Prepress Operator SW Chicago Suburbs

[t-pat]

Need experienced (5+ years) operator. Must know Preps 6 hopefully including using JDF folding patterns, and have above average Pitstop skills. Of course, need to know Creative Suite, Quark, et cetera. No hacks, blood sausages, or trainees please. It's a small department so no room for BS.

Preference given to those with the above, plus packaging and VDP experience. We use XMPie.

Late 1st shift hours ideally 10-6 m-f, full time, Blue Cross, vacation, 401k. Smallish company with a diverse account base. We do web to print, mailings and personalized variable work, packaging, business stationery, envelopes for conversion. We run Prinergy Evo and have fairly new equipment in prepress (12 core Mac Pros with dual 24" monitors).

Southwest Chicago suburbs, near intersection of I294 and I55

Contact me via PM here. We're interviewing starting next week and hiring ASAP. I will be doing some of the interviewing but only can make recommendations. I will forward all resumes to the decision makers though.

I would love to work with many of the prepresser's here on b4 and if I was single I would pack up and move right now.

Good luck on your search.

If we all worked together it would be the sickest, most drunken prepress department on the planet. :laugh:

12-Core macs There are 3 of these and a couple 8-cores.

Sure you can commute, wtf do I care? We have guys commuting in 2 hours to work here. What's another 4 hours?

I'd consider it, but it's in Chicago and I don't do cold weather.

it is? I thought it was Detroit, Miami or Fresno... but Stockton looks to be on it's way up.

Sacramento is the stolen car capital of the world, but those bastards in Fresno are trying to get the title back.

ugh this is gonna get messy. Hiring someone not quite qualified on a "trial basis" and I think we're just wasting the guy's time.

And yours. You'll know within the first 15 minutes if he's a tard or not.
