Looks like hiring is on the upswing in the Design District! Last Friday I posted a part-time entry level design assistant position and up this week are two openings with great potential!
First up, the folks at Renaissance Tile & Bath in the Dallas Decorative Center are looking for a design/sales consultant.
And, I’m also including a job listing for my fabulous friends at The Matchbox Studio — the creative design firm responsible for the fun & funky design of LowerOakLawn.com! While they might not be in the Dallas Design District, they used to be, and have plenty of roots here, too!
Check out details on both jobs and information on how to apply after the jump.
