What recruiters actually look for

Furniture design screens want buildable details. Show drawings + prototype. Wasted effort: unbuildable cantilever flexes. Studio and campus screens still reward ownership stories over tool-logo lists. Bring one artifact — case study, prototype, lookbook page, or critique notes — you can defend in depth.
