What is the state of the creative job market today? How can I find and land my dream job during the pandemic? Chris do and Petrula Vrontikis will discuss the creative job market during this time and how you can take action.

Petrula Vrontikis is a graphic designer and a full-time professor at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena California. She's authored a number of online professional practice courses including freelancing and presentation skills. As an educator, her goal is to prepare young designers for what will be expected of them both creatively and professionally. Petrula is also an education and content contributor for The Futur.

In this episode, we'll talk about:
How employers are changing and what they are looking for
Applying for a job, when is the best time?
Tips on nailing the virtual interview
The importance of virtual team collaboration
Much more...

Everybody's got some excuse for why they can’t move ahead.
“My work’s not good enough.”
“The timing just isn't right.”
“I don’t have the courage.”
“I am never going to get there.”

Fear of the unknown can keep us stuck, both personally and professionally. But nothing is going to get you farther along than deeply understanding who you are, what an employer needs and the process to make that connection.

Sure, they may see your great work, but they’re unsure how long it took you to get there. They don't know if you are a great team member, a generous collaborator, and ultimately, if you can do your very best under pressure.

You have to take the time to understand the process—otherwise, you’ll never know where you might have gone wrong in the past.
