MY FIST WORK EXPERIENCE
My name is HY Dola. This is my Blog that I want to share of my knowledge to all the students and people who want to know about computer & technology. And to all of you who just beginning study in IT and want to get more and more. Also I would like to say very thankful that visit my blog . Please share to other if you think that is a good blog.
First of all, I would like to thank to my family that support me to study at the SETEC University and always lift the spirit on me all the time. Second, I would like to thanks to all the lecturers and internship department in the SETEC University that help me to finding a real working environment for me.
Finally, thanks to Digital Advertising Company that allowed me to work till my internship program success.
Cambodia is one of the developing countries including culture, civilization, art, religion, tourist, and economic are increase everyday. And nowadays a lot of company are growing in our country and in a number of the students are graduated every year, but numerous of them are unemployed. There are a lot of reasons in this case. First, they are not qualified. Second, job opportunities in the city are not balance with graduated students. There are a lot of products but there is no market. Third, the social environment is not promoting them to learn. Employment is an ultimate objective for university students, in the same time the SETEC University have to make the program to help to find the job for the entire students that call “INTERNSHIP PROGRAM”. This is the best programs that help the students try to study and try to research on the internet about the new style and what the society need or the organization, company finding the resources for their organization or their company. Suddenly it is the best time that the Internship Department that help me to apply in the position as a designer in the Digital Advertising for training work while I am studying in the fourth year, too.
During the four months where I work in this company for internship program I found plentiful of things that I have experienced. I think it is very important in later part of my working career. The working is very different we studying in the class. Because in the class we just listen and write-down what the lecture speaks or note what he write on the whiteboard or something that we asked to him where we don’t know or we don’t understand about the lesion that we have study, also. So we do not have any chances to put it in the real work, we just learn the theory if we practice it allow us in the short time and a little experience it is not enough for all the students. So if we see to the real work in the office you will see something is different. Staffs are active and perform their work very well. The work is flow from top to down and down to top. All the staff they do differences work and then combine the project that they make it together before the work have finished. All the art work that we designed already always check by design manager and then we provide to the client for agree on the art work before we printing out. But if the art work do not have to put a seal on it or do not have the signature from them. Then the part of the printing department can not print and the company do not know about this art work when the printing out. Because all the art work that they can print put still agree or checking again after the designer have finished on the art work and must to put the stamp that put by the designer or from design department and including the signature from the client on the art work, too. If the art work have all what the company need the printing department start working to print the art work out. So if the art work has the problem by the company, The Company has to accept a loss on the product or the art work, So the product that printed out by the Digital Advertising are good and sell well of the product where the other company have printed from this company.
Sure, no something is best and no someone have no the mistake. It is always have difficult and no someone wants to make it, too. Whatever the first day that I start to work I am very afraid and very scared. Because I never do the work in the company I ever do the homework or make another beside the part of this work. Working in the company is not like the lecture give the assignment to us does at our home. Because it is the first job for me and I never have an experience or have work do like this. I have made a small sample that related to this work. It is really difficult to understand about the job that they give me to do. In the class the teacher always give the point of view about the work that he give us to do like: He wants us to design the advertise he always give all the tings that related to the work include the image, text , and the color that he wants us to put, too. He gives us the instruction and the requirement of the production where we want to advertise. So we do not ask to other that how they want. But different working in the company when the customer wants us to design for them they just give us a little requirement so we are very difficult in this working, like we have to search and ask to the customer by ourselves. Unfortunately, some designing do not have skill in this job. It is not very easy to get all the information that we want from him. The customers are not familiar with technical words that we use with our teachers. So we need a trainee to do this job, because he knows how to get the information clearer than us. He can use the simple words instead of technical words and give the client the very clear explanation. So that it the time where my manager start show me to know about something that working in this job, like how to check the film file , banner file, color file, the text , image who get from the client and how we can get the file for using and the kind of file that we can’t use. After than I need to note all the rule from him and try to know from another person that they work around with me and try to catch all the rule who the manager give the suggestion or co-worker show to me in the processing of the working when they have the work to do. It is really difficult to work in the design the sample show to the client. So after my manager show me already I must to write down on my note book or write down when he speaking or when he working and he try to show me. Because do like this I can do it at the last time when I have more knowledge about this working. And when I have free time I must to check the old file that the co-worker done before. After that my manger tells me more about how to make consideration before doing in the art work or the layout like:
-In one art work how many color should we use and which color can combine together?
-What formation should we use for this layout?
-Choose the right color for the main purpose.
-State what we want to tell the audiences clearly and accuracy.
-Do not mix too many colors in one art work, try to make the art work clear, clean and shape, simple but perfect.
Actually, I am a designer. My responsibility is Photoshop Operator. I have been in a bad mood while I was doing this job. It took me quite long time to complete just a few pictures of design. Because of this feeling that made me want to finish it as soon as possible. Suddenly, I discovered very useful information that told me how to prevent myself from disease, new words, and phrase in the document and I started to learn them without any hesitations. After doing this job I knew that I have gained countless advantages from this translation. This experience has taught me one new thing. Sometimes I would like ask to the customer to give the suggestion for the art work if they want to design in the short time but have the quality, too. So if I want to design with the art work on the time that the customer need, I must try to search and find the new rule or the other style for helping me do in this work. And I need to ask to another co-worker to give some advice in this project, and how to work with the problem that happened in my designing.
