First year student FAQs
Meet Lizzie
I’m working as a graphic designer and illustrator at a local studio. I got this job in my second last year at uni. Doing practical assignments and assessments were a big help in me getting a job before graduating. Not only having that portfolio of work to take to the interview, but the support I got from teachers and other students meant I was confident in my work and selling myself as an employee.
