​Hey there UX people! 👋

​What really matters when hiring a designer for a product team? What common mistakes stop candidates from getting the offer? And why strong UI skills alone aren’t enough?

​Andrei Sitih, Lead Product Designer at T-Bank (Tinkoff), has conducted over 100 design interviews — from juniors to mid-levels. In this session, he’ll share how product teams evaluate designers, what the interview process looks like from the inside, and what it takes to stand out.

​We’ll cover:

​– How to structure your portfolio and case studies

​– What interview questions actually assess

​– What to expect from a whiteboard challenge

​– How to approach the team fit interview

​Perfect for everyone from junior to lead designers and those transitioning into product roles. Expect honest insights, practical advice, and real examples.
