| | | (position filled) Junior Retoucher Job Opening in NYC Hey guys, the company I work for is looking for 1 or 2 junior retouchers. I'm not sure how much they earn, but I'm sure there's possibility for growth. This is full-time, on-site work in Tribeca/Soho neighborhood.
A junior retoucher is basically, from my understanding, someone with a year or two of high-end retouching experience. They have a really good grasp of Photoshop, but are mainly retouching, not meeting with clients or anything.
Anyone interested? Lemme know. It's a great company.
This ISN'T a job for beginning retouchers, or people barely learning Photoshop. And definitely not for recreational Photoshop users, or for those who blur skin. The job's for people with experience.
Thanks  |

| | | Re: Junior Retoucher Job Opening in NYC Maybe not something you're allowed to post here but generally what salary range are you talking about? I've been curious about jumping ship for a Jr. position for some time now buy the extreme cut in salary has always been an issue. |

| | | Re: Junior Retoucher Job Opening in NYC That's my ballpark guess in salary, as well.
And Ant, nah, you definitely don't know me. I'm new to NY, less than 8 months here. |

I live in Manhattan, and I wouldn't survive on that. But many others live in the outer burroughs or Jersey.
At any rate, it's the starting position at the company where I am. Always potential for growth.
Anyone else interested, just shoot me a pm. |

Thanks  | Hey -
I see there is a position open for a junior retoucher. I graduated from the School of Visual Arts about a year ago. I've been trying to break out into the retouching industry for a while, and I'm interning at Channel Thirteen right now in the photography department retouching, archiving, scanning, etc. I am extremely interested in the job. I know my stuff and I' m quick learner. Let me know. I can send a resume.
