Let’s be honest: finding a job isn't easy.
It doesn't matter if you've just graduated, or are making a career move. Finding a job can be a long, scary process that seems to run in circles. You don't know if or when you'll hear back from hiring managers. You wonder if the job you're searching for is right for you, and if “the one“ is even available. You're ready for an opportunity, but feel like no one gives you a chance.
It can be tough to understand your value to an employer.
When there's no reassurance that you're doing the "right" thing, you may doubt yourselves—your education, your creative background and skills—before you even get to the interview! “What value would I bring to this role? Is my work even good enough? What if I'm not good enough?“
The perfect job for you is out there.
You just have to know how to find it. That way, when you're going through the job-hunting process, the right one will find you. And in this course, Petrula will give you the tools, tips, and guidance to confidently land a job that was made for you.

The secret to getting there is getting started.
Everybody's got some excuse for why they can’t move ahead.
“My work’s not good enough.”
“The timing just isn't right.”
“I don’t have the courage.”
“I am never going to get there.”
Fear of the unknown can keep us stuck, both personally and professionally. But nothing is going to get you farther along than deeply understanding who you are, what an employer needs and the process to make that connection.
Sure, they may see your great work, but they’re unsure how long it took you to get there. They don't know if you are a great team member, a generous collaborator, and ultimately, if you can do your very best under pressure.
The secret? Instilling trust.
This course is not only about getting a job. It's about replacing the unknowns with things you will now understand, so there’s less to fear! We’ll cover research, planning, writing, presenting, negotiating, and making that connection meaningful.
You have to take the time to understand the process—otherwise, you’ll never know where you might have gone wrong in the past.
In my late 20s, I was just starting my own graphic design studio. I was really afraid. So I asked a seasoned colleague his career advice. He said, “Petrula, just show up to meetings on time, return phone calls promptly, be dependable and do what you say you’re going to do.”
I thought, “It can’t be that easy,” and he smiled and said, “If you do those things, you’ll be better than 90% of designers out there.” Turns out, I just needed a nudge in the right direction.
So, I want to give you that same nudge. I want you to look at the next place you want to be and ask, “How am I going to get there?”
I’ve helped hundreds of young designers realize their potential, and now, I want to inspire you to do your best.
If you're ready, let's get started and get you that dream job.

In each video lesson, Chris will teach you about typographic principles, the history of type, and how to apply the fundamentals across your design work.
Stretch and flex your design muscles
Practice what you've learned in the video lectures to push your skills further. Do the homework as many times as you need to fully grasp the material.
Watch Chris work
See how Chris makes improvements to previous students’ work using typographic principles. Then, take notes of how you can apply these same techniques to your own work.
Watch your skills develop
See your designs take on a whole new shape and meaning as you move through the course. Start to feel comfortable and confident with typography.
Get access to the community
Your enrollment includes access to our private Slack channel and an invitation to Circle. Connect and keep learning with your instructor, Chris Do, and Typography students around the world.
This course is for any designer looking to understand type to improve their layout and design skills.
I learned more about typography in this course than during my BA in graphic design. This gives me confidence that I can make effective layouts and better design of any kind. I also felt I was part of a community, who learned together. Once a week for seven weeks, Chris critiqued our submitted layouts and this motivated us to put knowledge into practice and submit our work. This course is the best investment I've made in myself in becoming a better graphic designer. And I've invested in a lot of courses and books.
