Even though my main role is as a designer, part of my job involves doing some clerical tasks that help keep the team organized. For instance, I’m responsible for organizing and naming files properly, keeping track of client feedback, and managing schedules to make sure everything stays on track. These may not seem directly related to design, but I’m finding that they are important because being organized with files and feedback makes it easier to refer back to client requests and avoid mistakes in future revisions. This experience has also taught me that in a small team, everyone needs to pitch in to help things run smoothly, and this might mean doing a bit of admin work. Now, I see that time management and organization are as important as design skills, and these are skills I’ll need to develop further, especially if I ever want to work as a freelancer or manage my own projects in the future.
