Does anyone have suggestions for freelance job sites other than Aquent or Creative Circle? I’ve been searching lately but haven't had much luck finding roles that fit. Would love to hear where you're finding the best creative or marketing gigs right now?

If you can connect with motion design groups online and local to you, those tend to be great resources for making direct connections with others in the community. I’ve found that those groups tend to share leads for gigs and roles that are actually relevant to what we do.

Do you have any recommendations or tips on how to find those groups? I could only see for graphic groups so far T_T

Fiverr gets a bad rap, but if you price yourself higher you can filter out the lowball offers. Upwork is the same kind of thing. You have to take on some low paying roles at first to get your profile established, but after you knock out a few contracts, it gets easier to find work that actually pays decent.

Thank you!!

Currently a paralegal at a small start up financial services company been there for just a little over a year. I wear “multiple hats” but more recently I’ve done a lot of PM work and some BA work. My position title is changing soon but I’m wondering how helpful that would be for wanting to go into PM work at a tech company. Anyone have any career pivot advice? (Also I’m only 1.5yrs old in my career so I’m definitely still new, and I have previous experience as a project assistant).

I am in a long distance relationship with someone who is currently in B school. He spends pretty much all his breaks and holidays traveling with his classmates. Most of the time I am fine. But for some important holidays and my birthday, I told him we should spend time together. He just said it’s more important for him to bond with his classmates and ignore my ask. It’s really disappointing and I don’t know what else to tell him. Is that a reasonable ask or am I being dramatic?

I grew up in a nuclear family away from extended relatives who were never really close. Parents were either emotionally unavailable or distant.

Honestly this sucks & it feels like I'll never have a huge supportive family I've wanted & craved for.

Hello friends,
I wanted to share that I am in my first job as ui/ux expert and I am the only ux/ui person in the team. I am expected to take care of entire research and design of the product. It becomes very overwhelming as the product that I am working on is in a early phase and I am expected to think about ui as well as ux and also design entire app on my own.There is no user interview or user testing happening as my project manager thinks it can be done after product is launched. Please help!

Hi all
I started out as a graphic designer. Worked for about 4yrs in different roles. Then i started a digital design role for 2 yrs and then made my transition into ux. i have been in a ux role for 5 years. But i want to steer my career towards something more creative. Like in 5-10 years I wouldn’t want to be a specialist or a ux director. I d like to be an art director or creative director. I love branding & marketing but also product. Would love something that allows me to do both?
