I focus on portfolios that show problem-solving, not just visuals. A good UI/UX designer asks questions, understands user goals, and explains their design decisions clearly. Checking their communication style, research skills, and ability to iterate ensures they’ll fit well with product teams.

I usually look for designers with relevant domain experience and case studies detailing user research, testing, and measurable outcomes. A paid test task can help validate skills. It’s important to assess both creativity and usability knowledge before hiring.
