Hey guys,

I am currently trapped in a dead end job that is melting my brain. Although I have learnt a lot of skills here, the place has gone completely down hill.

My skills and qualifications are as follows:

- Cert IV in Graphic Design
- Diploma in Graphic Design
- Prevalent skills in all Adobe Creative programs (photoshop, illustrator, indesign)
- Web design (design only, training to build)
- 3D modelling/design
- Illustration
- Corporate design
- Sales
- SEO/Adwords/PSA
- Project management/Account management
- Great customer service
- Over 3 years experience

If anyone knows of anything, please let me know. I am currently updating my portfolio so any leads would be awesome.

Regards,
Ben

Send me a link to your portfolio when you're done pulling it together.
You must currently be at a pretty small shop if the last 4 things are expected of you as a designer?
Not that having those in your hat is a bad thing - shows you understand the influences behind business decisions.

I'm at Webfirm at the moment, they didn't used to be small but the company is shrinking significantly. I am currently in an Account Management role, but need to be back doing design where my passion is.

I would need to elaborate on the list a little more, as I quickly noted a few things down.
