Design is a practice — learn from the best practitioners
Design mentorship closes the gap between what bootcamps teach and what the industry demands. Our design mentors lead teams at companies like Canva, Atlassian, REA Group, Culture Amp, and top agencies. They can help with: portfolio reviews that actually get interviews, UX research and testing methods, design system architecture, Figma workflow and component libraries, design leadership and stakeholder management, and transitioning from visual design to product design. Share your Figma file or portfolio link and get specific, honest feedback.
Design feedback is worthless when it's vague. MentorMate sessions are live video — your mentor can screenshare, annotate, and show you exactly what to change and why.

- How should I prepare for a design portfolio review session?
- Send 2–3 case studies ahead of time. The mentor will review them before the session. Be ready to talk about your design process, the constraints you worked under, and what you'd do differently. The feedback will be specific to each case study.
- Can a mentor help me transition from graphic design to product design?
- Yes — several of our mentors made this exact transition. They'll help you identify transferable skills, build product-focused case studies, learn UX research fundamentals, and position your portfolio for product design roles.
