So you’ve been applying for graphic design jobs and you got the interview! Congratulations— obtaining an interview is a great first step! However, nailing it takes just as much work. As a student applying to KEEN Creative for my first design job, this is definitely something I wish I knew more about when I first started the job search.

In our digital age, how a company brands itself is more important than ever. Companies seem to be recognizing this, and many are investing more into their marketing. But it’s expensive,  causing more companies to opt for using stock photos with their marketing collateral versus having custom photography taken.

We opened our doors to our new office on Tuesday, July 4 and we are settling into our new digs and discovering our new building. Combined with KEEN Print & Sign, we now have more space for our KEEN team as well as more meeting space and group areas. Our Sherwood Park office closed in the afternoon of Thursday, June 29 and we started to pack our belongings for the big move.

As a third-year marketing student, I know that meaningful internships are a vital part of growth into the “real world.” As much as I have learned in the classroom, from teachers, or from a textbook, it can’t compare to the experiences I’ve had working in various settings. I have been extremely fortunate to work in many different cultures and be a part of several different teams.

KEEN Creative would like to thank you for your continued support throughout the past 14 years of our history. Your patronage, partnership, and business, along with our talented team, creative approach, and unique offering has allowed our organization to thrive and grow over this time.

Could you imagine a world without the arts, without summer festivals (we are known as the festival city), or without the community groups and organizations who support our neighbourhoods in all ways imaginable? I don’t know about you, but I certainly can’t!

Dear design students,

Why should you care about the data from your website? Do you know who your customers are? Do you care? Of course you do! Every great business is client focused. A website is becoming the most important communication tool that a business can utilize.
