bouncyboy Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 wombat, my mom is the director of new product marketing for Ameritech/SBC too. Maybe she can hook you up, that is if you wouldn't mind working for Ameritech? Let me know, I will ask her and get a fax number or address for you to send your resume to.------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beroshima Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 The market is very tight right now for graphic designers, especially with a lot of the dot.coms folding. I have a lot of friends who are designers also, and many of them are changing careers it's so bad. The advice i'd say is to use your connections as much as you can - the competition is fierce for everything out there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
