I’m transitioning into UX from product and UI, can I leverage my years of experience when applying (negotiating) though I don’t have much UX and research background?

Product as in product design? Or PM?

yeah you'll be fine OP, the skillsets are not vastly different. Good luck!

I feel like product design is largely both UX and ui

You switched from Product Manager into Design? Would love to understand why, just because it’s usually the other way around. I wanted to make the switch but worries about starting from base. I’m about 3 years into my PM career

There is a lot of overlap between Product Design, UI Design, and UX Design, and to a certain degree, Graphic Design. I don't think you should have a problem.

Is it ok to tell your boss/job that you're looking to transition to product, and tell recruiters you're looking for roles in product before you've quit your other job? Or should I wait until I get an offer before telling anyone. I don't want to lose my job or disappoint my boss but product is where I want to end up and I'm working towards that.

I looked at Wix online booking system but you can only schedule staff by working hours. Built sites on WP before but lacking in time currently.

There's a debate about this going on in the Google bowl, which I find interesting. Most people are saying they don't have a problem with this, but I think it's deeply unfair.

The argument that resonates with me is that if you move to a LCOL city the value of your output isn't all of sudden worth 25% less.

Curious what others in the industry think.
