How does an interior design career evolve overtime? Are there steps towards a career after undergrad or do you just dive right in?

I am a freshman interior design major at Meredith College. I have only experienced the drafting and planning aspects of interior design so far. I want to know if there are different phases or parts of the overarching ID career.
