Entry Level Jobs

I researched entry level jobs as a graphic designer and discovered that you must be proficient in programs like adobe illustrator and photoshop. Most of these jobs also require you to have a general knowledge of computers and an artistic ability. You also would need to be able to work under weekly deadlines and you would need to be able to juggle multiple projects. Many of these entry level positions seem to pay around 10 dollars. 

The requirements seem to be that you need to be very self-motivated, creative and able to comply with deadlines. And you need to have the knowledge of the programs used (photoshop and illustrator).

There are many other jobs in the world that make use of the same tools and technology that graphic designers use such as animators, web designers and UI designers. These jobs just seem to take what graphic designers use and add a more specific concentration to it. Some of these jobs compared to the entry level graphic design jobs pay much better, in the 20.00 to 40.00 per an hour range.   

Many of the entry level graphic design jobs that I have seen on job search websites seem located in New York, Florida, California, Georgia and Texas.
