AnonymousI'm a Senior Product Designer with 10 years of experience, and I've grown my entire career at one company — a well-known outsourcing firm. It's been a solid path, going from early-career to senior there, but it meant my frame of reference for how to present my experience outside that context was narrower than I realized. When I started job hunting, I knew my resume wasn't doing me justice, but I couldn't pinpoint why. We had one live session that covered both the resume and the portfolio. The resume needed a full rebuild — what I had wasn't working. The portfolio was trickier: most of my strongest work was under NDA, and I genuinely didn't know how to represent it without breaking confidentiality. Igor worked through that constraint with me — what could be shown, how to frame the rest, and how to expand the portfolio so it actually reflected ten years of experience instead of looking thin. After the session, we did a couple of async rounds reviewing the updated versions. Igor was working from what I had going in and what I produced after — he couldn't verify the NDA-protected work directly, but the recommendations on structure and framing were spot on regardless. We did this in October 2025. I started getting actual responses to applications instead of silence — and by February, I had accepted an offer. I won't credit one resume rebuild for the whole outcome, but the shift from no replies to real conversations happened right after we made these changes.
