What layouts to make up for a beginner?

Question

Layout

Hello. The other day I literally finished the 1st level of layout at the Academy, successfully passed the project and was full of motivation for further work. Only all my motivation disappeared until I saw the layouts on the Internet. My eyes widen and I don't know what to choose. Some look too complicated, others have a crooked psd, etc.
What sites with templates can you advise, where do you take (take) layouts from and which layouts should you avoid for now, or take on everything? Thank you all for your replies)

Answer 1

You will have to work with different people. And with psd curves and jpg in the quality of the layout, and even with "Wishlist" on a napkin. So do not sort out, take it in turn, take different ones. The main thing is more practice. I didn’t have to work with an ideal psd, in which there is a grid, in which the designer foresaw what is feasible and what is not. There are always a lot of "surprises", so do not look for the ideal, it does not exist and never will.

Answer 2

Went to various layout interviews, were given some layouts to complete as a test task. If you are interested, I have collected several in one folder https://drive.google.com/open?id=1AWEvJdKJ4ShiZsPZ...

On the first day I received a working laptop, under Windows 7, on which there was neither Photoshop nor any graphic program at all. As a layout, I received a completely incomprehensible pdf curve taken from where, the dimensions of which did not match the required output. Yes, a full responsive response was also needed, but even this was not given for the tablet and mobile versions.
In general, I spit all over, put a portable gimp, filed a bootstrap grid there, made a jpeg in half with grief, somehow fitted to this grid ...
In general, in the middle of Wednesday I did, in general, in my opinion, the best that could be done from it, but I already knew for sure that I would not work here. 'Cause I was told that it would always be like this...
