No worries, Remus! Glad I could help a bit. I understand how confusing and frustrating it can get, especially nowadays where a career path in design is not as clear as it used to be just a few years ago (hence why this method I explained before has been working for me). After checking a few job descriptions you'll start finding patterns that appeal to you and also start filtering out details/responsibilities that don't fit into your goals, in the end making this process faster.

Good luck with everything!

Looking back now, every time I had the same doubt about what would be required of me to advance as a digital designer in my career, I would go on job boards or LinkedIn and look at a lot of job descriptions. Basically, I would cross-reference everything listed from responsibilities to skills in all of those postings to build a general picture of what it entails to get to the next level and then work towards those goals.

Hope this helps!

I'm not sure if you're willing to order internationally (seems like you're located in Denmark?) but I can vouch for Noted In Style for the notebooks at least. The company I was previously worked for has used them at least 2 times for different notebook designs and the quality was really good and the finish very sleek. They offer different notebook styles but I definitely recommend the Moleskine Volant or Cahier products for customization.

Note: I'm not affiliated with NotedInStyle, just speaking from experience :)

This looks amazing. Well done! Love the simplicity and ease of it. Wills are usually a touchy subject and some people prefer not to deal with it, but this website's take makes the whole thing much more approachable and less daunting to do.
