I got my first design job without a portfolio.
A few months ago, I applied to a web design role at an agency in SF.
They asked for my portfolio and a 24-hour design challenge.
I didn't have any work to show, so the challenge had to do the talking.
The task: turn a brand brief and PRD into a landing page.
I only finished the hero section and dashboard preview, but they liked it enough to call me the next day.
This is the design that got me in the door.
