Hi, sorry if I have to be blunt but it's the truth from what I had seen and know.

There are many thai graphics and web designers here who can do good jobs and reasonable prices. Some are full time and some are freelance.

There are many Filipinos here doing such jobs too. I know 1 who is doing for eBay too.

There are a group of Americans based here but their clients are from USA. As their cost here is lower thus they can pass the savings back to their American clients.

Its stiff competition for your field of work besides teaching English language, the queue is more than a kilometer long from various nationalities in the world.

I had a personal Filipino friend who graduate in MBA from Webster university in Hua Hin but couldn't get a job here. Finally have to go back to Philippines.

Sorry I could not be of much help to you. Seek deep in you as to what can you offer to make it attractive to employers.

For example, many people are drivers for bosses. But if one goes for interview, not only he's a driver but can be a body guard too especially for ladies boss. He can also be helper to carry shopping bags for the boss while she shop.

You need to be different from others to be attractive to employers.

Best of luck and GOD bless you.
