask my questions to or get industry advice from.
I didn't want anyone else to go through this. Regardless of the path you're on or the experience level you have, I wanted to create a space where professionals of all levels could come together and find a place within a community of people who are facing the same struggles, going through the same experiences, wishing to share their successes and looking for answers to the same questions.
I didn't have a community then, so I created the one I wish I had, now. I hope you'll join me.

"I graduated in June and have been unemployed for about 5 months, till I came across Maria's resources."
Her regular tips, including weekly career opportunities, resume enhancements and networking advice, were invaluable. It was through her platform that I learned about an internship opening. I utilized her email template to reach out to someone within the company. I owe Maria immense gratitude for facilitating this opportunity, as it led to my first role post grad!

So...You've Got Questions?
How often is new content and training released within the membership?
Fresh new training drops every single week to keep those creative juices flowing! All new content is added to your Members Area for easy access. All members receive an email letting them know when content has been uploaded into their library. This content is available for use and viewing anytime.
Will I have access to the full library of past content and resources when I join?
The short answer is YES! Regardless of when you join, you will have access to all past content and resources that were added into the Members Area for as long as you're an FCC member. This content will no longer be available to you if you cancel your membership subscription.
Is there a set curriculum I'll go through or can I customize my learning path?
When you first join, you'll be taken through a Welcome Series which walks you through everything you need to know about accessing the content within the Members Area. From there, it's encouraged that you take the Success Path Assessment which tells you which season you're in as a fashion industry professional. Based on this information, you'll receive content and resources catered to your season.
All other content available within the Members Area, such as Masterclasses, guides, jobs/internship opportunities and monthly challenges, can be accessed at any time and in no particular order. These resources are there for you to use, learn from and take advantage of 24/7.
In addition to the resources, what kind of community support is provided?
I'm ALWAYS just an email away if you need support. All questions should be sent to [email protected].
Additionally, we also have The Fashion Space, our exclusive members-only online forum and community area, where you can ask questions, share wins, seek advice, find accountability partners and so much more. This is a new addition to the membership and one I'm so excited to grow. It's a chance for members to truly build a community.
Can I cancel my membership if it's not a good fit?
Absolutely - you can cancel anytime. Simply follow the directions found in our Terms and Conditions page for monthly or yearly cancelation requests.
Are there any additional costs beyond the membership fee for things like certifications or intensives?
Not a single one! All members will receive all the content mentioned as part of their subscription. On the contrary, there may be months where I add surprise bonus extras into the Members Area!
