Objective Subject: UI-focused Design Intern

(New York, NY)

Objective Subject is looking for a fun, interesting, and talented, ideally full-time, user interface-focused design intern to complement its team and contribute to the design and production process of several interesting device user interface and website projects.

The ideal candidate is a soon-t0-be or recent graduate, who wants working experience designing and implementing touch-screen interfaces. 

We are looking for somebody who: 

• Loves to create the most clean and pixel-perfect icons and buttons while helping solve complex interaction problems;
• Knows Adobe Creative Suite inside and out and always teaches classmates and professors key commands. 
• Imagines how an application’s menus, buttons, palettes, and toolbars could be done better; 
• Downloads multiple iPhone apps that do the same thing to find the best, understands why Facebook keeps changing the homepage, and notices how even Apple doesn’t have perfect UI consistency (at least they try); 
• Likes to use his or her hands, but above all his or her mind;
• Has a strong interest in Interface Design as it applies to both devices and websites;
• Likes to work in a beautiful office with other nice designers;
• Does not like to go pick up coffee, but likes to drink it;
• Is still enrolled as a graphic design / visual communication student or a recent grad, looking to pick up more experience on some fun jobs;
• Does not like to work for free;
• Has good availability in the coming month (we will be flexible with timing – could be part-time);
• Can come to work work in our DUMBO office in Brooklyn (no tele-commuting).
• Is ready to start soon.

The ideal candidate will also be: 

• Quick on the up-take, creative, and technical;
• Organized, Methodical and articulate;
• Visually sophisticated and demonstrate an interest in user interface design, animation, and web design;
• Should be aware of creative design process (concept to production) and demonstrate an ability to work with a design team;
• Able to show experience in front-end web development experience (HTML, CSS);
• Ability to work comfortably under deadlines and direction from senior designers;
• Great conceptual skills, experimental with a good understanding of visual interface design;
