Difficulties about this job? New graphic designers face the most criticism Perfectionism: Allows a graphic designer to do her best

work but can also hold a designer back by forcing the designer to take excessive time to complete a project and making the designer more hesitant to take risks.

Expectations: Clients do not always explain their desires clearly, and making corrections afterward takes more effort and time than getting the project accepted the first time

Deadlines often run tight. Producing quality work takes time. Rushing a project will likely be returned for corrections.

What I like about designing

“It’s fun how different designs can be interpreted in different ways also how the outcome of the project comes about from a simple idea in your head. I like designing something with cool technology that has come a long way.”
