Are generalist design portfolios hurting more than helping right now? I’ve been noticing a pattern lately where a lot of portfolios (especially from newer designers) try to showcase everything at once illustration, motion, branding, UI, even some 3D. On one hand, it shows range and curiosity. On the other, it can make it hard to understand what the person actually wants to be hired for With how competitive things are getting, especially in digital roles, I’m starting to wonder if being a generalist is becoming more of a disadvantage than it used to be. It feels like hiring managers are scanning quickly and want a clear signal rather than a broad mix At the same time, design careers aren’t always linear. Many people explore different mediums before settling into something more focused, and that exploration can be valuable. Curious how people here are approaching this. If you’re hiring, do you prefer tightly focused portfolios or ones that show range?…
