About this session
As someone who has aced whiteboard interviews at top tech companies (Google, Meta etc), I can help guide you through this process and make sure you feel confident going into your whiteboard session.
In this session, we can go over your whiteboarding skills and go over proper frameworks to help you feel confident in your next whiteboard session. We can go over practice prompts as well.
Your mentor
👋 Hi there, I’m Rina, a Product Designer with 7+ years of experience at companies like Snap, Meta, and Amazon working at the intersection of digital design and consumer hardware. Before transitioning to a career in tech, I studied and practiced Architecture.
For the past few years, I've mentored 60+ people through career transitions, interviewing skills, and helped mentees receive offers at Google, Meta, Wealthsimple, and more.
Whether you are a student, career switcher, or have a few years under your built, we can work together to come up with a plan specific to your goals. My mentorship style involves active listening, encouragement, and pragmatic, tactical feedback rooted in the current state of the ever-changing tech industry.
As a career switcher, I know how stressful it feels to "start over". While it feels like you're starting over from scratch, together we'll figure out the ways you can leverage and market your unique skillset and apply it to product design.
As someone who has received offers at top tech companies (Google, Meta, Amazon, Uber, Pinterest, Cashapp, Square, Snap and more), I can help you break into the tech industry and teach you frameworks that work. I have experience as a screener and design interviewer and can give you tips on how to best represent yourself to the hiring team.
As your mentor, I can help you with the following:
→ Transition your career to Product Design
→ Review your Portfolio & CV
→ Guide you through the Product Design Interview process
→ Prepare you for whiteboards/app critiques with practical, non fluffy frameworks
→ Understand salary & market expectations
→ Mock UX Interviews
→ Break into a great tech company
→ Strategize your job search
→ Discuss on-the-job strategies working as a sole designer in a startup or a designer within a larger design org
Ultimately, the time we set aside is for you, we can tailor our meetings to what is helpful for you at any given time. Can’t wait to meet!
