as a conclusion if i am understanding correctly...vectorworks on its own as you said is used for drafting; floor plans, elevations and construction drawings...but if i want to bring that to life (visualiser) i can do so using vectoworks artlantis (which is easier to pick up) or 3d studio max/cinema 4d? Please do correct me if i am wrong...i am here to learn as much as i can!

Hi Phil, this helps a lot!!... thank you for your response...i am a novice at any of these programs and will just be starting out...the program the company was asking for was knowing Vectorworks...understandably i would need to know it because as an interior designer i must be able to read floor plans and construction drawings as well as draft them even if its not the part i enjoy the most! but it is required as mentioned i was previously advised that Vectorworks is quicker to learn than AutoCad especially if i am trying to get a foot into the industry as quickly as possible...currently i have the full version of vectorworks 2014 downloaded onto my computer. i think i am more of a designer and visualiser (loved the photos in the artlantis link)...this type of rendering skill would be great to develop but isn't my main focus for now... i know this maybe a silly question as i said i am a novice...is artlantis a separate program to Vectoworks or is it already apart of it.

hi everyone, I have a dilema...i am a graduate and want to get an into interior design job...i was offered a position in the past but didnt make it through because i lacked the technical skills (computer aided)...i can do hand drafting but i know that can only get me so far...i am on the missing of learning vectorworks or autocad and wanted to know which program is best to learn that will improve my chances of getting into the industry very quickly and is also quick to learn in itself.
