| | | Dream Job: Apple Looks For 3D Modeler For Concept Products
Quote:
Apple is advertising a rare job in its storied design department — and it’s a cool one.
Apple is looking for a computer modeling expert to make 3D renderings of concept products.
Whoever gets the job will be one of the first people in the world to get a peek at whatever Apple is working on. Only CEO Steve Jobs and a handful of top executives get to see products in development.

Dezeenjobs: Apple in California are looking for a CAD sculptor/digital 3D modeler:
CAD Sculptor/Digital 3D Modeler
CAD sculptor/digital 3D modeler needed to create high quality CAD models used in the industrial design and development of new products. This is not a design position.
The CAD sculptor is responsible for interpreting and defining the design intent of the industrial designer using Alias software while working with mechanical engineering, manufacturing and tooling requirements. 3D CAD data is used to develop product concepts and details for appearance models and renderings as well as production level surfaces used for engineering and tooling.
This position requires an advanced understanding and use of 3D surface modeling software, preferably Alias Studio or Rhino. Also helpful if the candidate is familiar with rendering/ visualization software tools, various CAD file format translations, and mechanical design of molded plastic parts.
The CAD Sculpting team is integral to the design and development of current and future Apple products. Candidate must have excellent problem solving and interpersonal skills and must be deadline-driven. At least one to three years experience in industrial design, model making, and product design, or related field is desired; however, a recent graduate with the right skill set will be considered.
Proficiency in Alias Studio or a similar surface modeler is required, and an understanding of Unigraphics or other solid modeling CAD packages is preferred. BS or BA in Industrial Design, Transportation Design, 3D Animation/Modeling, Fine Arts or Engineering desirable.
Candidates must keep in mind that this is not a designer position nor is it a stepping-stone to a designer position.
Please submit resume and portfolio to cadjob@apple.com |

| | | I just put "Apple didn't hire me" on my resume.
I also couldn't get hired at Playboy, Valve, Maxim, Univision, TBS, Samsung, Disney and Dreamworks.
This is great, I have a whole new section on my resume, almost a full page now.

| | | 1. Experience has taught me there are no dream jobs, just jobs.
2. Apple already employs people who do this exact thing, in fact I know someone who works for them doing modeling. | | |
