I'm looking for a UX mentor in Conversational Interfaces

1, I just started working in chatbots for enterprise and I want to learn more about conversation design. I think I eventually want to do voice UX most likely for consumer.

2, In the next 5 years I want to transition into working more freelance and only taking the work I want to do. I'd love to talk to someone who's done that before.

3, I want to focus on building my reputation online.

Love to set up a short call if there's a match! ❤️

I turned 30 yesterday and I just now realized something about this job. It may not apply to everyone, but it seems to click for me.

Each and every audit/assurance engagement I’m on will be successful if BOTH the client and engagement team (and their expectations) are properly managed.

I’ve stumbled my way to M1 without realizing this. I was always focused on the engagement team and relied on motivated clients to keep up their end of the bargain. Glad I’ve realized this heading into year two.

Have the opportunity to join a startup consultancy as a Product Manager and move away from the big 4.

Going to be employee 15 as opposed to an org with ~650K employees.

Same pay. A LOT of growth opportunity. Less overall benefits, but I think the experience will net me out to be a Director in just a year or two within the org, and a lot of potential to move out from there.

I'm slightly terrified, but the team feels awesome, and they have some big clients.

Hello! I wanted to offer some advice to students. I’m a 15yr experience Sr. TA & I want to let students know that the format of your resume can make or break.

Also, project managers - if the resume isn’t organized, precise, structured - this tells me you can not manage complex projects.
