How I Landed My First Product Design Role
A candid, first-person story of breaking into product design — the portfolio that got noticed, the interviews that converted, and the mindset shifts that made it all possible.
About the Webinar
Breaking into product design can feel impossible — especially when everyone seems to ask for experience you don't yet have. Join us for an honest, practical webinar where we share the exact journey of landing a first product design role: the tools learned, the portfolio built, and the conversations that closed the offer. Whether you're switching careers, a fresh graduate, or a self-taught designer looking for your first full-time role, this session will give you a clear, repeatable roadmap.
