what do designers do?
A designer creates and works with photography, websites, films, etc. A good designer should have technical skills and knowledge about the usability of the selected medium. The designer creates a functional product due to the designer’s expertise and according to the client’s needs.
worked together before
A couple of times.
additional thoughts
The salary depends on the performance and the branch of the designer. I think it is impossible to specify a designer’s workday with start and end time, for example it depends also on the individual biorhythm.
working at night per month
Many times per month.
