I’m in the process of completing a UX/UI certificate to pivot from marketing design. But I’m so burnt out from my current role is it to early to apply to ux/ui? Has anyone transitioned from in house design to ux/ui and have advice?

I’m feeling the same way right now!
I’ve been sitting in my car for 30 minutes not wanting to go into work. Which UX/UI certificate program did you choose?

I feel that. I went with the Google certificate.

How bad is it to reneg?
I’m moving to SF and got a job offer at a large startup. It took 2 months to get through the interview process. They have an offer out to me and I haven’t signed bc at the last second FANG reached out and said they’d created a position for me and wanted me to do a final round interview next week. It took me 100 days to get the first offer and I move in 5 weeks. I don’t want to turn down the startup because I need to survive but feel bad planning to reneg & interviewing.
