HISTORY:
Brainstorm Creative Resources has supported the client organization in an ongoing capacity since 2017, on a wide variety of design and editorial projects. Multiple Brainstorm Creative Resources-referred freelancers have developed enduring working relationships with organization stakeholders.
WORK LOCATION:
This is a fully remote, 100% work-from-home, freelance opportunity. All work can be done from the location of your choice in the United States. The organization seeking support is in Washington, DC.
RATES:
Brainstorm Creative Resources actively counsels its clients to pay competitively so that we can do the same. For the scope of work described above we are suggesting an intentionally broad rate range of $45/hour - $80/hour. As always... It is unlikely (but not impossible) that we will offer earlier career applicants a rate near the top of the stated range. Alternatively, highly experienced professionals at any point in their careers whose resumes indicate substantial, relevant experience can expect that we will make a strong case to our client, to pay you near or at the top of the range -- or possibly beyond.
Actual rates offered will be commensurate with your experience and current market norms and will also largely be based on the following factors: credentials as detailed in your resume, your portfolio or other example work submitted, your initial interactions with Brainstorm Creative Resources and/or the hiring organization, and quality of reference providers and references provided.
APPLICATION:
Brainstorm Creative Resources is a recruiting and staffing firm that has been focused on placing creative and editorial professionals into freelance and full-time positions with Washington, DC-area employers since 2003.
