👉 Limited opportunities for Junior Designers hurt the industry. It's time to challenge the outdated notion that experience is solely measured in years. Entry-level design is about more: ✅ Willingness to learn ✅ A positive attitude ✅ Visible technical skills ✅ Developed human skills ✅ Constraint handling ✅ Understanding problems We need to come together to promote an inclusive design culture that welcomes juniors! Agree? 🚀 #DesignJobs #InclusiveDesign #JuniorDesigners

Hiring a designer is not just a transaction; it's an investment in expertise. Every design choice embodies years of experience—something easily spotted by those in the know. Taking credit for a designer's work? Think again; the skilled eye will always detect the origin of true craftsmanship. Feedback is invaluable, but there's a line between it and claiming another's creative labor. Interested in seeing authentic design work? Visit https://ifwat.design/. Let's spark a conversation.

Design Job Search: Basics #1 Hey Designers! If you want to be taken seriously, add your portfolio link to your Linkedin profile (see bottom left on the image) You gotta think about the experience the recruiter or hiring manager is having. If they can't find your design folio link on your Li profile..... WTF???

Absolutely, agree with this post from Florian Boelter! Self-awareness in career development is crucial, especially for junior designers or those considering a switch to design. It's not just about being proficient in tools like Figma; it's about identifying and embracing your unique skillset. These distinct skills are what set you apart in today's competitive job market. I often get asked by people trying to transition to design, that they have learned Figma and what to do next to get into a fulltime design role. Well, I tell them to self-evaluate and find your passion. I've experienced this transition firsthand. Initially, I was a design generalist, but I found my niche in strategic roles, driven by my passion for problem-solving rather than just 'pushing pixels.' This shift has not only defined my career path but also highlighted the importance of aligning one's strengths and passions with their professional role. For anyone in design, I'd recommend a deep self-evaluation to understand what truly motivates and excites you. This clarity can be your biggest asset in carving a successful and fulfilling career.
Most designers don’t know what they’re really good at. But it matters – especially for juniors. Your unique skillset and your strengths are likely going to be your ticket in. Why? No role is looking for another designer “passionate about creating meaningful experiences”. Even in todays market where generalists have become the standard, job descriptions are always written for certain “types” of designers. If you can showcase that you fit the type the job is requiring you will be a relevant candidate. Do a SWOT analysis, find out what you do well both based on your (limited) design experience and previous experience outside of design. Find the common patterns and craft your profile around it. What type of designer are you?

Great advice! Florian Boelter Understanding your strengths not only helps you shine but also ensures you stand out in the crowd. It's a great idea to analyze and find common patterns in your work. I hope this will help me determine what type of designer I am. 💡 💹

Insecurities of a junior designer #1: Everyone is better than me I have a fear that everyone is better than me, and I don’t need to be doing this. That there is probably many guys out there who need to be doing this but me. Are there better designers than me? Absolutely. There are many other designers who have been doing it for many years. One fact that remains is that we are all winging it; no one has it all figured out. Why give myself such pressure to compare myself to them? I am daily accepting the fact that I am unique; I have a different way of looking at things. I am practicing daily to improve my craft and am open to receiving feedback from designers who have done this for a longer time than me.

I've said in the past that the difference between a junior designer and a mid-level one is that the mid-level one knows how to say "no" and the junior doesn't. And the difference between a mid-level designer and a senior one is that the senior one doesn't have to say "no". Some people believe what I meant is that it's because a senior designer does such good work, that stakeholders simply buy it wholesale, but that's not it. What I mean is that a good senior designer can steer the process and conversations in such ways, that saying "no" isn't required. Of course, this is just a hyperbole. I don't mean that in a literal sense. We still say no, but it's never the default position. What changes with increased seniority as a designer is that one can anticipate a lot more thanks to prior experience, which enables senior designers to direct the process and not only react to it.

Years hiring designers: 13 # portfolios reviewed: 🤯 (IDK it’s in the thousands) Case studies read in their entirety: Gonna go with 0 here... It’s not that I don’t care about your work. I definitely do! It’s that hiring managers are crunched for time and have a lot of portfolios to look at. There simply isn’t time to read every word of your case study. Good portfolios: 1. Cut to the chase 2. Optimize for scannability 3. Communicate a lot of info w/ visuals A few ways to do that: 1. Show a big, hi fi visual of the final product right at the top so I know what the product is and have context. 2. Optimize your headers, images, and image captions. The reader should be able to understand the project by quickly scanning. And they’re more likely to pause and look at those three design elements. Remember your typography, white space, and hierarchy fundamentals—this aids scannability. 3. Avoid giant walls of text. I see a lot of case studies that start with paragraphs upon paragraphs of text. As designers, we know it’s common for users to skip over long passages of text and miss important information. Your case study is no different. Portfolios are hard and there’s no shortage of opinions on them. I’m sharing my own perspective as a hiring manager in hopes that it helps someone.
