Join a practice and get networking.  Go to CPD meetings at your local RIBA (or similar) and meet other professionals.\n\nIf you do small works then get some flyers printed up and put in the home improvement stores.\n\nRather depends on the size of job you are looking for.\n\nHope that helps

Good base of answers above, and all are pretty much correct.  An architect will determine how a building looks, feels, and functions to the satisfaction of the owner.  A structural engineer will determine what is required to resist the forces of nature (gravity, wind, seismic, etc.) so as to ensure the building can be safely occupied to the satisfaction of the architect.  Notice the chain of command...\n\nArchitects must pass a very intense testing program to become licensed in their state.  Engineers must first pass an FE exam (8 hours) usually after graduation, then get through four years of experience, then pass another 8 hour test to become licensed in their state.\n\nStructural engineering is basically a branch of civil engineering; however, I have found that many civil engineers who end up doing engineering in architecture lack the ability to understand the needs of architecture.  Enter the architectural engineer.  We are trained in the all of the essentials of engineering, but we also take courses in architecture to ensure some understanding of that side of building construction.  We are here to design a building, but lets not forget that the whole point is for it to look good.\n\nI was in the same predicament as you when I graduated high school.  I liked physics and math and buildings.  If you have an interest in buildings and construction and you have a technical background as well, you should consider architectural engineering.  If your technical background is not so strong and you have more creativity, stick with architecture.  Either way, be sure to find an ABET accredited program otherwise, the licensing process becomes much more difficult.

An architect usually has a precise eye for detail. A background in art is especially helpful, with strengths in thinking as an engineer, a builder, good people-skills and an interior designer. An architect has to be a great listener when he/she is meeting with a client, to truly hear what they are asking for, and even what they're not actually verbalizing. It is a most fitting career for either gender, and there are all sorts of specializations in the field. \n\nIt is a rewarding career that can pay extremely well or get you by comfortably, in some sort of style. (Architects do have, above all else, STYLE.) You can work in a large firm and enjoy the big-city life or work in your pajamas at home. You can go anywhere with architecture...but you do have to enjoy sitting on your bum quite a lot. The hours are long and the deadlines can be stressful - but almost any job includes that.

Look for retired mayors and city managers from larger, well run cities. These people do consulting work of this type all the time. Find a city that you think is well run and start from there.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants/Retail/Bars\nbodell1@cox.net\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

You can try Craigs List... www.craigslist.org \nI dont know why you are only asking for Designers in the U.K\nWeb designing is something that anyone can do for you, in any part of the world. By limiting yourself to designers only in the U.K, you are also sort of putting a block on creativity, many american and asian webdesigners incorporate cultural elements that may help your website. I design websites but not on a proffesional level.\nYou may want to try Craigslist and go through it. Web designing is pretty easy to supervise online especially if the person designing your website is overseas- alot of companies offer an escrow like system- if you dont like the website- the designer doesnt get paid, and like wise you dont get the source files etc.\n\nPayment is usually negotiated using online paysites such as paypal which are totally safe and protect you from fraud.

I would recommend checking out Monster, Hot Jobs, or Career Builder. Also, take a look at the Craig's List listings for Art/Media/Design jobs in your area (click the city that is closest to where you're living).

there are many different tastes and styles to choose from- many different likes and dislikes among architects and the companies that pay them for their services.\n\nbuildings are made to last so they must be able to function in the future which is hard to plan because of how technology is rapidly increasing\n\ndifferent styles are used in different parts of the country- example would be that houses in Midwest have basements and houses along the ocean do not- architecture must fit the geographical area

You should assemble a good portfolio and start making phone calls to these companies art directors. Look for any leads you can find, web ads, newspaper ad and use any contacts in the design field you might know, since many design companies do not place ads in newspapers. Don't stop either with a "no" from an Art Director. Ad Agencies and design firms personel change often. So ever few months call again for a interview.\n\nIn addition create a web page with your portfolio where these people can look at your work. Sample portfolios are a good idea also, that you can send to different firms.
