<br>
<br>
You’re going to respond to this because this describes you to the letter:
<br>

<br>
• Believes that great design isn’t done in a vacuum
<br>
• Lives a streamlined workflow between CS apps

• Adapts easily to team-based project workflow
<br>
• Doesn’t wait around for things to happen
<br>
• Asks questions until the next steps are absolutely clear in their mind’s eye
<br>
<br>
Those traits belong to any designer that will apply for the position. What’s going to separate those that apply from the one that gets the gig is the following:
<br>
<br>
• Lives working well with their peers and the greater team as an absolute need, not just something to do when the mood is right
<br>
• Listens, synthesizes, and reflects as much as stating their own opinion
<br>
• Can tell stories of times where they pulled a teammate up when they needed it the most for the sake of the team getting across the finish line

• Brings solutions to obstacles to the table
<br>
• Is a constructive advocate for doing things right, with honest intent, and in a way that they’d be proud of any day of the week, any month of the year
<br>
• Personal accountability is the backbone of your DNA
<br>
• You’re always in learning mode
<br>
<br>
A bit about the team you’ll be joining:
<br>
<br>
Our people are uniquely talented. We thrive on challenges and live for innovation, while transforming client ideas into articulate, well designed visuals. Clients come to us for original thinking, design expertise, and the unwavering pursuit of simplicity. We take massively complex, often incomplete concepts and return magic via the medium of presentations. We help clients focus on their real objective and the part of the presentation that really matters: the audience.
<br>
<br>
At the core, we are visual thinkers and storytellers. There is no “I” in Duarte. There is teamwork, mutual respect, passion for learning, immense camaraderie, lots of laughing, and long-lasting relationships. People who come to Duarte find more than a job. They find a home, a passion, a career. You will find a people-centered spirit that values service and quality. We are changing the way the world thinks about presentations. If you really want to impress us, check out slide:ology before we have a chance to talk.
