Back in 2018, I was seriously thinking about leaving design and moving into design recruitment. Excited? Yes. Confused? Also yes. Like most career transitions, there were far more questions than answers. So one Friday afternoon, I messaged @surdattack . "Sunit, I'm thinking of moving into design recruitment. Wanted to discuss a few things." A few minutes later came a reply in his typical Delhi style. "Abhi tu kahan hai?" I said, "Office mein hoon." "5 baje Koramangala Starbucks aa sakta hai?" "Haan, aa jata hoon." That evening, we met for the first time in person. I shared my thoughts, doubts, fears and why recruitment was starting to interest me. Sunit patiently listened. No judgement. No lectures. Just listening. Then he said something I wasn't expecting. "Main Embibe ke liye kuch design roles hire kar raha hoon. Let me know if you're interested." I still remember my reaction. I had never worked as a recruiter. No experience. No track record. No proof that I could do it. Yet here was one of the most respected design leaders in the industry trusting me with a real hiring assignment. That project became my first design hiring project. Over the next couple of months, while still working full-time as a designer, I ended up hiring around 5 designers for Embibe. Looking back, that Starbucks meeting changed the direction of my career. Sometimes all it takes is one person who trusts you before you have proof. Thank you, Sunit, for taking a chance on me when I had no experience. I'll always be grateful for that. 🙏 #DesignCommunity #DesignLeadership #Mentorship #DesignHiring #BeingUser

🚨Launching Depth (building in public) I've been tracking my body obsessively for 18 months. Wearables. CGM. Blood-work. Lost 25kgs. 3x Hyrox. Multiple marathons. I still couldn't answer one basic question: what's actually working? So I built something. 🧵

Attended a wonderful design event hosted by @noondesign and @ElevCap Really enjoyed listening to @surdattack, @harish_io, and @belindahuang A few thoughts that stayed with me: → It’s still a great time to be a designer. → AI can generate outputs, but taste, judgment, intuition, and conviction are becoming even more valuable. → Good design taste doesn’t come only from Figma or Pinterest. It comes from observing people, culture, architecture, art, music, fashion, and the world around us. → Design is probably much closer to an artistic pursuit than we often admit. Left feeling optimistic about the future of design. Curious what others think designers should focus on most in the age of AI. #ProductDesign #DesignCommunity #DesignIndia #uxdesign

1/4 95% of Indian enterprises (in our survey) are using AI. 1 in 5 can't quantify a single rupee of ROI. Over the last three months, we partnered with OpenAI and Zinnov to study how 100+ Indian enterprises are actually adopting AI and whether they're becoming "AI native"

With the advent of LLMs, English and other languages have suddenly become far more powerful. For me, as a designer, all I need to do is clearly describe an interaction. One line of description decompresses into 50 lines of code. Written language is suddenly 50x more effective. A compressed package of intent, logic and execution. Which also means technologists may need fewer and fewer words going forward.

The world is reaching a point where the most essential skill is the ability to write science fiction. If you can imagine, it can happen. So, let the contest begin.

I seriously judge people who overuse exclamation marks!!!!!!! Especially grown men. And if there’s a space before the exclamation mark, even more so !

Social media algorithms rewards posts that trigger strong emotions and arguments. And the hustlers on these platforms know this. And they deliberately put stuff out to trigger you. Especially the stuff about religion, moral values, s*x, money, relationships, hot takes. If you
