Very challenging, because y'all must always have something fresh and unique to offer, and at that place are a lot of people you lot 'compete' with so if you lot have a same idea as someone, it could probably mean that your idea is common.
Stressful, with but a small time given before the deadline, y'all must already have your research, concept and execution done.

Nearly my college education: My grade for me is quite challenging. I didn't expect that it would require a lot of skills. For example, yous demand rendering skills for your Arts and Color subject; Technical skills for graphics related subjects; modeling skills for model & construction form; and of grade a wild imagination for all your plates and projects that you lot need to submit within a week. Though information technology is difficult, I enjoyed it considering I like building and making stuff. When I graduated, I wished that I've given more effort to my plates because when you look back, its so much fun to do. Being in this course is as well expensive. Too ownership coloring materials which costs quite a fortune already, you demand to purchase all those modeling stuff like resin, styrofoam, foamboard, mighty bond etc.
My current task: I am a freelance Graphic Artist & Business adult female
Am I using what I learned in college: Really for me, its really different when y'all're already working. They say that you learn the near outside your schoolhouse. Its true, I learned a lot in the company where I used to work. Notwithstanding, regarding the things that im using that I learned in UST, I must say that learning well-nigh the different materials for products (rattan, types of papers, resin, styrofoam, metallic, woods etc) gave me an edge. I can immediately distinguish what kind of materials I could use, I dont need to ask anybody near it. Our professors taught united states a lot when it comes to materials and processes. Also, things such as creating displays and models are very handy in the visual merchandising section.
How long did information technology take to find a job: I got my first interview afterward a solar day of submitting my resume to the visitor. Then I got accepted and stayed there for 2 ane/2 years.
Exercise I recommend studying Fine Arts major in Industrial Blueprint: Yes! Really, you can find a lot of industrial design related jobs in other countries such as Singapore and Europe. Here in the Philippines, I call up there are quite a few jobs. Only every bit an industrial designer, you could also take advertizing jobs like what I did. It actually depends on what yous really desire as your job. For me, I like graphic design, and so even though I didnt take an Advert form, I can still do it because I love using Photoshop. Its really up to you. The bacon level depends also on the company. But if yous work equally an industrial designer, the income is college than graphic artists.
