Design An internship is one of the very best ways to explore the possibility of working as an interior designer. Internships are taken under the guidance of professional designers at interior design offices and architectural firms. Along the way interns will gain a wealth of practical experience and a valuable resume item.
Employers favor entry-level job candidates with internship experience.
