Career Path Exploration: What to Expect

Learn about what to expect in your first job and the many career paths in design.

Part of being an intern is making connections with professionals who will offer guidance on potential career options and next steps after graduation. Conversations with practitioners about their first jobs out of school can be very valuable, giving you a chance to hear how they got started and how their paths have evolved with more experience. Hear from mid-career designers as they describe their career path, with a particular focus on their first job out of school.
