Web Designers

The web designer's primary role is to create and maintain all front-end aspects of the Blizzard web presence.

Qualities we look for: We are looking for candidates who are hard-working and dependable, who have a strong desire to learn, and who have an extra-curricular interest in technology. Candidates must have excellent written and oral communication skills and a passion for games.

Here are the 'ideal' skills that a candidate should know.

  • Strong graphic-design skills, artistic sense, and fluency in Photoshop
  • Strong XHTML and CSS skills
  • Proficiency creating interactive, animated web designs with Adobe Flash
  • Familiarity with web scripting languages like JavaScript and ActionScript
  • Knowledge of browser-compatibility issues
  • Passion for web design and gaming
How to get in: The web design team is looking for a strong graphic artist who can create exciting website layouts in the Blizzard art style and implement them using standards-compliant XHTML/CSS markup. Your portfolio should contain URLs of sites that show your design sense and creativity. Also, as part of the portfolio, please create a Blizzard-related sample layout and implementation (so we can review the coding). The work you submit should demonstrate how you would create a Blizzard-themed page. Examples of appropriate submissions would be a Blizzard product page (such as http://www.worldofwarcraft.com) or a page based on some aspect of a Blizzard game (such as http://www.battle.net/war3/nightelf).
