Outsource graphic designers to the Philippines

Graphic designers need to be creative, no surprise there. However, just as much as they need to create attention-grabbing visuals, they also need to ensure the creative resonates with the intended audience. They need to be able to undertake positive criticism from project managers and marketing specialists, even if their original concept needs to be changed to meet stakeholder requirements. Keeping on top of design trends and changes to a businesses brand identity is essential. 

Outsourcing services recruit graphic designers the same way an internal, talent acquisition team would. Essentially, they ask the same questions to understand whether these offshore candidates would be able to provide the level of quality required by Australian organisations:

• What experience and knowledge do you have working as a graphic designer or in a similar marketing design function?
• How familiar are you with analysing visual market trends and applying them to projects or campaigns?
• Do you have a portfolio of work you can share?
• How do you ensure excellent communication when liaising with relevant stakeholders, to emulate their design vision?
• What organisation and project management tools have you used?
• Provide an example of how you showcased a high level of accuracy and attention to detail.
• What design software and tools are you familiar with? Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign?

In terms of qualifications, a higher education degree or certificate in graphic design or design is essential. Outsourcing companies can help you find the right candidate to meet your organisation's marketing requirements by hiring these qualified designers who create visual content to meet the marketing campaign and project design requirements of your business.

How does hiring an outsourced graphic designer work?

This first step is to find out if your business is offshore ready. If the answer is yes, here are the next steps:

• Create a job description: to help us hire the right candidate for your role. We can also assist in this process to ensure we are finding the best talent in the current local market. 
• Source the right candidate: we source candidates across our database and the local market before presenting you with a shortlist of the most suitable candidates available. 
• Screen and interview: you screen, interview and select the candidate(s) you’d like to hire while we take care of the infrastructure set up to get them ready to work for your business. It’s usually around six to eight weeks to get your offshore staff up and running.
• Onboard and train: your business, along with the operational assistance of our offshore management team, organise new staff onboarding and training, including the use of your systems, any relevant processes and workflows they may need and an overview of your company values and culture. This will help your new team member fit seamlessly into your organisation and assist in effective change management with your existing onshore team members.
