answer:Interior design would lag architectural development, so things are beginning to pick up. Did your program require co-op experience? Can you apply back with those firms? If not, be aware undergrad design programs that are affilliated with architectural schools, such as the University of Cincinnati, have co-op programs for their students, placing them with Disney and the major hotel chains, both in the US and internationally, as undergrads. If it appears that you’re not getting any feedback on applications, it could be because, in this tight job market, you’re competing against recent grads with significant work experience. You may not have the luxury of being selective for a first position. You may want to broaden your search to manufacturers of design components, such as carpeting, wallcoverings, furniture, etc.
