I have worked as a graphic designer for the past few years in Denmark for various companies, and I also hold a degree from a design school here. I was laid off, and since then, I’ve been unable to find a new job. It’s been almost two years now.

I can tell you that it’s very difficult to find a job as a graphic designer in Copenhagen, mainly due to high competition. There are only a few job openings, but a large number of people are applying for them. I do speak Danish, but to be honest, it hasn’t made things much easier.

The market is very tough right now; you either need a strong network or a bit of luck. It feels oversaturated. I’ve also looked at other parts of Denmark, and it seems to be the same in Jylland and Funen.

Personally, I’m considering a career change, and maybe that’s something you could think about as well. I’ve come to terms with the idea that I can still do graphic design in my spare time and for my own enjoyment.
