UI Design Intern

Posted Mar 19

Are you a current post-secondary student looking for a summer internship?

Do you want to work with a thriving and creative agency?

Are you looking for a role that explores UI design? 

If you answered yes, then you're in the right place!

Let me start by introducing myself.

Hi, I'm Chloe! I'm a Visual Designer at Major Tom and have been with the agency for almost 3 years. I enjoy working on a variety of aspects of design from social media concepts to strategic marketing campaigns, with my main focus being UI. Beyond design, creativity finds its way into many aspects of my life whether it be through pottery, reading, or ways to keep my many plants thriving. As I was once an intern myself, I have lots of tips and tricks to make your experience a great one and am excited to support you along the way. 

Currently I'm looking for someone to join our team for a summer internship. While this position will have a focus on UI design, each day might look a little different as various other design related projects and tasks may be sent your way. Due to this I'm seeking someone who can be adaptable, is willing to embrace the unknown and is driven to learn new skills.

Some examples of the experiences you may have at Major Tom include:

  • Creating UI concepts and designs
  • Producing assets for Marketing Campaigns and Social Media
  • Presenting work to clients
  • Being told you're on mute during a Zoom call
  • Taking part in workshops
  • Collaborating with the UX, QA and Development teams

Some of the Benefits & Perks You'll Get:

  • Access to LinkedIn Learning and support in your professional development because we want to help you achieve your goals. 
  • wellness program including weekly meditation so you can take care of your mind. 
  • Regular Lunch and Learns covering a vast array of topics all designed to keep you informed on the industry and our agency. 
  • Access to internal committees. These committees ensure that everyone within our agency has the opportunity to learn about the different facets of our organization. Are you a project manager fascinated by work in the creative department? No problem, sign up and see how it's done.

This is an entry level role, you're not expected to know everything! Instead of hiring on knowledge, we hire based on passion, engagement, and your curious mind (which just so happens to be one of our company values, visit our site to learn the rest). If this sounds like you, please apply with a copy of your resume, answer the application questions, and tell me a little about yourself.

This is a paid internship with full-time hours from May to August 2023.
