I came across your advertisement for a graphic artist, and would like to submit my resume and application for the graphic artist and designer position.  I did some research on the company and was fascinated with the worked done. I would love to be apart of the group of designers for freeze.

After having reviewed your requirements I believe that my skills and work experience match them. I am major in Graphic Designing and I have gain experience in general design,visual art, and advertising design. I have a great creativity and communication to explore great projects. Always work to the best of the time given and to meet deadlines. I have the ability to work well in  groups or teams and most important independently. Working under pressure is a big quality for all graphic designers and i certainly meet this requirement. Working with Adobe programs and being able to pick the best fonts, colors to create well combine work is also part of a few of my skills. I also have the ability to adapt to new technology and software as well as new ideas of work.

Thank you for taking your time looking into my resume and for your consideration.

sincerely

Christopher Martinez

In the Graphic Design field there is a high level of competition.  Many are the requirements to work as a graphic designer.Five or more years of experience in the field, a well organized portfolio and ability to adapt to new technologies are just a few of the basic wants for this field. Many companies ask for knowledge in software like cs6 suite. As for photo editing there are very similar requirements others are photography skills.

“The ideal candidate will be proficient with InDesign and other industry standard graphic and related web tools. Knowledge and experience with effective layout, mechanical s, and type specifications, and experience with electronic publishing is essential.”   Web design also plays a big part in the world of Graphic Design as it one of the most important requirements needed.

I believe i have some knowledge in CS6 suite but still need to learn a lot more. Web design is also one of my next interest to become a web designer. There are many more skills that are required to be successful. The Graphic design world involves a lot of freelancing at first in order to gain experience. Building a great portfolio after receiving  reviews and making changes helps companies the way you improve from past projects.
