Job Description
Temporary Designer, Firstfinds

About Firstfinds: Firstfinds lets you shop everywhere. We're a curated commerce destination where pop culture obsessives meet rabid influencers to share, scrutinize, and shop products of the moment, in the moment. From micro-trends and dupes, to hacks and viral must-haves, we found it first.

What We Do: Firstfinds is the bridge between social entertainment, product inspiration, and transaction.
