We recognize the fact that you know how to choose the right font, how to kern type, now to turn a concept into a compelling mark. But, this is not about design. This is about how to survive as a designer. For instance, how do you find a job? How do you know an opportunity is right for you? How will you work with people who don't really know what they're doing or a client who simply doesn't like your choice in footwear? Leave these questions unanswered and the only design work you'll be doing is on your own resume.
