I don’t know much about product design but most portfolios I’ve seen start with the work first on the home page. It might just be that I’m viewing it in mobile but the first thing I see is a picture of you. The about page should be on its own or if you’re doing a single scroll move it down to the bottom

Thanks for the feedback. This is something I was contemplating. My old portfolio didn’t have a photo or description of what I do up front and I got feedback that it should but now that I do it feels like it may be too much of my face lol. There is a separate about page so maybe I’ll remove my photo but leave the info about what I do.

I received an email today from recruiter asking for a phone interview which I’m so happy to hear from but I applied about a month ago. I moved on and applied internally for a different role as a transfer. This new role is a promotion and my start date is next week. I immediately responded back to the recruiter and agreed to the phone interview for tomorrow 5/4…. Do I mention any of the above to them? Do I tell them I just accepted a new role and different position? Please advise

Hi ladies! I feel I am ready to find a more managerial role: manager, supervisor, director, etc. I usually take positions I am over qualified for, which leaves me underpaid and not very challenged. However, I think not having previous manager experience holds me back as well. How does someone get manager roles without having manager experience? Someone has to yes in order to gain it, right?! Is there a way to phrase answers in an interview to get the positions?

Riffing off a part in another bowl - if you could design a new economic system to replace capitalism, what would you change.

There has to be a better way to incentivize individual excellence while harnessing it towards more socially beneficial goals.
