My team was tasked with creating a new feature for a current app or website. All three of us shared our frustrations in finding a job in the creative field when typical applications aren't designed to show your work. I brought up the idea of needing a Dribbble like job board which then launched the idea for Dribbble Jobs.
Applying for jobs in the creative technology field isn't any different than applying to be an accountant. Current applications place education and experience over design. The design work is what matters most to an employer.
Create an additional feature on Dribbble to allow applicants to put their work first.
