Skills Assessment: Planning for a Successful Career in Design and the Arts

In the design world, beginners often overestimate their skills and importance, which can negatively impact their development. Experienced designers, on the other hand, sometimes miss out on growth potential by remaining in a blind spot—an area they don't know about. However, there is a tool that helps designers plan their careers and manage the value of their services.

This tool is the 360° Skills Assessment. It includes both hard and soft skills such as leadership, professionalism, personal effectiveness and entrepreneurship. This framework is based on bew practices such as McKinsey and adapted for design and art.

How does this help? First of all, you get an objective view of your career. You see gaps in knowledge and practical skills that are in demand in the market. This is useful for both freelancers and full-time employees.

On the Skills Scorecard, you'll find specific skills that can be rated on a scale of 0 to 5. For example, Level 1 is understanding the basics, and Level 5 is being recognized as an expert in the field.

What did my assessment show? I achieved level 3 in almost all areas, but avoided reaching level 4 - being recognized as an expert. This explains my active step into social networks and SMM.

Want to do the assessment yourself? Just write “Assessment” or “Skill Assessment” in a private message and I will provide access to the Google spreadsheet. Having a vision for your professional growth is easy!

Let's talk about my approach to self-learning.

I think that this is my strength, but at the same time it is my weakness. I am passionate about studying down to the smallest details. If we draw an analogy with the game world, let’s take the RPG genre (where the key aspect is leveling up a character from level 0 to 80), then I’m the one who explores every corner, opens all the chests, finds absolutely all the artifacts and goes through every side quest. As a rule, by the middle of the game my character has maximum skills, and the game is filled with new colors and becomes full of action and various events.

Today, I feel like I have also achieved about 50% of my personal development. And just like in a game, from this moment on the superhero mode begins, when the gap between what you can and know and what is required in a particular situation increases significantly. It's the same as playing with cheats. The next stage ahead is the development of my personal brand. It's time to.
