Anyone else having trouble landing a new role after being laid off? It’s been 3 months sent out over 100 applications and I’ve had 10 interviews.

Got another rejection today for a job I was definitely qualified and fit for. I’m starting to lose steam and thinking about taking a week off of applying to rework my portfolio (I’m a UX Designer).

Need some feedback! So I was forced to move jobs about 6 months ago due to reorg and the new leader opting to bring their existing EA with them, without even meeting me. If stayed at the company but accepted an offer for a job outside of the department I was in. I’ve now been asked by a manager from my old department to apply for a job they’re opening that would be a 2 step promotion. She thought she got my managers permission to approach me (see comments)

Many companies have these strict policies about what you can and cannot post on social media, which is fine and all, but the second you try to address a concern or highlight something in your workplace that could be improved, they will come down on you like the hammer of Thor.

How’d you rate your company’s UX?

Is it normal for a Product Owner to lay out specs for how a feature should work?

I thought that was my job as the ux designer to figure out the best way to solve a need. But I’m getting handed projects where the PO, and sometimes the senior designer has laid out exactly what should happen (components used, flow, etc) to design a feature. It’s really frustrating because I don’t know if I’m supposed to be speaking up on what I think or just do the UI work I’m asked to.

Recently got hired for my first contract position. What are the things I should know about being a contractor?

Hi everyone! I'm new here and looking to change from my current role to become a UX Designer or Researcher. I have a background in content marketing, SEO, and applied behavioural psychology. I'm wondering what kind of skill sets are required, and how people started off in the field. I'd also like to know if anyone can recommend online courses that would help me land a job in the future. Thanks!

I am switching careers and trying to get into the field of UX design. I made it to round two of the interview process for a UX Designer position, an interview with the hiring manager for this role. I have not made it this far before, are there any standard questions that get asked in UX interviews I should be aware of? Thanks I’m advance! I want to be as prepared as possible.

Hii! Looking for compensation range for a mid level researcher in San Diego, California!
Do all companies provide a sign in bonus? What’s that like?

How do you approach usability testing for new onboarding sequences? I work with a variety of SaaS businesses and recently requests have come in to test onboarding prototypes.

New users are the first to touch onboarding so how do I recruit the appropriate participants to test? Recruiting new users doesn’t seem feasible, I would think we should run A/B tests and cross-check analytics to measure success? Any insight is appreciated!

I am considering switching careers from architecture to UX design or Product Management, and am unsure about which route I want to take. Is it common for someone to switch between UX and PMing within the same company? If so is it common in both directions? Wondering if I can have a second chance at adjusting my job again later if I change my mind down the road

I think I may have finally had it.

A couple of decades in this field and now I want to just walk away. The grind in tech is soul-destroying, and the vast majority of the time, coworkers outside of UX have no idea what it is, what it’s for, and how it’s applied. I’m at my wits end and the constant problem is a kind of “willful misunderstanding” of our process and value.

After wasting too many years on design immature companies, It’s senselessly depressing. I’ve given away too much of myself.

UX Designers - how long did it take for you to find a junior role when starting out in UX?

I’m doing some research on error and empathy. Has anyone come across any research on customer behavior, such as helping them cope with difficulties online and correcting errors. I’m reading and hearing no one likes “We sorry” interactions.

For other Senior Managers, Directors and above, how do you stay on top managing your team, and also your understanding of your users? I rely on my team through the projects they work on, and the insights they arrive at through the research/design process. I rely on listening to sales calls now and then. I'm curious what other tactics you have to stay informed?

What does a Technical UXR interview look like? I have my first one tomorrow! I am mostly preparing by practicing research planning and reviewing different methods, but if anyone has recommendations on how to better prepare, I would appreciate it!

Open to any UXR roles. Preferably remote/hybrid . Recently laid off due to corporate restructure. 3-4 YOE.

Has anyone done a UX bootcamp? I am still in the beginning stages of mine and NYC summer has been crazy distracting. Has anyone gone through the same? If so, how did you overcome this?

How important was your portfolio to land your first UXR job? There are mixed messages out there...

I joined a project that had already started and the team already settled on creating a user journey map, even though none of them are designers or in ux. I also have no experience in this field as I'm a data engineer. The user journey map was for mapping out the process for tenants finding housing assistance, so not a technical product. Given this new field and type of work, I've been having a really tough time. Anyone mind sharing what helped get you through your first ux project?

Looking for some advice on a career change. I work in a technical role and have well-developed soft skills. I want to transition to UX (w/ focus on accessibility). There are a lot of UX educational programs out there, some very new, e.g. Dribbble, and costs are all over the place - General Assembly is $15k (and full-time), CareerFoundry almost $8k, and then many others at a fraction of the price. Reviews also vary wildly. Are these more expensive programs worth the huge increase in cost?

I have an EdTech client looking to hire a lead designer. They're looking for someone with 5+ years experience and background in either early education or consumer mobile apps. Fully remote (US company). Great team. DM for details.
