You're creative and imaginative. You can draw, paint, visualize, and conceptualize. Ideas come to you easily and you can communicate your ideas through design.

You want to be a professional designer and work in an industry such as graphic design, advertising, print, web design, or multimedia production design. You want to be the best you can be, nothing less will do. A routine office life is not for you, you'd rather work in a creative environment full of exciting energy and forward-thinking ideas.

You're a self-motivated and creative spirit. You have the will and discipline to succeed. You take pride in your work. You're meticulous. You have an open mind and can work with other creative people. You can give 100% to realize the vision and needs of a client or your creative director, which often means working and reworking a design until your client is satisfied with it. You produce your finest work under pressure, and you don't mind crazy hours.

A professional designer experiences a great variety of work - few design projects are ever the same. A designer is part of a team of people who must all collaborate in the best interests of their client's product. Deadlines are a constant part of the mix.
