Design After Class is the podcast for junior designers who want more than tutorials. You want context. You've learned the software, you've built the portfolio. Now what? Every episode goes beyond the tools and the timelines to explore the questions that actually shape a design career: How does the industry really work? What does 'good' look like, and who decides? How do you find your voice when you're just getting started? No gatekeeping, no jargon. Just real talk about what it actually means to be an interior designer, from day one and beyond. Whether you're fresh out of school, six months into your first role, or still figuring out what kind of designer you want to be, this is your seat at the table, early. For designers who ask why, not just how.

    How to Launch Your Interior Design Career | with Geeta Dhar and Andrew Brown

    You have the degree. You have the passion. But do you know what actually gets you hired? In a world where AI is reshaping every part of the job hunt, the rules have changed, and the designers who understand that early will have a serious edge. In this first episode of Design After Class, host Catherine Arnal sits down with Geeta Dhar, careers & employability consultant, and Andrew Brown of Your Career Approach, to break down everything you need to know about entering the industry with confidence. From writing a CV that gets past the algorithm to building a portfolio that actually tells your story, they cover the golden rules of job hunting (and the unwritten ones too). You'll hear what employers, recruiters, and career development managers are really looking for when they review your application, why your cover letter still matters more than you think, how to walk into an interview prepared, and how to use social media as a strategic tool rather than an afterthought. Honest, practical, and straight from the people on the other side of the table. Connect with our guests!
