Pearson Education Work Values

• Was responsible for conceptual development, photo research, design, and production of 50-80 main title covers per year plus their supplements. • Hired and supervised 10-20 freelance designers, illustrators, and photographers as needed. • Experienced working with 2-color and 4-color process printing. • Worked closely with editorial, development, and marketing teams to ensure that designs met the company's needs. • Managed schedules and budgets.

What they like about Pearson Education:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
