As one of the fastest growing companies in the world, Lovable is scaling their design team by tapping into the [Dive Talent Network](https://www.dive.club/talent-network).

So I interviewed their Head of Design, [Nad Chishtie](https://x.com/nadonomy), to learn everything I can about how to get hired as a designer at Lovable.

Some highlights:

- A breakdown of a recent design hire’s portfolio

- How to avoid getting your portfolio screened out

- How to crush the later stages of the hiring process

- How you can win Nad over with side projects alone

- What to do if you’re not confident in your visual skills

- The 2 things Nad cares most about when hiring designers
