4. Best Ideas
Networking (Practical Idea): Stay in touch
with people who can help him, even if he has
just met them. Talk to friends, classmates,
family, teachers, people he trust. This way,
they’ll know about his situation and tell him
about opportunities. He should also leave
posts on church, club and places where he
meet new people and show his job.
Anyway, he must update his cv, in order to
show something updated to get the new job.
5. Best Ideas
Enterprising (Favorite Idea): Be hired in not the
only solution. Try to have his own business can
look more challenging, but it’s something to
consider. He can make his own opportunities.
For that, he should study, visit the local
enterprising office, understand the political
and economic situation, talk to people and
identify local and macro needs.
Also, calculate the amount of money he
would need to invest.
6. Prototype 1 – Mister L Blog
A blog in which he puts his cv, his portfolio
and links to his social networks, so he can
show his experience and keep in touch
with people who might help him.
He will be able to show who he is in a
creative way, what is important for a
graphic designer, and also interact to
people on the web.
