This week, I found an article discussing the outlook for web design jobs through 2022. It talks through ‘everything you need to know’ if you are looking to become a web designer between then and now.
In the article, it first discusses the things a web designer might be asked to do. They include things like developing web pages, creating the visual design of web pages, conducting user tests, managing social media and more. The article goes on to talk about necessary education for the job and while many web designers these days have at least an associates degree, you can get into the job even if your degree isn’t necessarily related. The article even mentions that getting a job in web design shouldn’t be difficult with a degree in graphic design; as long as you also have some knowledge of html and css. They also mention how writing for web design is currently in demand as well.
In general, the field of web design is growing as the need for everything to be digitized grows as well. The article estimates that the field of web design will have grown by 20% from 2012 to 2022. It is said to be one of the fasted growing fields based on “the growing popularity of mobile devices and eCommerce.”
