Difficulties about this job? • New graphic designers face the most criticism • Perfectionism: Allows a graphic designer to do her best work but can also hold a designer back by forcing the designer to take excessive time to complete a project and making the designer more hesitant to take risks. • Expectations: Clients do not always explain their desires clearly, and making corrections afterward takes more effort and time than getting the project accepted the first time • Deadlines often run tight. • Producing quality work takes time. • Rushing a project will likely be returned for corrections.
