Want to use a Sunday afternoon this summer to help share your experience with a nonprofit org that pairs low income high school students with industry mentors?

Close the Gap Foundation is looking for more panelists for our summer workshop series, where we invite industry leaders to sit on fireside chat panels and answer questions about topics that are meant to enrich and expand students knowledge outside of topics they typically teach in standard education

Hey this sounds really cool. Where is Close the Gap located or are these events nationwide? I'll definitely look into it and talk to some of my designer colleagues about it. Thanks for sharing!

Amazing — if you want to forward this to anyone that would be great. Close the gap is based in California and the mentors and nationwide. All events are fully remote

If more entry level people within the industry are welcome I would love the opportunity!

What’s the contact information to get involved?

Do you have a link where we can check out more information? This sounds really cool. I would love to be a part of this.

This sounds great! I would like to learn more details.

Hey fishies! I’m looking to take a leap into the remote world. I am a Sr. Graphic designer and art director in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦. I’m looking to take on more of an art director and creative director role, remotely. I can attach my website and a portfolio if anyone can help out. I have been designing professionally now for just over 15 years now. I work very quickly and very well with other team members. I also take on freelance work. I’m married with 2 kids so the more work the better.

Should i apply and then email someone? In HR? Or someone who’d be directly supervising me? Or someone at my level? And what should i say? Thanks!

Question! I just moved(transferred) to another team of my company and received new title, graphic & creative services. I was a senior graphic designer at the previous team. What do you think about my new title? I know that title is not a big thing but why I feel like my title is downgraded here… Good thing is my jobs here at my current team are what I really wanted to do. This is amazing. I love my new team and people here! Super healthy working environment! But just curious about the title.
