I’m a graphic designer with 3+ years of experience, mainly in branding and UI design. Now I'm exploring opportunities abroad. I’m curious about what companies usually look for when considering international candidates, like specific skills, certifications, or portfolio requirements. I’d also appreciate tips on where to find legitimate opportunities and how to avoid scams.

Thanks so much in advance for sharing your advice!

Hi all
I started out as a graphic designer. Worked for about 4yrs in different roles. Then i started a digital design role for 2 yrs and then made my transition into ux. i have been in a ux role for 5 years. But i want to steer my career towards something more creative. Like in 5-10 years I wouldn’t want to be a specialist or a ux director. I d like to be an art director or creative director. I love branding & marketing but also product. Would love something that allows me to do both?
