Apprenticeships

For recent graduates or those exploring new careers, we offer three- to six-month apprenticeships. Apprentices work under a senior designer, developer, or producer to hone their skills and explore professional opportunities in their field.

Interested individuals should send a resume, cover letter, and availability details to us at joinus@secondstory.com. For design apprenticeships, a design portfolio for review is required. For development positions, code samples should be provided. For all other positions, please provide any supplemental material that speaks to your experience.
