Entry Level UX Research Apprenticeship

About the Program :

Every year, we sponsor 2 remote UX apprentices from anywhere in the world to join us for 7 months, either in the fall or spring seasons or online. Our UX apprentices work through the end-to-end UX design and UX research process for a startup idea of their choice that will help them attract hiring managers in that topic space or industry.

Apprentices take our program for free and receive 1 : 1 mentorship throughout the 7-month program. Alumni UX apprentices go on to make between $85,000 -$130,000 in UX design, product design, UX research, or service design roles after they complete the program.

We are committed to helping women, immigrants, POC, and LGBTQ folks break into tech and land 6-figure UX jobs. We help you land 6-figure UX jobs or coach you till you get it.

How to Apply :

Please fill out our application form to apply for UX Woman  sponsoring your participation in the program. The application takes 5 minutes to complete and will ask you to send in your LinkedIn profile and resume, as well as ask you about why you are interested in this program. You do NOT need to have a UX resume or portfolio to apply - we consider folks who are at the very beginning of their career change, who are still exploring multiple career options.

You will receive UX tips and challenges via email to help you with your transition into UX and will be contacted by us if you are being considered for the apprentice program. Once contacted, you will go through a brief interview process before joining the cohort. Due to the large volume of applicants, we cannot contact all applicants about their application status. If you don't hear from us about an interview within 2 months of applying, please consider your application closed. We consider applicants on a rolling basis.
