✧ OPEN! ✧ Starry Night Designs Applications Thread ✧


Welcome to Starry Night Designs' Application Thread!
This was inspired by Buzzy Bee Banners' Hiring Process!
Applicant Requirements
  1. Must have “Scratcher” status
  2. Must have previous experience with graphics design and use a design program like Canva or PixlrX
  3. Must have worked in at least one shop
  4. Must know how the “Requests” forum works.
  5. Must have at least 20 posts
Application Process
  1. I, Milky, and other Board of Stargazers Members will look at each application and decide if we want to take them through to a “mock shop” or not. (This was inspired by Buzzy Bee Banners)
    > If you weren't chosen for the mock shop; this may be because you didn't fit the requirements.
    > If you weren't chosen for the mock shop and you did meet the requirements; you will be put through “training” which will happen in a separate forum or studio.
  2. If you were chosen to be a part of our Mock Shop; the staff act as customers and you must be the staff! You show us how you work in our “workplace environment” and you can make the choice if you'd like to continue through the process if the shop is right for you or if the show isn't right for you, in which case you can drop out.
    > If you were chosen to go through training instead; you'll move onto this stage too at some point! You're either going to be in a separate mock shop from the others who went through training like you did if over five people did it. If not; you will be placed into a mock shop with a new set of applicants!
  3. After that, we decide on offers - who we're going to hire and we thought was the best fit and who we will reject and who we thought weren't good fits for the shop.
Training
Training is kind of like Buzzy Bee's Banner Bootcamp. However, you will start from a vauge order to full-blown, detailed orders. Each assignment you do; you will get feedback. You then use the feedback to improve on your design and come back better for your next assignment.

Hello Milky, not sure how to apply, but here we go…

Some examples (made with Canva).
—I work at Water Otters and I run my own shop.
—The requests forum has two ways of use: You can make a topic requesting something or you can ask a shop to do it.
—I have almost 300 posts

Why do you want to be a part of Starry Night Designs?

I generally love designing and it sounds like a cool thing to be a part of especially as I start to (try to) transition back into using the forums and making banners and designs just appeal to me and Starry Night just seems interesting and I'd love to be able to join ^^

Link to three past designs: Made today | Really old | Even older oh gosh
Design programs you use: Canva for designing, Google Fonts for the occasional fonts if I happen to need them
Image host you use: CubeUpload & Scratch (If necessary)
Past shop experience:

(A long time ago on a different account; since resigned from these shops and had a BoD position for some) TIPS, The Emerald Shop 3.0, The Strawberry Shop, The GOC, Glorious Night Image Hosting, and a few of your other shops along with the ones I created solely

Do you know how the “Requests” forum works? Yes :]

Bump - I forgot to mention I also use Canva, and I’m decent at paper drawing too. If you would like a custom example of my art, just ask. I am also active almost always, I check my messages several times per day, and I’ve been on Scratch for almost four years (3yrs 10mo). I am fair at animating, and I would greatly appreciate if you would seriously consider my application.
