Wonderland
new

talent
program

You’ve done the hard yards, put in the
effort, and got yourself this far! Now the
fun can really start and you can put your
passion into practice as part of an
award-winning studio alongside our team
of talented creatives.

Open position

We’re looking for multidisciplinary
designers at the start of their careers to
join our team and gain some hands-on
experience within our studio. Over the
course of the six-month traineeship, you’ll
gain experience in both client-facing
design work and in developing your own
professional skills.

Our trainees work side-by-side with our
senior designers, strategists, and client
managers, and have an equal voice at every
table when it comes to deciding design
directions.

Through our traineeship, the successful
applicants are offered the opportunity to
not only grow as a professional but also to
gain studio support in developing their own
personal project. Regardless of whether it’s
a side hustle, a business idea, or a
graduation project that you feel has legs
beyond the classroom, we’re here to help
you carry it forward and turn it into
something real. All that we ask in return is
that your project is built around a positive
impact, such as education or sustainability.
Seems like a fair trade, right?

Traineeship
Curriculum

The six months are split 50/50 between
client work and your personal project,
however, this can vary from
week-to-week, depending on deadlines
and deliverables.

client work

As a Wonderland trainee, you will work with
our team on a variety of projects across our
studio, with no restrictions on discipline,
client, or skillset. Our goal is to help you
grow as a professional and to maximise
your exposure to new skills and
specialisations.

personal project

Alongside your client work, we will also help
you turn a creative project into a reality,
provided it has a positive impact at its core.
As a studio, we are pushing hard to be more
consciously driven in the work we produce,
and on creating internal projects that focus
on external good. When it comes to your
project, we will help you turn an idea,
half-started concept, or design project into
a reality, regardless of the end goal.

Learning By Doing It - Michelle Kee

The talent program proved to be more
than what I expected going in. I knew how
lucky I was to get to work with a talented
team of designers, managers, and
strategists, but I didn’t know how much
the program would push me to learn to
lead, inspire, pitch, negotiate, ask, and
make important decisions. If you have an
idea that you want to see through, it’s the
best kind of opportunity.

FAQ
ABOUT THE PROJECT
WONDERLAND’S SUPPORT
PROJECT TEAM
DURATION AND TIME
GOING FORWARD
How developed does the project have to be when applying?

Ideally, the project would have passed the
conceptualisation phase and moved on to
design. The design can be in its initial
phases of exploration, as we have a team
who can help push it further and define it
with you. If you already have insights on
which aspects of the project you would like
to improve, that would be a great place to
start.

Can I apply even if my project doesn’t have a do-good initiative at its core?

If you have a project that you feel really
strongly about, but that’s not driven by a
do-good purpose, you can still apply. All we
would ask in this situation is that if we
choose you as a trainee, that you would be
open to us helping you find a positive
impact that could be achieved with your
project.

Does the result of the project always have to be a digital product (i.e., website, application, AR/VR, etc)?

Nope- although we mostly produce digital
products, this does not have to be the case
for the program. The end result can be a
physical product, or anything else for that
matter, but keep in mind that the project’s
process has to be in a medium in which we
can help and have an impact. For example,
a graphic design project that results in a
line of merchandise still falls within our
area of expertise.

We collaborate with
ambitious brands and people.
