Get Hired — The Design Interview Preparation Kit

Good designers don't always get hired. Sometimes, they just don't know how to demonstrate what they're capable of.

I've spent years navigating design interviews, solving assignments, and understanding what companies actually look for in product designers.

This kit brings together the resources and frameworks I've developed through those experiences.

This isn't a shortcut to getting hired. It's a collection of practical resources to help you prepare better, think more clearly, and approach interviews with confidence.

One kit. Three resources. A much more structured way to prepare.
