There's a lot of great service designers, I started by searching there. It would be great to have a starter pack.

It's challenging at the moment in every industry vertical. There's clearly a re-alignment underway but toughing it out means you'll be in a great position when things settle down. I'm seeing high demand for senior positions, low for junior and low for director and above levels. Stay positive.

I have to give this a go, heavily using Claude but hadn't considered prototyping.

Nice, the perfect time for snow and a hot toddy.
