A conversation with my intern on their first week.
Intern: I’m not sure this particular assignment has any value to the work I want to do.
Me: Really? How many UX jobs have you had before this one?
Intern: None.
Me: So how do you know it’s not important?
Intern: (stares blankly for a second) I guess you’re right.

I’m hoping to make this person my biggest achievement this year 😏

Parking at Gurugram office has become a problem big enough to start thinking of another job. It’s so inconvenient to imagine taking public transport in 48 degrees. How can you expect employee to come office and not offer parking or cabs? It’s like employer asking you to work without a laptop.

Family luddites ask about my work and immediately behave annoyed when I start to answer.

Ask yourself: am I for capitol rioters but against Colin Kaepernick and against BLM?

Am I for a Christian bakery’s right to refuse to serve gays, but against twitter’s right to refuse to serve the president?

Am I for a person’s right to have a gun wherever they want, but against a business’s right to enforce mask policy?

If yes to all of the above, you don’t have beliefs. You just have prejudices.

Few tips to improve your visual design skills

- Learn Typography: Typography is essential because 60-70% of user interfaces are about written content displayed in a meaningful way.

- Learn Layout and Composition: You don’t need to be pixel perfect, but if you place labels 10px above inputs, you must do that consistently across your whole design.

- Learn Color: Color doesn't need to be complex. Understand how colors interact with each other and learn how color can set moods.

Welcome everyone.
Will be posting some great resources soon.

How to make a leap from UI/UX into product design? What skills should a PD have? With 5 YOE and I still feel like a junior. I have a good eye for visual design, but I'm a bit scared of the business strategy, analytics and testing part. Where do I start to learn those skills? I know the basics of testing and conducting workshops, but I don't know how to develop those skills further. My company focuses on UI and I haven't been lucky to land a PD job. Do companies really look for all those skills?

For those that work at an agency: what does your team structure look like? As UX or UI contributors are you on a creative team, product, something else? And I'm curious about reporting and management structure as well.

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately, the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.

I am also in the advanced stages of some lead designer positions in other companies.

However, I am really interested in joining the team at Booking, especially because of the design culture.

What should be my reasons to accept or not accept the offer from booking?

I come from a design-heavy background and have been guilty in the past of over-emphasizing aesthetics. What do you think is the proper balance with functionality? How do you think through this?

I’m transitioning from Art Director to UX/UI Designer. As an AD, I’ve worked on UX/UI but it wasn’t the only thing I did. I don’t know how to title myself on my resume with all my experience being an AD and/or Designer though.

Does anyone have some advice on how to approach applying to jobs during this transition?
