In doesn't hurt that York has the Art Institute - Bradley Academy for the Visual Arts within its borders. The interior design program there is geared specifically to getting its students ready for their first job, whether that be in freelance work, kitchen and bath design, or working for a interior design or architectural firm.
You're sure to find yourself a starting position at a design firm or a freelance work assignment in York if you try your best. There are, after all, 1,350 positions in the city in the arts, design, entertainment, sports, and media occupations.
