Our internship program is heavily-based on practice, but we’ve got you covered with a curated learning path which includes several courses and trainings according to the theme of each week. You’ll involve team meetings and activities to observe how it’s like to be a designer in Commencis.
In this 6-week compressed program, we aimed to help you analyze a project from end to end, to be involved in all design processes, and to clarify your career goals by learning and developing. At the end of the process, you will conduct a case study and present the outputs obtained during your time here.
Week 1
Learn how it’s like to be a Commencer! Onboard to our design team, get to know our processes and tools better. Meet your mentors, and start your research.
Week 2-3
Learn more about user experience design basics. Keep in touch with your mentors and the team. Start your design project while you are walking through the learning path.
Week 4-5
Deep dive into UI design basics and create a visual language for your “product”. Give a life to your design and test out your prototype to validate your ideas.
Week 6
It’s show time! Prepare a case study while learning how to prepare one. Present your train of thoughts, design journey and final outputs to the team.
The 6-week Future Commencer Summer Internship program will start on July 25 and will last until September 2, 2022.
We will get the applications via LinkedIn and our web site. The resumes and portfolios of the applicants will be evaluated. Our goal is to hire motivated, enthusiastic, and interested 3rd and 4th year design students.
We’ll have a hybrid program. You can work remotely, but those who wish can also work from the office (some participants from the previous year worked from the office.)
We expect the university to cover the students’ insurance during their internship period. We pay a salary, provide Sodexo meal card and pay commute expenses during the intern period.
All our interns can benefit from the Summer Campus.
We have a project that is specifically designed for the internship program. You’ll start working on the project as soon as you receive the brief on the first day! You are expected to do an end-to-end design analysis as a team and to come up with a concept product.
The 6-week process will begin with the research methods, then the results will be analyzed, and problems will be identified. Following the clarification of flows and wireframes, concept designs will be completed and ready for transfer. All outputs will be compiled into a case study and presented in the last week.
According to the theme of each week, you will take lessons from your mentors, and you will be able to reach them and ask their questions whenever you want. In addition, you will have the chance to reinforce your knowledge through a specially prepared learning path and observe good practices by participating in the team meetings.
We will work in Figma throughout the whole process. It would be nice to have a little review before joining us, but if you’ve never used it before, don’t worry, we’ve planned a little tutorial for you.
It is very critical to be a good team player, be open to developing new skills, and not hesitate to ask questions and listen to feedback. Good communication and collaboration skills are essential. We are looking for candidates with an interest in user experience and interface design.
There can be part-time or full-time job opportunities for our interns after the internship period. Interns may be suitable candidates for permanent roles depending on the job requirements and the needs. Those who are interested in applying are evaluated according to their performance.
