    Moved to a new city...now I need a part-time job to get started because new clients and money don't fall from the sky and painting all day doesn't pay the rent of a future atelier immediately...

    Looking for some vacancies for the last few days and today I suddenly remembered LinkedIn...holy shit!

    I had like 20 vacancies at several universities all around Germany that matched my profile...wow!
    Unfortunately, nothing where I live.

    The only vacancy that interested me had 129 applicants...LOL!

    After more than 20 years since I last worked in an agency, I started to consider it but every time I read the job requisites I get fucking nervous and think that I don't fit.

    I really don't have a working rhythm right now, spent the last 20 years doing freelance jobs, odd jobs, murals, web design, graffiti workshops...having fun.

    Has anyone some advice?

    • All I can say is disregard the number of applicants, a lot of incompetents out there. And don't worry over requirements as long as you trust you can do the job.spl33nidoru
    • dribbble sounds interesting but i really don't have relevant design projects for the last three years.oey_oey
    • @shape...what is that?
      @spl33nidoru...I guess you're right. I think I suffer from low confidence and I'm unsure as I've been out of the game

    • Try to pick one specialism and work on that. The other things you’ve done can help as influences for that.Chimp
