The intern will assist our senior graphic designer with current marketing projects, including assisting with photo shoots and retouching, saving images to required specification for web, packaging layouts, creating package mock-ups, and general file organization and maintenance.

The intern will be required to live locally and have reliable transportation, as the work will be performed out of our Fairport Harbor Ohio location. Pay rate is $10 per hour and requires approximately 15-25 hours per week. The internship will begin in mid June, depending on your school schedule, and end in August.

We are a pet products company, and we do have a policy of allowing employees to bring in pets to work. There will be dogs/cats in the office so you will need to be pet friendly.
