Our dream candidate:
You’re an up-and-coming multifaceted design star. You love what you do and know what you want to do. You ask, "how can I make this better" instead of "is this done yet?" Your portfolio is clean, professional, and full of big ideas. You tap into culture, art, film, fashion, and technology for inspiration. You dream of breaking into the advertising industry and learn from mentors who push you. You want to learn new ways to design, and interesting ways of how to approach ideas. You are a font junkie, a wizard at combining artistry and technical know-how. You embrace both the print and digital world. With a mastermind for marketing, your visual communications are fresh, effective and on brand. You are a black belt of the Creative Suite. You thrive on collaboration with an ego-free capability to understand and apply feedback of creative leadership. You handle concurrent projects and fast-paced deadlines with a serene calm and sense of humor. You have a keen eye for color and meticulous attention to detail. Your drive – knowing it’s not how good you are, but how good you want to be
Is this you? We’d love to meet you.
