My Advice is change ur portfolio.Include more examples,divide it into several sections-like clients,projects,typography, cloth design etc.Then u will get more attention.also visit websites for graduates ,type in google graphic design agencies in NI and send a copy of ur CV to all of them .
All the best with ur search. Ves V3SDesign: Graphic Design & 3D Animation |

Hey,
I saw your posting and understand your situation, as I deal with it on a daily basis! It is cruel that you have spent so long studying, only to discover that what employers' really seem to want is experience. Anyhow, I just wanted to let you know about Creative Protege, it's a company that dedicates its time to help inexperienced grads secure work experience. Check us out at Creative Protege Ltd, I'm sure we can do something. Adam |
