Currently Seeking: Greatest. Interns. Ever.

April 20th, 2012

If you know how this film ends, then you are not the greatest intern ever. Sorry.

If, however, the thought of lovelorn vampires induces a vomit reflex, then you may be just right for ELEVATEthinking. Now all you’ll need are some kick-ass samples that show you can do more than make pretty pictures.

We’re looking for thinkers – people that use creative firepower to blast out flaming balls of conceptual awesomeness.

Kind of like this:

That’s hot, huh?

But seriously, ELEVATE is searching for a couple of super-talented summer interns to chip in on developing creative solutions for our clients. And along the way, you’ll learn how ELEVATE makes its own special brand of gooey creative goodness.

So if you think you’ve got the creative chops to keep up with some of the most talented people in the biz, we’d love to hear from you.

But be warned: We’ll push you as far as your talent will take you.

Ya’ see, we’re not looking for spectators – we’re looking for participants. You’ll be expected to contribute to a highly collaborative creative team and take an active roll in the creative process. And if you can handle the occasional trip to Starbucks, you stand to learn a helluva lot about branding and design from some really amazing people.

As for us, when we’re not Googling images of vampires and dragons, we spend our days making our clients brands sparkle through engaging messaging and thoughtful design.

Our offices are in the heart of the Arena District and our kitchen is stocked with sugar and adult beverages. We work really hard but we also believe that this industry should be fun – and we make sure that it is.

So if you think you’ve got what it takes, and you wouldn’t mind listening to creatives argue over the music playing in the studio, send us your stuff.

If you’re the shiz-nit, we’ll call you back.

Are you ready to run with the wolf pack?

March 16th, 2011

Imagine a wicked-smart wolf pack with deadly brand design skills. And fangs.

BRAND DESIGN FANGS.

Now imagine that wolf pack is one of the coolest brand design shops in Columbus. Then imagine their den is a kick-ass studio space in the heart of the Arena District. And further imagine that wolf pack is looking for interns.

Okay, stop imagining for a second: ELEVATEthinking actually is looking for summer interns.

So if you’re an aspiring copywriter or graphic design major, and you have the burning passion, oversized brain and razor-sharp skills required to dimensionalize brands in all directions, you might have a place to prowl this summer.

Our design intern will shadow and assist the Creative Team in all capacities from concepting to production to running the music.

Our copywriting intern will serve at the whim of our Senior Writer and in turn master the finer points of snappy headlines, engaging body copy and functioning as studio DJ.

Both interns will work independently and as a team, and in addition to their daily tasks, will be expected to witness and document the ELEVATEthinking process.

Send us your best work, and if you get the call, you’ll have a front row seat to a crash course criss-crossed by experience whirlwinds and the occasional Costco run. More importantly you’ll be expected to own projects from kickoff to wrap up, and be involved at every step.

BUT BE WARNED: THIS IS NO WOLF PACK OF ONE.

ELEVATEthinking is a highly collaborative environment where you’ll be working with the deadliest designers, writers and account people in town. That’s what our clients deserve, and baby, that’s what they get.

ARE YOU READY TO HOWL? FINE.

But are you ready to be a huge asset to ELEVATEthinking, our clients, and your fellow wolf pack members?

We’ll see about that.
