Graphic Design :: HR Consulting

Anyone who has spent years in the design industry will tell you there is much more involved than the unveiling of the final product. Production art takes years of discipline and, more importantly, a knack for "creativity on demand".


An artist's portfolio might cause jaws to drop, but the fact is if he or she can't produce that same caliber of work under tight deadline pressure, you should keep looking!

When a former employer requested Matt's assistance in finding a replacement designer after he left the company, Matt realized that what had become obvious to him after years of experience in production art might not be so obvious to your average CEO or Human Resources Director.

In fact, Matt would soon discover that those in the position to hire a graphic designer often waste precious time and money interviewing candidates with far less experience than the company desires and can afford.

Allow us to shorten your hiring process and even help you find the ideal candidate to fit your needs. As artists, we've spent years looking at the portfolios of other artists, and will be able to tell you within minutes if the candidate is worthy of reaching the interview stage. We can also help you test his or her abilities when the time comes so that you know the artist you hire will be able to handle the workload you have in mind.
