Skill checks for Product Designers

JobFutures skill checks are designed as an opportunity, not a public exam. Candidates can use them to understand their level, prepare for technical conversations and make their profile more visible to verified companies.

For practical roles, a skill check may include a real task, a GitHub-based submission or a technical discussion about the candidate’s decisions. The important part is the reasoning: why a solution was chosen, how it could be improved and how the candidate explains trade-offs.

Product Designer Skill Check is part of this role cluster. It helps candidates understand readiness and gives employers better context when the candidate chooses to share completion details.
