Portfolio is your most valuable 💎 asset

1on1 sessions with Alicja that will help you experience the recruitment process in safe environment and get feedback about your answers.

🔑 Key component

A portfolio is a key component during the Product Design recruitment process. It is usually a must-have for individual contributors.

😻 First impression

Your portfolio is often the first thing that recruiters and hiring managers see. It’s your introduction, and an opportunity to give a good first impression

😵 A make or break

No matter how good your CV and experience are, if your portfolio does not meet the bar, there is no possibility of moving forward in the recruitment process.

🧪 Optimised

In addition, your portfolio needs to be optimised since you don’t have a lot of time to grab their attention. It takes a couple of minutes for the recruiter to do the initial scan of your portfolio

🏃 Separate skillset

The art of building a portfolio is separate from the Product Designer skillset. Building case studies is about storytelling, synthesis, distilling information, and providing context.

🌟 Standing out

There is a big pool of Designers with low-quality portfolios, and there is a small group with high-quality portfolios. If you’re competing for the same jobs, being in the high-quality group puts you at a significant advantage.

We’ll guide you through the whole process

Hi, I’m Alicja!

I’m a Product Designer with over 8 years of experience supporting multimillion-dollar SaaS companies in delivering top industry products to their customers. I’ve mentored 100s of students of design bootcamps like DesignLab, CareerFoundry and CodersLab. I’m a founder of Outdraw Design, Outdraw Academy, and Design Debt 101.

Over my career, I had a chance to get to know the design recruitment process as a candidate, as a mentor and as a hiring team member. I’m proud to say that I’ve prepared 100s of design students for their job search, reviewed over 1000 portfolios and interviewed 100s of candidates from different disciplines.

As a result from working with design candidates from all levels, I’ve discovered what holds them back and what are the typical mistakes they make.

I’ve created a guide I wish I had when starting my design career. It prepares you for the interview process, answers the most common questions, and prevents you from making typical mistakes. This program synthesises the best strategies I learned from coaching design students, interviewing designers, and my experiences as a candidate.

When you enroll, you’ll get...
