Graphic & Editorial Design Expert — micro1

This is a reviewing job for people who lay out pages for a living. micro1 is collecting judgement on graphic and editorial design, which in practice means posters, book covers, page layouts and brand pieces, each paired with a brief. You decide which version is stronger for that brief and that audience, then account for the choice. The criteria are the ones you already apply without thinking: whether the hierarchy tells the reader where to look first, whether the spacing breathes or crowds, whether the type is doing the right work at the right weight, whether text and image are in conversation or just adjacent. Then there is the part that separates editorial designers from generalists.

You are expected to catch the faults that are invisible on screen and expensive on press: wrong format, low resolution, margins too tight to trim, color that will shift in CMYK. Pay is $50–$105/hr, 50 openings, worldwide. No prior AI experience is required.
