Hire Education

Portfolio Reviews with the Pros
Saturday, April 25, 2009 from 9 am to 4 pm
George Pearl Hall, School of Architecture and Planning
University of New Mexico Campus
Sponsored by AIGA New Mexico

Finding the right design position is a tough job. AIGA New Mexico is making it easier for graphic design students throughout the state. We invite you to gather for a tip-filled day specifically addressing the agony and the ecstasy of entering the job market. Our ad hoc faculty of local, professional designers will review your portfolios, providing valuable suggestions to enliven your presentation and identifying your strengths and areas for improvement.

Hire Education is open to students majoring in graphic design at colleges throughout New Mexico. We will accept juniors, seniors, and recent graduates with prepared portfolios first. If there is room, we will also welcome students without portfolios who would like to observe the reviews and participate in the breakout sessions.

Our faculty of professional designers represents a wide range of expertise, years in the field, and types of experience in the industry. Some are owners of graphic design firms; some work as junior and senior designers; some are art directors; some are freelancers. They know what they're talking about.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to jumpstart your career. Sign up for Hire Education today.
