• Some experience creating user flows, wireframes, prototypes or interface designs through professional work, internships, apprenticeships or relevant projects.

• Familiarity with design and prototyping tools such as Figma.

• Able to explain your design thinking and the reasoning behind your work.

• Curious about users and willing to learn how their needs, behaviours and context should influence design decisions.

• Open to feedback and able to apply it constructively to improve your work.
