Brand Flakes for Breakfast

we're hiring.



Uber hot design and branding firm VIA is seeking a new designer. Here's a few details that should tell you all you need to know:

Why we’ll dig you:
  • You live, breathe and think design
  • You’ve got a killer portfolio of print and interactive work
  • You’re almost a master at Photoshop and Quark/InDesign. You can get by in Illustrator
  • You have an incredible sense of humor.
  • You have great ideas.
  • You want to do great things.

Why you’ll love working at VIA:

  • We believe in fun.
  • More creative control than any firm in the US
  • Challenging, fun clients
  • You’ll have a say, with our open management philosophy. Open books, company planning and no secrets.
  • Open office environment encourages collaboration
  • Music server supports a slightly noisy work environment
  • The Beastie Boys were once declared our official company band
  • Planning meetings in fun places (like Puerto Rico, above)
  • Aggressive profit sharing plan
  • 1/2 day Fridays during the summertime
  • 100% paid health benefits, 401(k) plan
  • We want to do great things.

Things you might not like so much:
  • We’re in Connecticut, where the weather’s almost always grey. (the pic above is a branding strategy, to distract you from that.)
  • Just as many boring clients as exciting clients.
  • Someone put ABBA on our office music server.
  • There’s no good deli in walking distance from our office.
  • Mid level salary. Under 50, over 30. We're not rich, but we're working on it.
Send your resume (and preferably, a link to some work) to: darryl AT viaworldwide.com

Our job posting can also be found on CA's - Creative Hotlist and in HOW's - Job Bank (under CT).

Like there I was lost in melancholy because some nattering nabobs bought the house from Christmas Story and turn it into a mock museum shrine while,not getting a cent from it, Jean Sheperd's body lies writhing under an alligator somewhere in southern Florida, then I go to a site promising a horror parody of Christmas story.

What do I get?!?

Ralphie said it better, "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine. Ovaltine? A crummy commercial? Son of a bitch!"

Sleep lightly, I lurk in the shadows

I'm still really mad about this. Mad like whoa. Because I heard about y'all wanting an intern immediately after signing a contract with another design company. As in the same afternoon. Pardon me while I go stomp my feet like a child...
