About the role
Practise turning a small user task into a wireframe and prototype. You will learn to explain why a screen is arranged a certain way and use review observations to improve it.
What you will practise
- Describe a user's goal, sketch more than one approach and identify the information needed at each step.
- Record where someone hesitates in a practice walkthrough and propose a focused revision.
What you will learn
- Learn to connect a design decision to a user's task and hand over screens that explain behaviour as well as appearance.
- Document your work, respond to feedback, and explain what is ready for review and what still needs help.
What you should bring
- Familiarity with a design or prototyping tool and a sample showing how you organise a page or screen.
- Willingness to ask questions, keep clear notes, and revise work after feedback. Professional experience is not required.
Examples of work in this role
- A simple journey map, wireframe and revised prototype for the same task.
- A short observation log that distinguishes what happened from your interpretation.
Working arrangements
- Keep progress, questions, and blockers visible through the agreed communication channels.
- Availability, working hours, equipment needs, and any location eligibility requirements will be discussed during recruitment.
- Training tasks require review. Supervision, school requirements, training hours, start date, and any allowance must be agreed before the placement begins.
- Live systems, publishing, and client commitments require authorisation. Begin with practice environments or reviewed drafts appropriate to the task.
What to include in your application
- Use the application form and include your CV, availability, and a short explanation of why this work interests you.
- Include a school or personal project where possible. If this is a school OJT placement, state your course, required hours, intended dates, and any school documentation requirements.
- Share a practice interface and explain the task it supports. Include an earlier sketch if it helps show how your thinking changed.
- Share only work you have permission to disclose. A redacted sample or a clear explanation is fine when client work is confidential.
