  • Document design decisions and provide clear specifications for development.

  • Contribute to discovery and user research activities on select projects.

  • Present and communicate design concepts to clients with confidence, guiding discussions and building consensus through workshops and reviews.

  • Mentor junior designers by modeling process, providing constructive feedback, and fostering professional growth.

  • Share fresh ideas, contribute to team brainstorms, and help evolve Teal’s creative processes.

  • Support business development by contributing to case studies and showcasing our design work.

  • Strong understanding of the website design and development process, including working knowledge of HTML/CSS, taxonomies, content structures, and CMS platforms (WordPress, Drupal)

  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills, with confidence presenting to and guiding clients

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
