Blog Design Studio Seeks Designer

We have some big plans in store for 2006 and our client list has been growing by leaps and bounds – we are seeking to hire some new talent to join our team here at E.Webscapes.

Here’s the down and dirty:

Minimum Requirements:

  • Documented experience in graphic design and web standards and development
  • Experience with popular content management systems. (MT and TypePad experience is a STRONG PLUS)
  • HTML/CSS knowledge is a requirement
  • Truthful, open and honest communication with all people at all times
  • Excellent time management. Ability to work on a deadline
  • While the number one qualification for this opening is a strong sense of design (aesthetics) along with strong web skills, we’re also looking for individuals with great critical thinking skills.
  • We run shop like a consultancy, which means you need to know your stuff – and “their stuff” (whoever they may be).
  • A portfolio of blog sites you have designed that we can review. The portfolio should show your skills, creativity and flexibility in design.

Work Environment

  • Your home.
  • In your pajamas, if you like
  • This is part time work

We’re looking for someone who

  • Thinks design is about solving problems, not making them
  • Likes to have a lot of fun tinkering around inside the guts of a blog
  • Gets more kicks out of removing elements from a page than adding them
  • Wants to learn, push themselves, and make the web a better place to be!
  • Doesn’t look at a blog program as JUST a blog program anymore

Sound like something you could potentially be interested in? Well? What do you have to bring to the table? Tell me a story about why I should consider you for the position! I LOVE a good story!

Drop a me an email .

I will give every interested party a serious look! We’re very busy and could use YOUR talents!

(serious inquiries only, please!)

We appreciate each and everyone who expresses interest in the position. At this time, however, we will not be taking into consideration designers who are currently affiliated with other design studios.

Also note: please do not apply if you do not have experience with creating templates and designs for blog programs. We are not just looking for a graphic designer – - this person ALSO needs to be well versed in CSS, Web Standards and the coding required for many of the different blog programs out there.

If you are familiar with only one blog platform – that is ok . . send us your information and we’ll review your work.
