I am a Front-end developer and my company is looking to hire an Art director. We are an eCommerce company with about 20 websites so the Designer will have to be skilled in Web Design. I find that most of the local designers are print designers, so my question is to you guys
What are some good questions to ask a Graphic Designer or potential Art Director for a web based company focusing on developing their sites with the latest Web Standards and Design Techniques.
Since I am the Front end developer and I have a strong passion for Web Standards, Accessibility and all that I want to be able to ask some really good questions to see if the candidate will fit what I am looking for.
Ask them to describe the process they'd follow from client brief through to final product. What they say or don't say should tell you a lot about their views or knowledge of standards and best practices.
