Core Skills
Recruiter tips for Product Designer CVs
- Product designer CVs should tie design to product metrics: conversion, retention, trust. 'Made it look better' is not a result.
- Show ownership of flows, not just screens. Owning the transfer flow beats owning the transfer screen.
- Include research contribution. Designers who run their own research are increasingly valued over hand-off-only roles.
- Name your design system work. Component adoption across squads is a strong seniority signal.
Common CV mistakes for Product Designers
- ✗Describing visuals without the user or business outcome
- ✗No mention of research or testing behind decisions
- ✗Omitting collaboration with product and engineering partners
