Its see you later… not goodbye. Rookie Designer will be taking a 3 month hiatus. In that time I will be assessing my situation and making the final decision about whether this podcast will continue on after the break. This is a real episode though. One of the new trends out there is to make a simplified One Page Portfolio. We’ll talk about what it takes to make one and why you might want to. We’ll also touch upon strategies for collecting your files for output and working with the printer.

As I eluded to in the podcast, there were some problems with the Rookie Designer feed that resulted in this podcast being kicked out of the iTunes Music Store for a time. I fixed the problem and resubmitted the feed, but it took the iTunes people a while to get it integrated back in. Now you can finally search for it again and actually come up with the results you’re looking for. Thank you everyone for your patience!!

Its that time again… job hunting time. In this episode I’ll share my most recent experiences with a new staffing agency and a particularly in-depth and good interview I completed, along with some pointers for making that first impression with a potential employer a good one. An update on the status of the podcast is also in this show.

Rookie Mistake Tip:

Although there are services out there like staffing agencies and schools that claim to help or take on the burden of placing you in a career job, trust yourself. You can rely only on yourself to put forth the maximum effort to land that dream job, and hey, if they’re looking too that’s double the exposure for you in your search.
