Interview Tips
|
|
BRAND yourself! What is YOUR identity? |
|
There are a million other designers just as good…or better. What separates YOU from the pack? Again…Brand yourself. RESUME – make it brief and specific to the job and company you’re courting. |
|
SPELL CHECK - if you have a typo on ANYTHING you submit, you will NOT get the interview. Have a friend or spouse review your materials as well. |
|
Online Portfolio If you’re applying for a web design job, then your portfolio site better be tight and full of bells and whistles. Using the latest in all technologies. If you’re a print designer, it should at least be creative, simple and easy. Please check all the links on your site. Nothing worse than broken links. It’s like having a TYPO! Pretty please, don’t make me download any fancy plug-ins. Because I won’t! Flash will do. Last but NOT LEAST…Don’t present a portfolio website that is branded as a freelance site. Unless you’re applying for freelance work. You may come off as a competitor or cocky. It’s a fine line. Don’t walk it. An employer wants you to be dedicated to them, not out moonlighting and “burning the midnight oil”! |

Portfolio Samples Not too much, but just right. People don’t have time to go through your entire life’s work. . Just pick out the BEST work.12-14 pieces is a good number. NOTE. Pick samples that; you love, you get excited about, you can speak about. START and END with GREAT samples. Be strategic. Bring a sketch book or process book. Show employers how you work. |
