HRM Assignment 2 - future job

My envisioned future job…Ü

For our second assignment in HRM we were tasked to develop a job description for a job we want to hold in the future.
I really find this assignment interesting because I am free to imagine myself on the future. haha Actually when I first read of this assignment, there were so many kinds of jobs that popped onto my head. It’s fun to imagine things specially what will you become in the future but it is more fun and fulfilling when you actually bring this to reality. Yeah!

It’s hard for me to choose one specific job I want for the future because there’s a lot of jobs that comes out of my mind. Hehe.. So many IT related jobs I had thought and some are not. Even before taking up this course I have always thought of myself as an IT professional. hAha But there are many kinds of job available for an IT professional. I can’t actually think of one specific job but I somewhat want to see myself in the future with a job in the line of graphics designing. From those two it’s pretty much obvious that I like things in line with arts and designs.

I looked for definitions of the jobs I wanted to hold in the future and these are the following:

“Graphic Design jobs involve working with employees (in-house) or external customers to create, printed collateral, web design layouts, banners, advertisements and many other high quality designs.Duties generally include using desktop publishing and other specialized computer software to design, organize, and prepare a variety of text, illustrative and graphics materials, and perform related tasks as determined to be necessary.A Degree in Art, Marketing, Graphic Design and/or Visual Communications, or equivalent work experience is usually required. Graphic Design jobs tend to require experience in project planning, computer proficiency, knowledge of the production process, excellent communication skills, and the ability to work individually or in a group setting. A good eye for typography, proficiency on both a PC and MAC platforms and a high level of knowledge in multiple design programs are a plus. “

“Graphic designers—or graphic artists—plan, analyze, and create visual solutions to communications problems. They find the most effective way to get messages across in print, electronic, and film media using a variety of methods such as color, type, illustration, photography, animation, and various print and layout techniques. Graphic designers develop the overall layout and production design of magazines, newspapers, journals, corporate reports, and other publications. They also produce promotional displays, packaging, and marketing brochures for products and services, design distinctive logos for products and businesses, and develop signs and signage systems—called environmental graphics—for business and government. An increasing number of graphic designers also develop material for Internet Web pages, interactive media, and multimedia projects. Graphic designers also may produce the credits that appear before and after television programs and movies.”

Just from the description of what is a graphic designer, I became more interested and eager of becoming one (hope so!). If I am to have this job I would really enjoy doing it in service of the clients I would have in the future (Can’t wait of “that” future) hehe. To be a graphic designer you must have patience and perseverance of what you are doing because developing a method of designing requires much time, attention and hard work for it to produce a good and efficient work of art. But before I could become one, this time as a student I should of course do well on my studies and learn in advance of different softwares and methods on how to create excellent designs. I believe the future lies on our own hands and guided by our Heavenly Father.

I think that’s all for this assignment post.

Thank you for reading!! God Bless!! Ü
