I'm a Production Artist. It's hard for me to come up with the kind of "achievements" employers are looking for on a resumé. I can describe my duties and skills, but the role doesn't lend itself to doing anything which stands out. One certainly doesn't have access to any metrics about how the 72 different billboards I produced moved anybody's bottom line.

Has anybody else faced this?

Definitely relatable. Any kind of ad performance metrics are not shared with those of us in Production.

I can relate. This information is not typically shared with the designer.

I feel contract training in my clients’ future...

2. 2nd gr teacher, capable and flexible but a little old school.
3. Parent, from foreign country, wants us to teach 2 years ahead of where student is at in math and reading in case they have to return to other country.
4. District's old standard for acceleration is at the 97th+ percentile and other students are much more"advanced".

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!
