d*s job board

ds-job-board.jpg
jenny and co. over at also are working on finishing the d*s job board as we speak so i thought it would be a good time to announce that we’ll be posting both listings for jobs and listings for those looking for jobs. jobs will range from part-time and freelance to full-time jobs, paid and unpaid internships and will cover all aspects of the design industry. we’ll also have a special section for people looking for jobs with space to upload resumes. both sides of the job board (offering and seeking jobs) will be searchable by location. if you’re interested in posting a job or your resume, please shoot me a line for rates and guidelines. we hope to have the board up and running soon!

also, just to kick things off, here’s a local nyc listing from wayne pate and his wife, fashion designer rebecca taylor:

rebecca is looking for a store designer to come up with a template to be used for all her stores in new york city, tokyo and hong kong. she’s looking for someone immediately. someone with experience and who works in the trade. for inquiries please contact rachel at rachel@rebeccataylor.com.

Hi Grace,

Wondering if the postings require the candidate to be in the local area? If not, I will pass on the news to some qualified people (not me - I am just a computer geek ;-) ).

Thanks!

the font looks a bit like Alejandro Paul’s new Feel script for veer.
