Hi everyone,

I hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out with a heartfelt request. As an international student on OPT, I have only 90 days left to secure a UX Research job before my work authorization expires.

If anyone works at or knows companies hiring in UX Research, I’d deeply appreciate a referral or a connection to someone who can help. I have over 5 years of experience, including time at Google, and I’m confident I can bring value to any team.

I'd appreciate your help :)

Anyone succumb to the ads and try Il Makiage make up? Foundation/concealer. Their brilliant ads make me curious, but not sure why not seeing it at Sephora is getting in my way. (while I’m at, how about that Thrive mascara that is everywhere)?

I’m a product designer with about 5+ YOE I’m exploring courses/programs that one could take up as a mid career professional. I have a keen interest in Service Design, Behavioural Sciences, Design Research but not very sure about the opportunities. At the same time I’m open to exploring Product Mgmnt and Data science as along with design. Any recommendations?
PS: I already have a Masters in design.

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.

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.

UXRs: what products/services do you use the most in the course of your job? Would you recommend them?

Starting up a UX research discipline in my new company and looking to start us on the best footing.

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?

How’d you rate your company’s UX?

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!

I'm looking for market research on startup founders. This is incredibly difficult to find via search engine, because Googling "startup founders" + [insert search term] invariably finds sites and pages dedicated to teaching startup founders about market research topics.

Specifically, I want to build an empathy map for them.

Does anyone know where I can find market research about startup founders as a target market?

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?

Hey bowl 😄 looking for the Best Innovation/UX field certification programs !? I’m a vet and have approx 1.5yrs worth of GI Bill education benefits. Don’t necessarily want to do another degree as I think there are some really good certs to give me what I need to succeed.

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

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!

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

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

I’m looking for a UX Lead for a fully remote, US agency working on top notch brands. Anyone care to DM me your site?

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?

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.
