[@riyagupta7913]

Congrats Wesley! Your UX journey gives me motivation 🙌⚡️

[@jansleyreal]

Wesley I'm not gonna lie, this is probably one of the best 'day/week in the life' UX vids I've seen because you SHOWED what was happening, as opposed to just talking about it. I was smiling through this my man, I'm happy for you!

[@lidiaaguilar180]

awwwww I used to be a barista and this is making me want to go back as a UX/UI Designer. I wanna come back home :(

[@fadzisomashava1346]

Thank you for this type of content bro. I'm really inspired by your journey. It makes believe that if you stay consistent, you'll make it in the end as a designer.

[@alfred.designs]

Glad you transitioned from a contact to full time position. Happy for you!

[@WesleyHongUX]

[@friendzy12]

Congrats Wesley! I recently started being interested in UX design. Thanks for the video. I also find you handsome 😉.

[@KristenAngelica]

I loved working at Starbucks! I hope you settle in nicely bro! Great video ✌🏽

[@apexsniper23]

[@WesleyHongUX]

HAHAHA, brainwashing me to be loyal to their products only...jk 🤣

Bro you are my biggest motivation I would love to be a uz designer like the way you are

[@chechibo283]

Awesome! Keep going and dont forget about us 😅✨

[@XCCoby96]

Great video! It would be great for you to have an upcoming video sharing how it was working with a UX Researcher since you used to do the research as a designer. It's particularly interesting for me since I'm a UX Researcher. It would be great to know more about your experience collaborating with them in your new role.

[@roter13]

I work at a company where we have our own UX Researchers and it is so efficient. They do all of their interviews and analysis and then make a presentation of findings. I take those findings and make wires/recommendations.

[@WesleyHongUX]

Yes, would love to share more as I experience it! I'm really looking forward to learning and working alongside researchers and see how we can help each other!

[@WesleyHongUX]

@roter13 Do you miss owning the research part of the ux design process at all? Assuming you used to do it before? As someone who's been a ux generalist for all of his career, it feels like I'm losing an aspect that I do enjoy, but it feels great to know I dont have to do everything, and I can do it with someone else who is more experienced than me in the research area.

[@roter13]

@@WesleyHongUX I kind of miss it because I like the research part so I ask to at least listen in on some user testing sessions and if I have my own questions, I come off mute. I do like being able to focus in on one thing however.

[@XCCoby96]

@@WesleyHongUX Thanks for considering! I look forward to your upcoming videos as you get acclimated in your new role.

[@cynp7277]

Congrats! Thanks for sharing this seemed like such a nice experience 🎉

[@WesleyHongUX]

Thank you! ❤️

[@Joschmo939]

This video has kept me grounded and continually motivated to grind through my UX learning journey. As of now, I have to put a temporary hold on my learning due to unforeseen responsibilities, but I can’t wait to settle everything else so I can get my mind back on track! Thank you so much for the awesome video, Wes!! 🤙🏽

[@WesleyHongUX]

I appreciate the kind words! Hoping for the best for you and your UX journey!

[@josoyadi]

following for a while now, while devouring ux/ui content here. and this is so wholesome, going to full time in a company you love and enjoy :D

[@WesleyHongUX]

Thank you 🙏

[@alexei.design]

The background music is little too loud. I'm having trouble paying attention to what you are saying because the music is drowning you out. Congrats on your new job by the way!

[@WesleyHongUX]

Thank you for the constructive feedback! Are you specifically talking about the music when I'm talking? If so, yea definitely a problem haha

[@alexei.design]

@@WesleyHongUX Yes, the music playing in the background when you were speaking- especially at the end during the First Week Recap section of the video. It was very distracting. 😕

[@vickylivevideomaker8435]

Is there any way to learn ux design to gain opportunities you have

[@WesleyHongUX]

Biggest thing for me....NETWORKING. Reach out to people, pick their brains, learn, be hungry and humble. Wouldn't be here without it.

[@roter13]

Could you do a video partly in Korean? I think it would be cool

[@WesleyHongUX]

Thank you for the idea! Sadly my korean isn't that great haha.

[@vickylivevideomaker8435]
