Daily Duties at Design Work Place:
I was responsible for the following: meeting with the cleint, reviewing needs/ wishes, taking that information and working out a space plan and/or design concept for review, once it was approved I would usually create a 3-D model to show the clients as well as work out design logistics and start picking preliminary finishes, once that was approved I would create complete construction documents which would include finalized architectural finishes, then send them out to bidding contractors, concurrently I would work on the furniture selection and fabric selection for the furniture that was to go in the project. Once construction started, i would conduct the contract administration and work with the selected contractor and oversee construction. Weekly job site meeting would occur to review progress of construction. I would take care of any clerical that was needed and answer any questions the contractor might have regarding construction/ problems that may arise. Also, I was responsible for some in-house graphic design, web design and any computer related problems in office (that were an easy fix). I would oversee my junior colleagues and help them work on their projects and answer any questions regarding AutoCAD, Sketch Up, Photoshop, etc. I also worked on the furniture procurement using a program called Giza.
What they like about Design Work Place:
You give high priority to hiring firms with prestige. Market reputation and prestige of a firm may be determined through on-line research, and conversations with individuals working in your target industry. Note that firms "in the public eye" receive a great deal more critical publicity and attention than those operating with more anonymity. So as you assess your employment opportunities, be sure to seek out the positive aspects of the firm's reputation in addition to noting negative publicity the company may have received.
