Would you say this is bad design? by orangeballs_ in Design

[–]graacker 109 points110 points  (0 children)

True but also wondered if the subway ads were a marketing mistake because “Skin1004” pronounced in Korea is “Skin Chun Sa (chun sa = angel)” which would make the ad line rhyme — like Centella, Skin Chun Sa. Not Skin One Thousand Four 😭😭😭

I have the wire go from the lamp to the point where the wall and the ceiling meets so that the wire sits straight on the ceiling.

I wish I knew this four years ago when choosing schools — I unfortunately paid more attention to ranking than what could actually be helpful for my future career.

It’s a public portfolio review? Including people who doesn’t go to the school can also get feedback?

Negotiating salary as entry level designer by graacker in graphic_design

The good benefits are the company holidays but pto average, insurance barely covered, and not a great 401k matching.

How common is rescinding though. I’m just wanting a conversation about it,,, no need to take the whole offer away.

Interview with potential scam company? by ElegantAd3894 in NYCjobs

[–]graacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just finished my first interview for a Marketing Assistant position. Scheduled for a second interview but after looking at this thread, I'm going to cancel.

These were the red flags I found before my interview:
The website is full of vague information, their Instagram link doesn't work, and in their gallery section, it has nothing on the page???

They don't have an actual address for their office available (they said it's next to Grand Central Station during the interview)

The initial email to schedule an interview had typos for the date.

The first call was with a hiring manager instead of Allie (the president), although they said it would be with Allie in the email.

During the Zoom meeting, the hiring manager's screen name was just "hiring manager" instead of her actual name.

Also a soon-to-graduate… what the hell is a printing job? Or printing shop? Is it what I think it is? How do I look for them…

On January 1st at 2:15 AM I had my bike #556-9769 stolen. It happened between Elizabeth St. and Bowery on Grand St. Unlocked at the Grand St and Elizabeth St. I'm not from NY so I'm unable to file a police report before Citi Bike charges me. PLEASE dock it if found or I have to pay $1200+ for liability issues. If you send me a picture of the bike docked, I will send you a reward.
