Best places to find work as graphic designer and visual artist

Domestika

I want to start with the Domestika portal, well known not only for its courses, but also for the possibility it offers us to publish our work and create a small portfolio. We can make a search filter to show us the offers that most interest us geographically, by type of contract or discipline. It lacks an option that allows us to filter the offers by salary, but here the offers that we can find are very top.

Stratos

Stratos is defined as a meeting point for developers, although it also welcomes visual artists, mainly in the field of video games and mobile applications, but also in film and multimedia. This is a spanish website so we will find job offers from spanish companies that you can filter by fields. Currently it has a lot of activity, daily they publish new offers from all parts of the country.

It also has a collaboration section similar to the job offers section, but for projects or startups that are just starting and need collaboration. If you are young and want to get experience and contacts it can be a good opportunity.

Hitmaker

Hitmaker, like Stratos, works mainly in the fields of video games and mobile applications. In it you will find companies like Rockstar, Nintendo or Ubisoft, the most leading companies in the industry. They also have a blog section where they publish tips to start our career in the world of video games and the latest news in the sector.

If you want to take advantage and not miss any of their content, I advise you to follow them on their Linkedin profile.

Artstation

Artstation is a community of artists who move mainly in the field of film, audiovisual media and video games internationally, in which, with a simple glance at the works of its members, we can get an idea of the quality and talent that we have in front of us. They give us the option to create a small portfolio of your best work and use it as a presentation in the work section.

Here we meet the top international companies such as Ubisoft, Naughty Dogs, Gameloft or Blizzard Entertainment. If you are willing to travel and work side by side with the best talent, here you have a great opportunity, don’t let your pulse tremble!

Besides, among its search filter options we have the option to choose those companies that request workers remotely, which is a very attractive option.

No todo animación

Create a good portfolio because here you have the best job offers for digital artists. Job offers in the industry of 2d animation, 3d, illustration and vfx for film, video games and TV. In addition to reviewing and selecting the best offers for creatives throughout the network, they have their own section for companies to publish their job offers after reviewing them, to ensure the highest quality in their publications.

Michael Page

Michael Page is a human resources consultancy based in many countries and has been awarded the Top Employer Institue certificate recognizing its continuous effort to provide the best conditions for its candidates.

Here is their link to Spain, but if you want to cross borders you can check their UK website. They also have other offices around the world that you can find here.

Behance

En Behance encontramos empresas de cualquier parte del mundo, pero principalmente de EE.UU. en una gran variedad de disciplinas, desde diseño corporativo, diseño web UI/UX, Motion Graphics, Modelado 3D, Conpcet artist, etc…Tampoco pierdes nada por intentarlo, eso si, tu nivel de inglés es igual o más importante que tu talento creativo.

On Behance we find companies from all over the world, but mainly from the USA in a wide variety of fields, from corporate design, UI/UX web design, Motion Graphics, 3D Modeling, Conpcet artist, etc… You don’t lose anything for trying.

Love design jobs

I recently discovered this website through the Creative Bloq portal and they have partnered by including a link in their main navigation to offer a large catalog of job offers around the world, with more than 100 new publications per day. The drawback is that it is a repository and most of the offers we find we must access the portal where it was originally published to send our application.

The dots

The-dots is a social network with a very clear idea: to connect, support and defend the people, teams and companies that make ideas a reality… Because in a world where machines are taking over and often replacing human beings, what role do we play professionally? What are humans still good for? The answer is: Creativity!

It is a network of creators and dreamers, collectively creating a better future. The platform was born in 2014 by Pip Jamieson out of a true passion for making the creative industries more open and diverse. Companies as powerful as Spotify, Amazon, Square or Facebook make use of The-dots to select their staff, a good indication to get an idea of the power of this tool to take a step further in your professional career.

Creativeshead

In Creativeshead we find job offers for creative minds in the video games, visual effects and designers sector around the world, although it is true that most of them are in the USA. It is not bad to have as an additional resource but it is far from other websites, we hope that over time they improve both in quality and quantity. We will have to be attentive.
