I applied for a job within my unit that I do not qualify for. Now, I have an interview for this job.

Hello there!
I’m looking for any good recommendations around problem framing (books, resources, frameworks, etc.) What are you people doing to nail identifying product problems, before moving into shaping? Cheers!

I have a $1200 stipend for learning at my work - Any suggestions from fellow Product Designers for recommendations?

I’m thinking so far about a UX writing course since we don’t have writers and I dictate the copy for elements as the designer.

Looking to start a new bowl/community to connect with other Design Leaders/Managers. Can be new design managers like me, or even those with years of experience.

Reply below and let me know ✌🏼🥰

What’s the company that pays the most to UX Designers?

We’re an AI/ML startup going through a Series A funding round and looking for a product designer. DM if you’re looking for a new gig, or just ask any questions here.

Hey! I'm just about to start doing some freelance work for a NYC based boutique design studio, and I need to give a hiring manager my hourly rate to give his customers. I am new to UI/UX design. I have experience in graphic design, but I just completed a certificate in UI/UX design so other than school projects I don't have an extensive amount of experience. What would you suggest I should charge? I am more interested in gaining experience than needing the money, but want to be payed reasonably.

I work at an agency and I'm about to be promoted from senior to lead designer. What do you think would be a fair % of salary raise?

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.

Bridge between Customer Support and Product Design?

Hiya! I am in the final round of interviews at an EdTech platform for a role that is the bridge between the Customer Support and UX/Product Design teams. I act as that bridge in my current role but on a more informal basis because it is a smaller company.

Would anyone be willing to share their perspective (positive or negative) on the Product/UX end of this relationship? I want to make sure to ask the right questions.
Thank you!

How much, on average, should a UX designer make as a mid-level and as a senior in Canada?

Question from a recent UX Bootcamp grad: I currently have a single case study in my portfolio. Upon reading somewhere that 2 case studies are required to be considered by recruiters, I stopped applying to jobs for about 2 months as I work on a second case study when I can.

Recruiters, Leads, PM’s etc., how do you feel about applicants with a single CS to show?

Any tips for writing a self-review? I have low self esteem and think I’m bad at everything, so it’s hard to know what to put in ‘super powers’ and ‘areas of development’. I don’t want to point out all the things I think I’m bad. On the other hand, I’m not sure what my strengths are. Any suggestions?

Any resume writers or coaches you'd recommend for Product Designers?

I worked at same place for 6 years and have done a few tech contracts. I've covered a lot of ground and I'm not sure how to frame it all.

Hi everyone,

I’m in a pit of a pickle…I’m leading my very first project (case study) with a team of 5. We’re all in different countries and different time zones 😬

What do I need to include on the project plan/roadmap so there’s a clear understanding of what our goals are? How do I get everything to align for success and how do I keep everyone motivated?

What's the best route for early career, agency or in-house?

What should I charge for an hourly rate for contract work (general UX)? I’m mid-level designer with 2 years experience. I used to work full time for the company so they know me well and have asked me to do 4-6 hours a week for a month or so. I’m based in the UK so £GBP rates 👍