Here are some of my suggestions that could help you somehow to smash the problems away:
- Find the causes of problem
- Identify the problem
- Find solutions as much as possible
- Choose the best one among them
- Implement the selected solution immediately
- Analyze the result that you have obtained after implement the selected solution
- Take it as your experience and try to avoid it next time.
Definitely, all people living in the society or working in the office always encounter the problems. But it is quite strange if one says he/she never meet it. Facing problems is not the bad things that happen to me, but it is you real guide for you to improve me in the future career. For instance, it was a real moment that happened to me while I was employing in the internship period. My senior colleague wanted me to find out the new layout for a website. In fact, I have had no skill or talent at design at all, but I accepted the task. Furthermore, I tried by best to deal with it. Eventually, I created two layouts for them, it is not really good, I guess. But at least I have done something to delivery for his request. In addition, I attempted to explain him more about my skill and ability and gave me the reason why I could not do it. Fortunately, he understood and offered me other task that I could do it competently. Normally, there are a lot of people working in a company. Some of them do differences job and some do the same job. All of them have different opinion. How can a supervisor or director manage all his/her staffs? It is a big deal to become a good supervisor or director. Management is an art of using people to do something to achieve the goal or mission. Art of using people is not violent. But it is the way that manager communicates and organizes their Staff to do their job. To obtain the best result managers should organize their staff very well, have the potential right to make punishment and promotion, and have a powerful discipline. Assigning tasks to staffs are made carefully. Use their skill to implement the job that can get the highest result. The assigned task must be delivered before or on the deadline, otherwise reason is need for late submission. The manager should encourage all his/her staffs to follow up the schedule and keep themselves update when is needed. The manager should survey with the work that your staffs do every week by commanding them to make a report once a week. It will help you to valuate your staffs’ activities.
During that I have work in this company I found that my knowledge is very difference before I am not working as a graphic designer with other staff and co-worker. Before I do not do this work I see I do not know how to work and how to be a good communication with other people. Doing in this company I have get a lot of experience from my job. Facing problems is not the bad things that happen to you, but it is you real guide for you to improve you future career. For instance, it was a real moment that happened to me while I was employing in the internship period. My senior colleague wanted me to find out the new layout for the art work of my design. In fact, I have had no skill or talent at design at all, but I accepted the task. Furthermore, I tried by best to deal with it. Normally, there are a lot of people working in a company. Some of them do differences job and some do the same job. All of them have different opinion. Management is an art of using people to do something to achieve the goal or mission. Art of using people is not violent. But it is the way that manager communicates and organizes their. To obtain the best result managers should organize their staff is good, have the potential right to make punishment and promotion, and have a powerful discipline. Assigning tasks to staffs are made carefully. Use their skill to implement the job that can get the highest result. The assigned task must be delivered before or on the deadline that the customer need to take their product. Sometimes the art work or the layout that we get from the client they want to check the color testing on their art work. So we are always determine to the client what the time that they want to come for checking their art work or check the problem in their file after they gave to us, do like this the system of working are improve and good quality on their product and art work, also.
After I have working in this company about four months ago it is helping me to show about my knowledge and work experience including the quality and the entire disadvantage that I made during I have working. It is the best experience that I made everyday. Because of all this work it make sure that something is understood or correctly that I made or something that I never made such as, the occasion that I can do on the working and it is the cause that I made the problem of the working. Although the problem always makes me difficult to decide do in the art work or the layout. For the checking the file or the design on the art work make me try to find another rule to show the best way that push my working is higher and to encourage my spirit to think the new style for my working. So I hope that that my knowledge that I get from the internship program in this company will be push me try to be continuous as a designer for my future and I will keep on my working in this company till I have ability to open a small business for the printing house by myself and I hope to make a good communicate with this company to keep for a partner in the business in the future.
If I were a manager I will be to propose have the changing all the structure in this the new structure that better today , like staff that working all the department and try to find other partner in the business where located in our country and oversea. It is especially important for the company and executives in any organization to agree upon the basic vision that the firm strives to achieve in the long term. During the process of developing a mission statement, some organizations use discussion groups of manage the process and help draft the language. Find the mistake that the company made and try to find in the new vision for develop in the company and try to change the external forces translate into changes in consumer demand for both industrial and consumer products and services. And design strategies to achieve long-term objectives, and to develop policies to achieve annual objectives. Make the planning and certain about the future of any organization is change, and planning helps a firm achieve maximum effect from a given effort. And we should encourage all the staffs to follow up the schedule and keep themselves update when is needed. And we should survey with the work that your staffs do every week by commanding them to make a report once a week. It will help to valuate our staffs’ activities.
In short, all above I have mention are my difficulties and challenges that I have encounter while I was in the internship period. I would like to share this experience with other people in order to improve their ability and minimize their fault. Internship program is a good program that let me and other students experience the real working environment.
