Review :
This comprehensive book is a must-read for any graphic design student. The insights and career tools provided bring clarity to students trying to find their place in the design profession. This compelling collection of essays-on what comes after one graduates with a degree in graphic design-is told through numerous testimonials from recent graphic design graduates and professional designers. It offers numerous suggestions (helpful tips) on choosing a career path within design, to applying for a job, how to present a great portfolio, getting hired among others. An excellent book for any current graphic design student. This is a book that certainly delivers on its promise. Ideal for any design student or graduate who will find it useful, interesting and engaging as they embark on transitioning out of education into the big wide world and into industry. Packed full of good solid practical advice, backed up by contributors from industry and the experiences of those who have successfully made the journey into industry. The case studies, which are very usefully critiqued, will prove invaluable to those trying to put together their own portfolios and applications. All in all, a great resource to have to hand.
