    Mr. Skin is hiring a Senior Designer

    We are finishing up a great year with a lot of new hires. We're now looking for exceptional web design talent interested in joining the Mr. Skin team here in Chicago. To be clear, the following is a description of the type of individual that we are looking for. It is not required that you match every point that we list. After reading the description you should know if you can do the job. If you are interested please let me know. One strict requirement is that this is an in house position.

    .................................................. ..........................

    Since 1999, MrSkin.com is the web?s #1 go?to destination for the complete skinny on Hollywood starlets at their hottest and is visited by over 6.5 million unique visitors every month. With daily show business updates in addition to a database of more than 18,00 actress bios and more than 30,000 movie and TV show reviews, Mr. Skin delivers a one-of-a-kind celebrity entertainment experience from a male point-of-view. That?s what we mean by ?fast-forwarding to the good parts.?

    We're looking for a designer & product development specialist to help keep up with our explosive growth. The key to this position is finding ways to constantly improve our product and make sure our consumers love us. This includes researching and identifying needs or opportunities, ideation, creation of concept decks, designing intuitive and attractive user interfaces, working with others on the design and development teams, determining metrics for success, analyzing data, and making informed decisions on each project.

    What we're looking for:

    -B.A., M.A., or Ph.D. in Graphic Design or similar field.
    -Extraordinary visual design, product, interaction, and user experience talent.
    -Curiosity and passion for crafting amazing experiences.
    -Proficiency in HTML, CSS, and the full Adobe Creative Suite.
    -Excellent communication skills and ability to explain your design decisions.
    -The number of years of professional experience you have isn't important to us.
    -A love of celebrities and/or nudity is a huge plus!

    In the short run, the most important thing is to improve our product so it is critical that you can immediately make big contributions. The ideal candidate should be well versed in user experience, have an excellent eye for design, be an excellent communicator, as well as an effective marketer and recruiter. While development isn't a key portion for this position, candidates should be well versed in both HTML/CSS and have a working understanding of javascript.

    You will be required to make good decisions about important things without much oversight. You should be comfortable with autonomy and ownership of projects large and small. An ideal candidate will have the potential to grow into a strong leadership role over time -- in either a design, product development, or management capacity.

    Mr. Skin is located in the trendy Bucktown neighborhood of Chicago. We're highly profitable, have great advisors, and our team is made up of smart, motivated hard-working people who have an unwavering passion for what they do - both in and out of the office!

    If you're interested, tell us a little bit about yourself and amazing things you have built, share some code samples or github/bitbucket account, and toss in a resume. Please contact [email protected].

                            For a graphics designer I would put more emphasis on experience/portfolio than a B.A., M.A., or Ph.D.

                            Great designers seem to be naturals. Can you even get a phd in graphics design?

                              You are making assumptions on what we are putting more emphasis.

                                There is actually... Although it is doubtful you would actually want a graphic designer with a PhD.
