Mentorship is a crucial factor in the professional development of a junior graphic designer. For this purpose, students are coached to market themselves as valued candidates for positions in industry by presenting their portfolios in an interview scenario. Their work is also featured in a graduation showcase event they organize together. The goal of these activities is for students to secure a position for their six-week internship where they will be mentored by professional designers working on real-world client projects.

See the list of Fieldwork employers who’ve either taken students in the past, or have expressed interest in taking someone on. Don’t limit yourself to this list! If you’ve found someone new, feel free to ask me to get in touch with them to establish expectations for Fieldwork.
