Re-entering the field after 4 years – what did I miss

almost 5 years ago from Gabriella C, UX/UI Designer

    What you are going to see most is that people will assume that with "designer", you automatically mean "product designer". What type of design did you do four years ago?

    But it's mostly just definitions that changed.

      The last project I was on was involved leading a small team of designers on a VoD competitor to netflix for South American markets.

      Broadly speaking, I did a lot of high-level flows (working cross-team), wireframes, prototypes and presentation design. In the last year, I didn't do a ton of hands on product design (siphoned off to junior designers). I played a role providing direction and dealing directly with project managers, clients, dev team leads.

      I'm not sure what this kind of experience adds up to in today's design landscape.
