Good advice from Ben Blumenrose and the folks at DesignerFund 👀
HOW TO HIRE A TOP DESIGNER AUGUST 28, @ DESIGNERFUND.COM Screenshot from 45:15 / 49:16. Transcript below. Advice for designers It's an amazing time for designers if you can sharpen in-demand skills and present yourself in the right way. Prove you can thrive in 0-1. Show both range and one deen Blumerose strength. Be comfortable moving from a blank whiteboard to a shipped product. Sharpen your toolkit. Prototyping is now table stakes. Fluency with Al tools and workflows is expected. Adjacent skills like motion, 3D, code, and data will set you apart. Make your portfolio work harder. Include real, messy work and explain your decisions. Show how projects tie to measurable results. Put yourself in the market. Share work publicly and tap into PM or engineering-heavy networks, since they're often searching for 0→1 designers. Direct outreach › waiting for postings. Negotiate with clarity. Choose the one thing that matters most (salary, equity, or bonus) and say, "If you can get me X, l'm ready to sign today." Committing if they meet it signals seriousness and makes advocacy more likely.

fantastic post ‼️ thanks for sharing!

from the designerfund post linked at the bottom there's this:

> Keep in mind... Generalists’ work may need to be redone down the road.

i take issue with this and am not 100% sure how to say why.

Crushed to learn of Enrique’s passing. Enrique, Ben, and DesignerFund have done so much for mine and so many other designer’s careers and lives. He was one of the most positive and kind people I’ve ever met.
Remembering Enrique Allen | Designer Fund
It is with a heavy heart that I share that Enrique Allen passed away this week after a crushing battle with cancer.
