If you're hiring a designer, don't you want one that pays an insane amount of attention to detail?

If you're hiring a designer, don't you want one that pays an insane amount of attention to detail?
- axod 18y agoNot useless details like if there's a space in a companies name or not. I think a designer can be taught to remember how a company likes it's name and product names spelt.
- gojomo 18y agoIt's not a useless detail; it's a bit of the company's chosen branding. You don't want to have to teach that to a designer -- they should just "get it". I'm sure such nitpicks would knock out some good candidates. It'll also knock out lots of bad candidates. As such, it might still be a good criterion. Only the long-term numbers could tell for sure. (And by reducing time spent on some hopeless candidates, it could free up more looks at worthwhile candidates. So it's not a simply a matter of "this is unfair to the N good people it eliminates". It may save so much time overall that it allows another M good people, M >> N, to be considered.)
