The graphic design market has been very competitive for years, but the past 20 years have witnessed some of the most seismic changes in the graphic design landscape. The entry of new computer technology has changed the nature of how many graphic designers work. Graphic design as a discipline and profession has evolved in parallel with the development of computer graphic software. Many graphic designers now take work that does not require the full skillset of a graphic designer and use this to market their personal services or enter into freelance work. With the advent of the internet, freelance graphic designers can easily and quickly set up a business, to target the ever growing need for designers.

The key, however, is to ensure you have the right skills. Graphic designers require a special set of skills to get a job well done. If you're eager to find some career success in the graphic design sector, you're going to have to prove your talent and your worth over and over again.
