SNR DIGITAL Staffer Call Information

Please click here to submit your application.

Please read the following in its entirety:

   It’s important to note that this is not a design team call. We are seeking DIGITAL paper crafters who will become an ongoing staff member with no predetermined term and with an at-will relationship.

   Early submissions are encouraged and we strongly suggest that applicants not wait until the last minute to turn in their applications. Of course, all applications will be painstakingly considered and waiting until the deadline, or near the deadline, will not harm your chances of becoming a staffer.

   We have chosen not to disclose how many people we’re seeking for staff members as it will depend on the quality of the artwork received and the enthusiasm of the applicants that will ultimately affect our decision.

   For this call, we’re searching for DIGITAL scrapbookers as well as DIGITAL SCRAPBOOKING article/tutorial writers and designers.

   We’re looking for a variety of styles, skills and personalities, and you do not have to have advanced digital skills but they are a plus. Rather, we’re looking for artists that complement our existing staffers and magazine artwork. It's important to note that we are in need of eclectic and whimsical digital scrapbookers, although this is not the only style we'll be choosing for this call.

   Please do not try to guess what we’re looking for and tailor your application to your thinking as you may end up trying to put a square peg into a round hole. Instead, tell us about yourself and go ahead and sing your own praises. Be true to who you are and that will shine through more than putting on a good show. We also strongly encourage you not to check boxes that do not apply to you, your style, or your skills.

   Our goal is to make this a win/win relationship and putting your best foot forward is a must, but projecting a false image or a style that isn’t true to you will only hurt you and SNR in the long run. Since it is an at-will relationship, we will evaluate new staffers based on their applications as well as their attitude and willingness to participate once a part of our staff. If they do not live up to the standards they expressed in their application, SNR will end their position.

   We also ask that you do not contact any current staffers for information about SNR unless you already know them and they would be receptive to your questions. Otherwise, please feel free to ask them about the integrity and professionalism of our company.

   We will be accepting submissions from November 16, 2011 until December 15, 2011. Staffers will be announced within three weeks after the deadline.

Exact details of the position will be provided upon invitation only to become a SNR staffer. While we encourage questions regarding the application, we will not answer any questions that have not been addressed in the call.

Staffer Requirements:

• A minimum of 5-7 projects per month, depending upon your position with SNR.
• Provide artwork content for the front page as well as in the magazine (this is a part of the minimum projects per month).
• Actively and enthusiastically participate on our board, promote SNR, and contribute to SNR events.
• Have an appetite to learn and be willing to try new techniques; self-education is a plus.
• Work well with others in a team environment as well as work independently on your own projects.
• The most important attribute is the ability to meet all deadlines and turn in quality artwork that is worthy of your own approval.
