Work Experience Barrier

Creative Lives in Progress

How to stand out when you're starting out

Not having tons of work experience can feel like a barrier to putting yourself out there. This is where personal projects become a great way to show your niche and what you want to do more of. No matter how big or small, they often make a portfolio far more exciting and memorable, since you’re showing work you feel passionate about.

I have some work experience within the field, but I still worry because I don't feel like it's enough work. I want to work in the sports industry, but I need more internships that fall under that field of design. Although I have work that can fall under logo design, web design, and promotional campaigns.
