Any advice on internship hunting?
And suddenly, I do not know what I want to do. I am in the IT industry. Everything just feels so difficult and draining. I still do not know what I want to do. I don't have a knack for programming, networking or any other technical concepts. My experience is more on the UI/UX sector but deep in my head, I am not sure if I need confidence or am I just pretending I can do it. I vibe coded a web app for myself and realized...I cannot code without AI not especially the backend + connecting the logic... I am applying for an internship soon next week. I am not sure what role I want to explore but the requirement is something related to IT. In a very fast-paced industry, I am behind. This internship means a lot to me but it is just so hard.
How can I get into an UI UX internship?
Hi, Few months back, I've Posted this "I'm UI UX Design fresher. Struggling to get an internship." and lots of people commented on it thank you, I really appreciate for that and I couldn't able to reply to everyone. As a fresher, I'm still looking for an opportunity to get in to the industry with a mentor to improve my skills. Because I couldn't able to learn during my Master's. And my graduation which was not easy I struggled a lot and it was supposed to get on the year 2023 and I got it on this year Feb 2025. The graduation was mentioning 2023. Now it got created a gap. Actually they holded my certificate for no reason and there were lots of issue for me personally I was not getting right education so I was the one to stand against them to get right education and the whole department made a drama to protect themself to show they are providing education and finally I didn't get proper education, they delayed my degree. I can't go for another education because my family financially is very weak. Everyday I wake up by hearing advice and scolding from my parents. Each day is a worst day for around last two years and Its very hard to step outside my home because the culture according to my place is like the people talks behind me and it hurts when people ask - didn't you find job yet. and they will hurt my family only for one reason I'm jobless. and my problem is i'm not happy sitting at home. everyone will be jocking about me and giving advices they thinking I intentionally sitting at home in my dad's expense. And family is depending on dad's income that too not monthly fixed salary, its a daily wages. I was keep trying for more than two years. I have updated my resume and portfolio and applied for thousands of job related to UI/UX freshers, internship, Junior position. but I don't know why there is I only see "Rejected" I didn't even get a callback and I tried lots of platforms then later I posted on here. Someone commented by suggesting taproot. So I tried working on a volunteer based without any guidance that means stepping into the live project for the first time and now I completed designing the project which is a single donation page for a website. And I handed over the design to the development person it's now developing. This project I can showcase as an experience. According to me, I'm from a village. People in my locality doesn't know about designing field they say don't do anything for free. Every work has a value. But I can't make everyone realize that I'm not getting an internship in UI/UX, Because I don't have any contacts to refer me. For a job or an internship they need an experience. and for experience I need a Job or live project work so to break this loop I should do It for free that without any guidance. Thank you for the support. *Note: question edited by admin to remove personal information and adhere to guidelines
How can I get into an UI UX internship?
I'm UI UX Design fresher. Struggling to get an internship. I tried applying to lots of companies but some of them are been ghosted after I gave interview. And some companies don't even give a job application submission feedback. It's been 2yrs struggling to get an internship without an experience for getting an experience in UI UX Design. I don't have any connection in the UI UX Design field to refer or help me and give some insights.
