Summary
Too often a design or architecture degree is seen as a means to an end (a job in an established practice). But imagine for one moment that there are no employers, no firms to send your CV to, no interviews to be had. How would you forge your own path after graduation? Perhaps you are not a graduate at all. The most ingenious and driven designers have found ways of making opportunities for themselves across the creative disciplines-ways you can learn from too. 'Don't Get a Job' celebrates the various strategies that the next generation of creatives are taking to gain exposure, while also including interviews and inspirational advice from those who are now enjoying success.
