This company’s motto is “improve the world around us, through design, one experience at a time.”In this role, you will own the creation of long-term client research and will work as an individual contributor alongside visual designers.

Note: Great presentation skills are a must, as you will be in front of people quite often. Collaboration comes easily to you, and you can collaborate when prototyping designs using tools like Invision and Figma. You’re super-interested in the research side of this position and you enjoy playing an advisor, or mentor-like role. You’re a well-rounded, caring person — when someone needs help, you are the first to roll up your sleeves.The Inside SkinnyWhy you should quit your job right now and join this organization!This is truly a people-first company where self-care and work-life balance are taken seriously.
