    Plain English: We're too cheap to pay for training -- we make our competitors do that for us.

    You must be socially well-adjusted enough to:

    - not grab ass
    - not make inappropriate remarks in the presence of members of favored minority groups
    - not make remarks that can be construed as sexist or homophobic in any way
    - smile pleasantly while attending useless meetings
    - show gratitude when given projects with no possible hope of success

    Plain English: You're going to be Bubba's Bitch and you're going to like it. Unpaid overtime is your new reality -- get used to it.

    Horrifyingly relevant. I like being self-employed.
     
    Certifications: Lots.

    I had to reply to this as I hold a Bachelor’s in Fine Art Painting and am presently writing the dissertation to complete a Masters in IT Security. For you the study of photography will probably include a digital component and therefore a link between the two, but even if this was not the case I believe that a broad education is beneficial. Does anyone agree?
