Time stamp information:
- (07:41) How do you overcome imposter syndrome when starting your job?
- (08:24) I'm going to be a new designer going into the field after getting married, my partners job often has us relocate to different states semi- often. How do I search for jobs and communicate my situation without making myself seem like a weakness/ liability?
- (10:56) What is the best way to deal with not being graded for the first time? (i.e. how do you measure success without a letter grade?)
- (12:22) Can you talk about the equipment you use in your line of work? For starters, laptop vs desktop? Mouse vs trackpad? Etc.
- (17:22)What are some good goals to set when starting out in your first year of work?
- (19:17) How do you guys go about, deal with, and take the next step after making a costly design mistake at your job?
- (22:55) What are some projects that you were not sure about taking on, but you're glad you did because it turned out cool/the experience was great?
- (25:15) How do you deal with disappointments and failures in your career, with yourself and clients you might be working with?
- How do you deal with disappointments in your career? When something doesn't go perfect I take it very personally, how do you get over the disappointment?
- (26:29) Is it OK to add your own personal touch to a piece that some believe should be done a certain way? (something personal like a mark or a shape that only the artist would know or even realize was there.)
- (30:09) What does your typical work flow look like and do you work on more than one project at a time?
- (33:00) For someone pursuing a career in graphic design, what are employers looking for in a portfolio? How many different projects should be included? Do employers want to see sketches/before and afters? Is there such thing as too much in a portfolio? Is creating your own website to display your work better than some of the portfolio building apps (apps such as Behance)?
- (35:49) What will my first day on the job be like?
- (37:22) I love my job, and the co-workers and benefits are great, but im feeling bored. What should I do?
- (39:44) I’m ready to change jobs. How do I go about scheduling interviews while still working at my current job?
- (41:40) I’m a design student discouraged by my professors’ negative talk of the profession. So I want to ask you: do love the work, why? and how to stay motivated and driven?
- (45:34) What should I expect my boss to talk about in my first year review?
- (47:22) How should I address my superiors at work?
- (48:19) I see a lot of job listings that only mention Canva as their main program. I find that program very limiting both creatively and aesthetically. Do I just apply for these jobs so I can get a paycheck and experience or do I hold out for a job that is more in the world of adobe products?
- (51:38) How do you give critique that is honest, but not hurtful?
- (53:29) What are the top three things new designers should be really good at?
