Please provide me your thoughts about error messages. Do you think the average user knows what 404, 401, 501 errors mean? Do you think they care? Would you just explain the problem and solution (my preference)? Or would you also educate them about the code?

How is WLB at a MM fund different from a MF? I’ve heard MF are worse on average, but what makes it worse? Is it just the hours, or is the work also significantly different?

First post? Ok I will start. My SPG nights for 2018 dropped from 101 to 91 after the merger.

The left is the Prius driver in the far left lane going 55 mph on a multi-lane highway holding up multiple drivers and causing traffic (making things worse for everyone else).

The right is none of the above, wants everyone to succeed, and get to where they need to go.

Fitbit Charge 5 or Apple watch?

I like that Fitbit is cheaper and has better sleep analysis it seems but hate the lack of band options I’ve found online. I don’t need my phone at my wrist either which is why I’m leaning towards the Fitbit. Anyone feel strongly about either one and why?

Was curious on the status of the border wall: (1) only 5 miles of new new wall built since 2016, (2) being paid for from our military budget and the treasury forfeiture fund, not Mexico. Are you tired of winning yet? 😂😂😂

Cleared the technical round.I have received an email to submit the docs. But none were called me regarding the salary discussion. Usually how many days it will take to get the feedback

Hi everyone,
How much do you think a CHT of 7 years should be making in New Jersey.
I also had 2 years as a secretary prior to becoming a technician.

I am looking into a Product Manager role at M&T Bank. Does anyone know the salary range or can tell me about the work/life balance?

Any good site/utube channel to learn SAP HANA

Those who recently joined ARA how was the transition? Any advise on what I can look/research on now to help on my first couple of assignments?

We are looking to hire a FTE for systems integration. We are using Mulesoft as an IPAAS. I’m part of the hiring team. The pay is 6 figures it is fully remote, the benefits are insanely good and it can be your second job if you are very good. If you are great, it’s probably 15-20 hours of work per weeks. If you are good enough, I will even cover for you to coordinate with your primary job. DM me if you are interested as I’m tired of the crappy recruiting company we are contracted with.

Hi Fishes,

I am trying to explore and obtain a career opportunity in UK or Europe. Could you all help me with how to go about it or any suggestion how to get an interview and move to UK for work.

Has anyone in your company heard the word (cross-connect) or (leased Line) perhaps you have heard this from the network team at your financial institution?

Is it possible to transfer from audit 8 months in to FDD considering this market? I feel undervalued and want to contribute more…

Hii! Looking for compensation range for a mid level researcher in San Diego, California!
Do all companies provide a sign in bonus? What’s that like?

Hey guys! I'm working on pivoting into ux research (background in product management and an MSc in marketing). Any recommendations for ux research certifications? Something that is well respected and well known and also provides a solid foundation of ux?

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

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.

How’d you rate your company’s UX?

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.

How important was your portfolio to land your first UXR job? There are mixed messages out there...

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.

Hi, anyone with knowledge/experience in UX Writing, and if so, do you have advice for someone brand new to it? I currently have a job in Medical Writing-- can I use that as a selling point to ask for a higher salary?

How do you approach usability testing for new onboarding sequences? I work with a variety of SaaS businesses and recently requests have come in to test onboarding prototypes.

New users are the first to touch onboarding so how do I recruit the appropriate participants to test? Recruiting new users doesn’t seem feasible, I would think we should run A/B tests and cross-check analytics to measure success? Any insight is appreciated!

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.

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

What should I ask for compensation for UX designer II level5 Amazon ? I am remote based in Chicago

After a long interview process, I had to decline an offer from Amazon. I was really excited, but they wanted to start me as an L4. I already have offers on the table $15,000 more then the possible top compensation an L4 can get.

Makes me sad. Has anyone else been real excited about a possible job and have been low balled?

Any advice on getting started in UX?

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?

What tools are you all using for user journey mapping?

Have you enjoyed working in UI/UX/Product design for a startup? Why or why not?

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?
