Have you ever read up on human-computer interaction theories? I think UX is really focused on the psychology of users as they interact with a digital or experiential products, so that will give you a cursory understanding.

One front end SWE that I work with has a lot of UX background and she recommends “Designing with the Mind in Mind” by Jeff Johnson. Haven’t read it but she said that book “most clearly communicates the convergence of psychology, brain chemistry, interaction design”

A little confused - are you talking about actual UX to the customer or how to explain your findings to internal stakeholders?

Actual product UX. Explaining stuff internally is just the existing extent of my design background.

Looking to get into SaaS sales but my experience is in construction and fine furniture (I was a sales manager and was able to lead my team of 4 people to consistently hit 450k monthly targets). I did that for almost 2 years before making the switch. I miss sales, though. Does anyone have any connections to companies looking? I have also considered a sales analyst role considering that I am moderately versed in Salesforce and have worked both the customer facing and sales generating side. TIA!

Hi all -
Sorry for the long rant, but could use advice or just encouragement.

Got laid off for the first time in my career 3 weeks ago. I have 10 years of PM experience (mostly ecommerce & experimentation). I was fortunate in the past to have had recruiters scout me directly so this is the first time in over a decade that I am applying to everything that I’m qualified for, mostly qualified for, and way over qualified for with zero leads. Only 3 interviews thus far that didn’t go forward.
