PRESS RELEASE
Graduates help build business links all the way from down-under
The work of a virtual agency that uses the talent of local design graduates has caught the attention of a company all the way from Australia.
Creative Protege, based at York St. John University, guarantees inexperienced designers 3 months work experience with live briefs from top companies. As a result of the innovative, fresh and imaginative portfolio of graduate work displayed online, one Australian firm decided to make Creative Protege its first choice in graphic design.
Ian Rigby, Managing Director of Creative Protege, said: “It amazes me at the quality of work that the graduates provide us with. It is as a result of this that Business Because contacted us, all the way from Australia, and wanted to work with us in developing their website. It will be up to the management team at Creative Protege to liaise with the business and delegate the work, but up to graduates to complete the task.”
Being a virtual agency, Creative Protege is not limited by physical space or logistics. Complimented by the high quality of work, courtesy of the young design enthusiasts, the number of businesses approaching Creative Protege is growing every day.
As a result of the continued business development and expansion, Creative Protege is not only providing work experience, but the chance for companies to see exactly the level of graduate talent that might otherwise go unnoticed.
“Many companies that use our services offer financial and freelance rewards if the design fulfils the brief. It looks fantastic on their CV and helps incredibly with making their portfolio look more commercial. We would ask any business to come and see what our graduates are capable of.”
