Getting a Job as a Graphic Designer is tough. Yet it’s never been a better time to become a Graphic Designer. Graphic Design Jobs are hard to find, but here is how you compete…
HOW TO BECOME A GRAPHIC DESIGNER & GET HIRED
The traditional Graphic Design Career and Design Job is becoming a thing of the past and the Graphic Design Job Market is more saturated than ever when it comes to 9 to 5 Employment.
You have so many competing options where employers are concerned. Crowdsourcing, Overseas outsourcing, freelancers, Fiverr… there is a lot stacked against Graphic Designers.
Yet with a growth in entrepreneurship and start up culture, and more awareness around what graphic designers do, there is also more opportunity than ever, that is why it is so saturated.
Instead of working 9 to 5 and then going freelance, the opposite is what is working for most designers now. Social Media and talking about their design work, instead of the work speaking for itself, is giving people opportunity and allowing them to be discovered. Using Spec Work to get access to people and resources is working in people’s favor instead of turning into horror stories left and right.
In short, unconventional methods, will keep you from being lumped with everyone else. Use your creative problem solving skills and create and opportunity where only a problem existed.
