Product Designer at TikTok and Bytedance
“It’s been great having Zijie as my intern buddy — he’s been incredibly helpful and really held his own for the insurance project in the SEA and US markets. Coming from a design system background, Zijie picked things up fast… adapted to that process quickly and handled it with maturity. When I told him to “trust the process”… the patterns and themes became clear, and he was able to use them as solid insights… identifying the insights that could actually move the needle for business metrics. We ended up focusing on 3–4 key insights, which he presented really well to stakeholders… He even managed to spark further interest, leading to extra requests to explore pricing strategies and also do competitor analysis in the US market. He’s also incredibly proactive — reaching out to BPOs across markets… keeping momentum without being prompted… His meeting minutes were spot-on… Overall, Zijie showed strong adaptability, initiative, and attention to detail… delivered meaningful outputs that got stakeholder buy-in… I have no doubts with more experience in the field Zijie will grow into an established and remarkable product designer.”
