Hello everyone,

I'm 14 and absolutely enthusiastic about Apple — not only the products themselves, but the design nuance, the sense that everything has been well thought-out, and even stuff like Fitness+ and the Tips app. I love how much attention Apple pays to making every aspect of the experience feel deliberate and cohesive.

My dream is to eventually become an Apple employee, specifically in design (maybe even retail for the beginnin). I know that I am young right now, but I would like to start learning as soon as possible. To you all who have experience with design or anything else, what are a few things or habits one my age should focus on learning to strengthen in the right direction? to maybe reach this dream

Any assistance or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hard to answer your question.

But this speech by Steve Jobs can be very inspiring: https://news.stanford.edu/stories/2005/06/youve-got-find-love-jobs-says

Work with passion and go in depth on what you do. Find what you love and love what you do.

I would also advise to have interest in arts (Music, painting, sculpture, calligraphy… or maths that I consider as an art) and develop your skills there: arts are a school for learning perfection, especially for design.

But don't drop from college.

Wish you the best.

Hi Chase,

I am delighted to hear that you are interested in joining us in the future. I had a similar dream at your age, and it appears that if you continue to pursue your goals, success will eventually come your way.

To get started, I recommend learning about coding and installing Xcode on your computer. Additionally, there are numerous videos from WWDC that provide up-to-date information on the subject.

I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors.
