Interviewing: Confidence and Strategy
Welcome to the Service Design Careers’ 2026 series.
This is a 5-part webinar series designed to help service designers (and designers from tangential fields like product design, UI/UX design, and design research) build their career narrative and land their dream role.
This specific ticket is for the second session of the series: ‘Interviewing: Confidence and Strategy’.(Note: If you’d like to book a bundled ticket and receive a 20% discount, you can find the link here: https://luma.com/il4u6uys)
Getting the interview is the hard part. Now you need to show up as your best self, through competency questions, portfolio walkthroughs and design tasks.
This session prepares you for the full service design interview process so you go in knowing what to expect and how to approach it.
What we’ll cover
Interview strategy and tips: preparing mentally and practically
Types of questions: common behavioural, technical and case-study questions in service design interviews
Interview tasks: how to approach design challenges, presentations and problem-solving exercises
Who it’s for
Designers with interviews coming up, and anyone who wants to feel more confident when the call comes.

About your host
I’m Disha, a senior service designer at the Cabinet Office (UK Civil Service) and founder of Service Design Careers. I’ve worked across the public and private sectors, including sustainability, pharma, mobility and luxury, with organisations like Google, Spotify, Sanofi and Camden Council. I lecture at the Royal College of Art, UAL, Glasgow School of Art, Politecnico di Milano and KISD, and have spoken at TEDx, Service Design Network and SDinGov.
I started Service Design Careers because I kept meeting talented designers who struggled to turn their skills into the right role. These sessions distil what I’ve learned from mentoring them.
