Asking is The Only Way to Get What You Want: A Playbook for Junior Designers by Ezgi Elitok
Being a wide-eyed, hopeful junior designer on the lookout for a dream job sounds lovely until you’re hit with reality. Because the truth about entry level jobs in design is - unpaid internships, the Catch 22 conundrum of “lack of experience” and a serious test of perseverance, in this eye-opening episode of Space by Stansons, host Guy Stanley welcomes Ezgi Elitok to the podcast as she shares her trying journey of becoming an Interior Design Project Specialist at Corgan. She reveals the often-hidden realities of breaking into the design industry, including unpaid internships, portfolio challenges, and the resilience needed to turn rejections into opportunities.
Tune in to discover how authenticity, determination, and a positive mindset can transform career obstacles into stepping stones to success, and the criticality of building the design community into an accessible and inclusive one.
