Two laugh reactions. Bad time to be a creative?

Id suggest her to start her own design studio. Help her bring clients. The start maybe slow but long term consequence is she won’t be at the mercy of bad job market and unreliable agencies. She’ll be very Independent.

Totally agree

We’ve seen bad job markets before. For those of us old enough to remember, they come and go quite regularly. It’s a very good idea for her to do freelance if she can, because even when she does get a job, she can have side freelance work and thus money to put away and save for the next bad job market.

She needs to get an internship and then make sure she is so invaluable they hire her. That’s about the only way to break into the biz these days.

Which SCAD location?

Came to ask this. Where does she live? Does she have a specific industry vertical she can narrow down on?

Where will she be based when done with school? Scad is great school and I’ve worked with different kinds of creatives and producers who went there. For design, studio positions are a great way to get in if she’s fast knows variety of programs, can design in google slides as well, INDD, PS, Keynote, animate is a plus but not mandatory. I’d be open to taking a look.

Help! If I'm going to fall off the healthy eating wagon, it is most likely between 3 and 4 pm. I believe it is normal for blood sugar to dip at this time which may be why cravings are strong.
