Design interfaces and user flows in Figma for apps, websites, and digital products. In a host company, you work in English alongside an international team and turn a scoped brief into work the team can use — with a named supervisor reviewing your progress.

Your exact project depends on your host company. Across placements, you move from a clear brief through structured work to an outcome the team can use.

A scoped live project
A defined piece of work, reviewed by a supervisor and useful to the host team.
The final decision
Senior sign-off, full project ownership, and the final commercial or creative decision. You contribute to them, but you do not carry them alone.
A host team needs a clearer, stronger answer to a live design brief. You take a defined part of the work, gather the right inputs, develop an option the team can review, and improve it from feedback. You can explain the brief, your process, and the outcome in your next interview because it was your work.
Placements are matched to your level, so you do not need prior full-time experience.
