In all honesty, do employers really pay great attention to your actual designs when reviewing a portfolio or do they mostly look at the ability to communicate your ideas? I guess the reason I’m asking this is because I know my graphics, layout, cad skills, photoshop skills, 3D skills etc are pretty good but I feel like my designs are not that great. My professors have always liked my graphics and layouts but when it came to the actual design, I was something average. Even in Construction, I have great CAD work but sometimes the pieces don’t work out on detailing the complicated stuff. Keep in mind I have only recently graduated with my B.S. and I am fresh out of school looking for a job. I want to know if employers prefer strong graphic skills and the ability to be fluid in the computer software as opposed to the actual design being that he will be looking at student work. Thanks guys.
