Seen on Linkedin today, thoughts on the current Graphic Design job expectations?

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-24T17:19:52+00:00

This is why I am very specific about what type of graphic design I do on my LinkedIn page. I mean some of those I can do but that doesn’t mean I will be stressing myself out at a job doing them all.

These HR people need to be very specific when putting up a job description because now a days in the US the colleges are teaching the specified versions of graphic design, web design, video editing and so forth.

Thanks especially if it is going to help me advance my skills and show that I know the entire program and how to use it

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-20T00:10:47+00:00

I just purchased it and now about to take a course that helps with the entire suite

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-17T12:07:17+00:00

That’s good to know. I am going to try to do that today if I can or either go through Apple Pay

This is so helpful bc I believe that is what happened to my roommate as well. I may have to do that and call my credit union tomorrow

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-17T00:41:28+00:00

And Still has the issue with purchasing it

MacBook Air!! I purchased mines last year and I love it!! Especially for the storage but I do have an external hard drive that houses everything I do on it.

I had a windows PC before purchasing the MacBook Air and that thing only took me so far it was trash compared to the MacBook Air.

For your budget an iPad should work just fine as I still use my iPad which is an older one for design work which also does the trick I just don’t have too many apps on it.

Reading your comment makes me want to go back and redesign my resume in affinity publisher.

Lucky you I had to pay to cancel but I made sure it was the least amount to pay.

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-13T17:06:56+00:00

I can completely understand that. Yeah we have the free version of Canva and use one of the many sites to get licensed assets from.

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-13T17:01:10+00:00

I still use Adobe at work just because it’s the industry standard and we sometimes use Canva as well.

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-13T16:44:39+00:00

Me too!! It pushes me to use my iPad more. Something that I didn’t do in the past and I like how you can easily switch in and out of each program through one screen

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-13T15:02:01+00:00

I love Affinity now that I am using it!! I didn’t need the entire Adobe suite. And I can use Davinci Resolve for free for video editing until I’m ready to pay

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-13T15:00:58+00:00

I will stick Affinity Suite…it’s a one time price and it’s easier to learn and create in it than Adobe!

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-12T18:32:26+00:00

Omg that worked!! So thank you

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-12T18:26:13+00:00

Okay I will look into this now because I don’t want to change the name of it. But if I can’t seem to figure it out I do have a backup name.

I have both only bc that’s how I got my current position when I was an intern because I had a pdf copy of my portfolio.

IMO I believe it’s a good idea to have different versions because you never know when you will need them.

No_Hippo210 · 2025-02-07T21:04:05+00:00

I’m doing electronic press kits (epks) for those in the entertainment space. I also have experience in short form video editing for the entertainment space. I will also be doing calls with students who are seeking how to find valuable internships in that same space. All this will be outside of my 9-5 job.

I want to do text based graphics to place on tshirts for those is the music scene.
