Finding a job in the realm of UI/UX and product design can be a daunting task, particularly for junior designers. Here are some of the key hurdles that I believe contribute to the complexity and frustration of this process: #UIUXDesign #FindingJob #JuniorDesigners #Hiring #UIUX

We have so many product design role names that it’s confusing not only to non-designers but also to the designers themselves 😅 - Product Designer - UX/UI Designer - UX Designer - UI Designer - Product Experience Designer - Interaction Designer - Service Designer - Interface Designer - Web designer - … Some of these roles are getting separated because of the skillset required. For example, UX and UI. But some of them are just different names for the same thing. So what can we do with all this? These are just names. We should focus more on the responsibilities and what we can do for our customers and business. I think this naming issue was driven by the super fast growth of the Tech industry in the previous decade, and now things are going slower and more consciously. All these redundancies across different companies, hiring freezes, fewer design roles, and the boost of AI are all signals of transformation. Once again, don’t think a lot about the names, focus on the impact you can deliver 🚀 #uxui #productdesign #futureofdesign

Lately, my job search has been flooded with Senior-level UX Designer positions. The opportunities for experience designers are great, but where are the entry-level jobs for people like me? It feels impossible to get that crucial experience in order to grow as a designer. We need opportunities to gain experience, but most openings require experience to begin with. 😕 #UXDesign #EntryLevel #JobSearch #DesignCommunity
