Basically for the past 4 months (on and off) I've been looking to get a job that has something related to graphic design. Besides having gone to school for Fine Arts I have no experience in the digital design world. Could I still get a job with a graphics company? I am not goin to school this semester and I'm working as a copy center associate for OfficeMax. This job has a very small relation to what I actually want to do, or should I say pretty much non-existent.
Any tips for me? I've pretty much asked every local design company in my city that I could find. I wrote them E-mails askin' for intern positions but no avail. I've signed up for, pretty much every job site, but the "design" category is always limited and if one does show up, it's for very experienced positions. I've done freelance work but that's only been for my my brother's web design company. I'm thankful for them since it's the only work i've done in the field.
What do you guys think? Should I just work my retail job till I go back to school? I don't want to write this off as a failed goal... but due to my lack of experience and education I guess there's no other option?
Opinions, suggestions, experiences all welcome. Thanks
