Most companies don't have the time to invest in new designers. DIA prides itself in providing a safe environment for early career and transitioning professionals to flex their skills and develop their portfolio by pairing them with senior coaches.
Since the beginning, DIA promotes apprenticeship and pair design through teaming up an experienced UX strategist with a less experienced designer. Anyone can apply to be an apprentice at DIA. In fact, everyone on the team is assumed to be an apprentice because we believe that everyone is constantly learning and developing their skills.
Not yet. DIA does not offer paid apprenticeships at the moment, unless the apprentice is working with a paying client or sponsored project.
Anyone who has some understanding of UX foundational skills and have some transferable skills in research, design, and or development.
