Hello All, I graduated from school about a year ago and have been working as a independent freelance web designer. I am in the process of doing some career planning and would really appreciate all of your feedback, as I would imagine there also many other people out there like me.
Basically, I received a design education (BFA @ The School of Visual Arts) and have been a tinkerer in Web Design since high school (1998). Since then, I have followed new technology, studied and learned new web programming, worked in a small interactive/communications design studio, and have been trying to learn all I can about careers in Interaction and Digital Design. My goal for September is to be starting my career at an Interactive Studio or Agency in New York or San Francisco. My Questions are: 1. What Interactive Job titles should I be applying for? or which are most suitable for someone with 1-2 years of professional experience in Basic Programming and Front End Web Development? 2. Can you recommend any studios in NY or SF that would be good to start a career in Interaction Design. 3. What professional and technical skills should be built upon before applying to a Studio that works in Interaction design (web site design, mobile applications, user interface, and interactive media.) Thanks in advance for everyone's help! Best, Matt ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)! To post to this list .......
