Company: Pop Labs
Job Title: Web Design and Production Specialist
Description: As a member of the creative services team at Pop Labs, a Site Builder is responsible for building customer Web sites that meet modern web standards.

We are looking for talented, energetic design/production candidates with the ability to create visually stunning and modern web designs, who possess up-to-date design skills and an understanding of the web site development process. Experience building sites with XHTML and CSS based layouts (e.g. without using tables) an absolute must.

A Top Candidate will be:

• Proficient at hand coded XHTML and CSS
• Experienced with Photoshop and/or Fireworks
• Experienced with XHTML/CSS based layout production (semantic mark-up, cross browser compatibility)
• Experienced with accessibility issues (e.g. WCAG 1.0 or Section 508)

To Apply Candidates Should have:

• An online portfolio, demonstrating knowledge/experience creating XHTML/CSS based layouts
• 1+ years HTML/XHTML production, including using CSS for layout not just text styling
• A college degree or equivalent real world web production experience experience

I’m posting a request for a .NET Developer in the Job Board section of the site. And I wanted to remind anyone looking for a new gig to check that part of the site.

Hey folks, we’re going to be holding our October Refresh at the First National Bank building, home of FIBERTOWN, in downtown Bryan on Wednesday, October 24th, at 7PM.

Join Ed Schipul, from Houston-based Schipul – the Web Marketing Company, as he discusses the highs, lows and in between bits of starting your own technology company. Learn the basic economics of a new business, phases of a Web business and rules of being a billionaire. Are you crazy enough to start your own tech company? Then you definitely need to be here!!!

To find out more about the speaker, see Ed’s CV here: http://www.schipul.com/edcv/

This should be a good talk from someone who’s been in the industry for quite some time.

And by the way, this meeting marks our first 1/2 year (I just did the math!)
