Lead Graphics Designer

As a fine-art professional I see myself as having strong communication skills and the ability to communicate difficult design concepts in simple artistic terms. My training techniques in my previous job reduced the studying time for new graphic design software by 60%.

When going to the interview it is a good idea to have as much backdrop knowledge of the company as you can. Knowing precisely what they do and other details will make an impression to the employer and show them that you take initiative and you have an interest in the company.

In any company, the graphic designer cannot be working independently and not in consonance with the rest of the marketing and advertising bodies. It is vital to ask this question so as to ensure that you are hiring someone who can easily communicate and get along with other people. Thinks might get extreme when your creative team or ad agency attempts to communicate its advertisement ideas to a person who is unwilling to be receptive. Such difficulties often might lead to a dysfunctional and non cooperative team and will eventually lead to the loss of both time and money.

I gained an honor Bachelor Degree from Academy of Arts in Fine and Digital Arts Studies. I have 5 years experience working in graphic arts, with the last 2 years as lead multimedia designer residing over a team of 4 colleagues. My achievements have gained me several promotions from my first position as junior graphic designer.

In my previous job I replaced a lead designer who fell to manage a difficult art project. I pride myself in my ability to manage, focus and motivate staff. I set the staff goals and gave them a new focus and finished the project on time.

In my experience, joint efforts produce better results than an equal number of mutually exclusive staff. Though, I have worked alone and in a team and I enjoy both challenges. My preference is governed by which method provides the best solution to the task in hand.

I would like to be a part of a company that is technologically driven and always looking towards the future. I would like to gain experience in an innovative business that has stayed ahead of the competition by foreseeing changes in the modern market.

Individuals respond to criticism in various ways, some listen to the criticism and attempt to improve on the work that has been done, some turn a blind ear to criticism and then are a select few who cannot accept criticism and take it very personally. While hiring a graphic designer you should make sure that you hire someone who can accept constructive criticism and learn from his or her mistakes. The candidates answer will give you an insight into his or her self awareness and levels of honesty. In any event, sometimes it is nice to have a head strong designer who is unwilling to step aside from his or her beliefs.

I find constructive criticism a way of objectively analyzing at my work. I try to look for the positive inside any criticism.
