    I think others said it, it pretty much comes down to marketing yourself effectively. No one needs to know that all you did was project manage signage projects if you have some solid work that points in the direction you want to take your career. Add some freelance or self-initiated work if need be.

    Now in terms of salary - 65k, jeez guys it's not that much is it? I earned almost that much less than a year into my first real job. Of course, it seems like there is more money in interactive than print as you said, unless you are working for a big agency.

    • yeah, 65k is not much. but i guess that is based on overall experience. it took me at least 5-6 years to get to that honestly.lvl_13
