The Oakland Post - Graphic Designer

APPLICANTS MUST SUBMIT SAMPLES OF THEIR WORK

- Designers are responsible for the creation and design of their designated pages
in each print issue of The Oakland Post.
- As a designer, you must be available to work production days — typically, this will
be Mondays and Tuesdays.
- You are responsible for the pages the editor-in-chief assigns you for each issue.
- It is not your responsibility to take on other editors’ pages unless you are specifically
asked to do so.
- Communicate with your supervisor effectively.
- Proofread the stories on your pages for grammatical and/or stylistic errors.
- When you do this, you should also copy the story from SNO and paste it into a Microsoft
Word document to spell check it.
- Once you’ve done that, you should copy the text from the Word document and paste that
onto the page you are creating in InDesign.
- Utilize InDesign to ensure that, visually, The Post is in accordance with the fundamentals
of design.
