Job titles is a regular topic around here. Occasionally heated, as job titles play a role in the hiring process (why are you asking me React questions for this UX design position role?). And complicated by the fact that there is no agreed-upon standards and the loads of people and companies who don’t take them seriously (we just want people who do a good job, make your title whatever you want it to be). Complicated again when someone from the outside needs to look in.

Jasper Stephenson:

Recently, a colleague of mine named Mariko Sugita needed to hire a designer for a website she was creating. She’s an urbanist, and not particularly involved in the digital design field, so she asked the closest designer who happened to be on hand (me), “what kind of designers should I be looking for?”

Jasper takes a crack at it in this post.

Here’s a roundup of other cracks at how to answer the same sort of question.
