Wanted: Graphic Artist Ready to Show Some Muscle

In the wake of Fighter, Coach creative director Reed Krakoff‘s book on Ultimate Fighters, comes your chance to pick a fight. World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (WWE) is looking for a mid-level 2D artist to join its TV Graphics department, based at its Stamford, Connecticut HQ. The ideal candidate for the position will be “highly creative with strong graphic design and typography skills” and “able to work as part of a team following instructions and collaborating with producers.” The ability to name a few WWE wrestlers probably wouldn’t hurt either (and no, Junkyard Dog doesn’t count). Did we mention that they have a state-of-the-art fitness center?

Wanted: Worldly Graphic Designer

globe.gifTired of jobs that allow you to save the world but require a wardrobe of spandex unitards, primary colors, and bulky capes? You’re in luck, because the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) is in the market for a graphic designer. The non-profit public policy organization is looking for someone to apply his or her knowledge of print and web design to assist CSIS in its mission “to provide strategic insights and practical policy solutions to decision makers concerned with global security.” Bring your “good sense of clean design principles” and crackerjack Photoshop and InDesign skills. And it probably wouldn’t hurt to brush up on matters of global security before your interview. Our advice? Simply memorize key phrases from WarGames and Sneakers (bonus points for delivering the latter in the icily maniacal cadence of Cosmo, the character played by Ben Kingsley). And while “The only way to win is not to play” may be true when it comes to global thermonuclear war, not so with job listings.

Mickey is looking for design help—or at least a part of his empire is. Disney ABC Television Group is on the hunt for a creative director to work some Disney magic for ABC News Digital and in the process “develop innovative, creative visual experiences for exploring the news and interactive approaches to storytelling on ABCNews.com.” Be ready to discuss your digital news media prowess and “fresh new approach,” but resist the temptation to mention that Donald Duck cartoons were banned in Finland because he didn’t wear pants. Sadly, it’s a myth.

Wanted: Design Director to Blind Them with Science

man of science.jpgDo you excel at explaining phenomena ranging from plate tectonics to nuclear fission using only a pen and a dinner napkin? Read Nature for the figures? Doodle double helices—and their accompanying nucleotides? Then listen up, because Science News is looking for a visual Einstein to lead and supervise the design and production staff for its magazine and website, which are published by the Society for Science & the Public in Our Nation’s Capital. As design director, you’ll also commission and direct freelance artists, conceptualize and lay out the magazine, manage the art budget, and liase with the printer. Need you be able to tell xylem from phloem, ventricles from atria, a chupacabra from an exasperated kangaroo? “A background in science is not required,” notes Science News. “But intellectual curiosity about science and comfort with scientific ideas is essential.”
