About me

Hello!

I am a recent graduate from the University of Sunderland with a 2:1BA(Hons) degree in Graphic Communication and Design.

I really enjoyed my three years at Sunderland and have a good working knowledge of In Design, Creative Suite and an equivalent of Freehand, as well as other design packages. I am now excited at the prospect of joining the design industry and really experiencing the working environment and utilizing the skills I have acquired.
I am extremely versatile, with a fantastic work ethic and I work very well under pressure.

An example of a time that I had to work under pressure was for my final major project (worth 60% of my final degree). Five weeks before the deadline, my student house was burgled and I lost the previous five months of work that I had for the project. I also lost my back-ups of my three years of Uni work. However, I still managed to restart and complete it with only a ten day extension and I achieved a first class award for that project.
I also have excellent time management and organisational skills. I am used to working independently, but also contribute well in a team project.
I am currently living in Troon, Scotland, but I would be very willing to relocate, and I am available for an immediate start.

This shows a wide range of my skills and I am happy to attend for interview where I can show you my complete portfolio.

If my application for this particular job is unsuccessful, I would still like to be considered for future placement opportunities or graduate jobs that may become available, as I would really like to gain some experience in the design industry.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Thank you!

Carol Mackillop
