Yes, it is best to make sure you have the basic qualifications such as the education and the training for the field you are interested in. A degree in visual arts, fashion, business, or something of the like shall be required. While you are in school, take a summer internship program in fashion or the music industry so that you can establish contacts and learn customer service as well as the ropes of the trade.
Once you graduate, the same industry you had an internship for may offer you a full-time position. From there you work hard, make contacts, and more up according to your aptitude.

There are book in the library that can help you learn more about each industry. The more recent the books are, the better. Read them and take notes.

Moreover, to scope out the jobs, check: www.entertainmentcareers.net That’s a great start. See what qualifications they want.
Often it is helpful to work as a receptionist for a company for the summer or as an assistant to a fashion designer or an assistant for an A&R rep.
Make sure to have a good resume and polish your interviewing skills. The books from the library should help. If you can’t find what you want there, check amazon.com.
