Ok, so as meer little fish in the recent design graduate fishbowl i was lurking around this lovely digital place of words and advice. I was compelled to post, for of course... i need advice!
The design industry is like a really hard chocolate eclair. I know i will have to offer myself on a plate, potentially for nothing, this does not phase me though.
The question that i ask to you is.. how well, cheeky can you be with regards to asking for a placement, internship or even a job. I have a rather quirky idea up my sleeve. Do agencies like having business cards sent in an unusual manner to them? Can you use brash, blunt humour? Or would you just throw it away? Would you bother with a student if they had really good design skills? Or would you prefer something with experience?
I suppose this is like every other generic *I am a graduate, help me!* post. I know i have what it takes, but i am a little lost in this new found world. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thankyouu!
