About Our Internship Program:

Our Summer 2026 internship cycle takes place between June 1, 2026 – August 21, 2026.

This is a paid, hybrid educational internship. Our internship program runs for 12 weeks and provides our interns a hands-on learning experience unparalleled in the classroom. As an intern, you will report directly to a supervisor, explore your career field of interest, gain in-house agency experience, acquire new skills for resume building, and establish vital career networks and mentors.

Summary of Position:

As a Design Studio Intern at NVE, you will gain hands-on experience working across both graphic and experiential design—helping bring brand experiences to life from concept through execution.

This is not a passive internship. You’ll contribute to real client work, collaborate with a multidisciplinary creative team, and participate in the same studio rituals that shape our ideas and output.

It’s an opportunity to develop your craft, sharpen your point of view, and experience what it’s like to work inside a fast-paced, culture-driven creative agency.

What You’ll Work On:

Support the creation of visual assets across a range of brand experiences and campaigns (2D + 3D)
Assist in developing layouts, mockups, mood boards, and presentation materials
Contribute to brainstorming sessions and creative discussions
Help prepare design files for production and ensure accuracy and quality
Conduct research on visual trends, materials, cultural insights, and emerging tools (including AI) to inform creative work
Collaborate with designers, creatives, and cross-functional partners to bring ideas to life
Participate in internal reviews, critiques, and studio working sessions
Support the team across multiple projects in a fast-paced environment
Support an onsite load-in

What You’ll Learn:

How to translate brand ideas into physical and digital experiences
How creative concepts evolve from early thinking to real-world execution
How to work within a collaborative creative team across disciplines (design, concept, production, strategy)
How to present work, receive feedback, and iterate quickly
How to navigate real client timelines, constraints, and expectations
How emerging tools—including AI—can support and expand the creative process
What it means to build work that is rooted in culture—not just aesthetics

Who You Are:

You are currently pursuing (or recently completed) a degree in design, or a related creative field
You have a portfolio that shows your creative thinking and design potential (school or personal work is welcome)
You are curious, proactive, and excited to learn by doing
You have a strong foundation in design tools (Adobe Creative Suite; familiarity with 3D tools is a plus)
You have an interest in exploring emerging creative tools and technologies, including AI
You are open to feedback and eager to grow your skills
You bring a point of view—but also a collaborative mindset
You embody NVE’s core values of Ingenuity, Inclusivity, Instinct & Independence.
