I'd recommend that any company looking to create design challenges for potential candidates use this generator. Even after all this time, most companies I've run into with design challenges want you to solve an actual business problem of theirs. Bad... bad... practice. You shouldn't be asking for free work, and candidates feel strong-armed into doing it because they need/want a new job.

Hello everybody! We’re really excited to launch on PH today! 🚀 So, flashing colors aside - what is this thing? 🤔 Sharpen.design is a practice tool for designers of any career stage. It’ll challenge you to solve unexpected problems, similar to those you’ll find when going through a rigorous Google-style interview. Let’s be honest - do you want to design *another* weather app? 🌨 With a little randomness as a creative guide, you can really push your ability to think (and design) on your toes. Sharpen.design offers designers of any career stage a challenging, original design prompt with every click of that button. You can read more about Sharpen.design here: https://medium.com/@realheritage... We’re looking forward to your thoughts and feedback on the project! Happy to answer any questions! 🙌🏽 Arman & Anthony

This is awesome! It's something I totally would have loved when I was trying to think of things to make as a designer with an empty portfolio. I made a similar thing a couple months ago, but you guys blew it out of the park: http://briefz.biz/

Love the concept! Great grab on the domain by the way.

Use it to work on something fresh, or use one of these ideas as a means to flesh out a cool new layout or animation concept you have.

Pros:

So many great options and fun ideas for improving your skills.

Cons:

None

Damn cool concept, Arman.

Super cool project. Looking forward to start with my first assignment...

Really, really ♥️ this! Great idea and execution!
