New Job Ads on CreativePro.com
Last week, CreativePro.com and Coroflot joined forces to offer you the new Creative Jobs service.

Job seekers can browse hundreds of listings from design and creative firms all around the industry. New jobs appear every day, so be sure to check back frequently. While companies that post their jobs do have to pay a fee, job seekers don't pay a dime!

Here are some of my favorite recent job listings:

Junior Art Director/Graphic Designer for a chain of boutique hotels
Freelance Senior Graphic Designer for the Arnell Group
Senior Graphic Designer for the Walker Art Center

Whether you're looking to pick up freelance assignments or a new full-time gig, visit our Creative Jobs service.
