Below are a few tips and some insider information on our Design Team which I hope will help you decide if SiteCrafting is the place for you.
- If you are just copying and pasting email after email with the same intro you will most likely end up not making it past HR
- Our designers have a passion for new technology & design and frequently visit sites like: http://techcrunch.com, http://digg.com, http://webdesignledger.com, http://alistapart.com, http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew, http://thebestdesigns.com
- Our iTunes/Pandora includes artists such as; DJ Jazzy Jeff, Freeway, Jake One, Dom Kennedy, Talib Kweli, Slick Rick, Bob Marley, Eliot Lipp
- We like caffeine - it's not uncommon for Glen to crush through 3 cups of coffee while Michael averages 4 and might kick off the morning with a Red Bull
- Our designers have a great sense of humor
- We brought Glen out of retirement and he is now #4 at foosball in the office
- We work with the most skilled web developers out there who aren't afraid to push us to design experiences that are challenging and never been done
- We primarily design for the screen and mobile phone but have the skills to execute on anything from video to print
- Everyday is different, routine is unacceptable to us
- We hire designers who enjoy taking lead
- Working on 6-10 projects at a time is not uncommon
- Awards aren't everything to us, solving the clients needs are our awards
- If you only send a resume you won't get past HR, a portfolio is a must.
Thank you for considering to apply, if you have any other questions about this position feel free to ask in the comments section below and we'll do our best to answer.

Do you give back rubs? and... is there complimentary ramen? not just any ramen mind you... TOP ramen. Thanks.

We have a large supply of TOP ramen. We also have a moth-balled roomba that will hit your foot repeatedly, closest thing to back rubs.
