Gladly I went to the speech hold by our guest speaker Elena Rivera MacGregor from Rivera Design Group.
That was GOOD!
Here are something that really hit me:
- The trends – What can a junior graphic designer attribute a design firm? The skill, the age, probably? The trends is the key. The most important reason for a design firm wanting to get someone “new” is because they are looking for something “fresh”! Give the employers a shot!
- It is not a memory game – We deal with not only one thing at a time, and there’re always so many details to take care of, in order to keep all the data organized and easy to catch up for the next time, name the files logically! Make check list to help the troubleshooting is a must do thing as well.
- Ask – It is always better to ask rather then guess, not only for ourselves but also for our partners and boss. Knowing things for sure and gain the knowledge, that’s where the confidence comes from. Check, confirm and get approval from the clients, think about Murphy’s Law!
