Check out the first two parts of this book (look it up on LibGen and purchase it if you like it). The first two parts address the more practical aspects of design in general (even things freelance work I believe) and the rest is geared toward web design as the title suggests. But it’s something to thumb through to get you prepared quickly if you’re interested.
I imagine since you’re a new graduate and they’re interns that you’re all roughly around the same age. You haven’t divulged the details of your prior meetings but I can imagine that some pushback may be due to the fact that they are as aware as you are that you’re new to leading a team.
Truth is that you’ve probably led something before. Tap into that psychologically. I mean this just like the time you ran the back of the house when you worked at that Greek spot Junior year, right? Right.
It would probably help to have an informal meeting, addressing the fact that you’re new, they’re interns, you all likely have a limited amount of time to work together at this job at all. We’re young. This can either suck for us and discourage us as professionals, or we can work together and have fun while we do it and reminisce over this when we’re 35 and working on legacy node monoliths.
- theeohsees 4y agoSweet, thanks for the advice+resource. Yep, we're all pretty close in age and I've been very transparent about the fact that I'm new to this. I may have been a little dramatic, things aren't sucking quite yet but I foresee future frustration if I don't figure out a way to organize our design process. Appreciate you taking the time to answer
