Web Design Internship

We are currently looking for an intern to work in our design department alongside our creative director and lead designer. This person should be interested in working with a group of highly energetic creative professionals who are passionate about creating unique interactive experiences. The intern will report to the lead designer and work alongside the account team, front-end developers and programmers.

You will be asked to assist in web design tasks ranging from photo touch-ups to design projects for our clients. While we handle large accounts, we are a relatively small team, so multi-tasking is a requirement. Qualified applicants must be proficient in the full Adobe web design suite and have a passion for designing and developing websites (this includes understanding and coding for cross-browser compatibility - if you don’t understand this now, you will!). Knowledge of HTML & CSS is a must. Experience with Content Management Systems is also a major upside, but not necessarily required. Good communication and presentation skills are mandatory and the candidate also must be reliable, diligent and have a true passion for working in a creative, ideas oriented, fast paced environment where team work is required. You will be expected to work within our process to deliver quality work on time. If you have the talent, we're interested.

Local candidates only please. You must be able to legally work in the US. Recruiters and staffing companies NEED NOT contact us. We're serious about this.

Please email a copy of your resume and relative work experience (links to your work and portfolio are required) to chris@o3world.com. If you do not have any Photoshop experience, please do not submit your resume. And please do not call our offices or fax your resume, as both will disqualify you from the internship, and land you on our wall of shame. Just kidding.

Internships

Attention all creative or technical or Web savvy or hard working or interesting people with a need to achieve! We are seeking interns for the Spring of 2012 for all departments. So whether you're a marketing major who does not want the same, boring "Dunder Mifflin" internship... a designer who is looking for some actual design experience... or a programmer interested in creating a social network from scratch... we're interested in you!

This is not a "hey kid, go get me some coffee" kind of gig (though, that would be nice from time to time). We want to help you grow, and in return, help us grow. So if you're interested, please submit your resume below. Please let us know how much time you will be able to commit per week and what your areas of interest are. While we are some pretty cool cats here, make sure you are responsible, hard working and passionate….because while we like being laid back, we're not so down with that sense of entitlement thing.

Do not call our offices as this will result in immediate disqualification.
