Please don't promote the false dream that people can transition into the UX field with the help of a UX bootcamp. In the current job market, even people with master's degrees in UX-related fields are having a hard time landing a job, let alone bootcamp graduates. Don't sell the dream that you can become a product designer after taking a 3-4 month bootcamp. Those are all lies!

This!! While it's not entirely impossible, it is very difficult. I have a few BootCamp friends who managed to score nice UX jobs after completing their boot camp, but it is also all about timing, connections, and how well your research or design skills are. On the flip side, I've seen a handful of BootCamp grads still searching for a UX job 1-2 years later with NO LUCK and end up doing something else.

The people saying she’s telling lies, selling a dream… I think you are unfortunate. She is giving clear and useful information about things she would do if learning UX now. She also has a brand deal. Don’t be a hater!!!! Don’t give up or actually go ahead and give up and I’ll take the job 🤠

Glad I’ve came across your channel, I’ve been a designer for four years and you’ve been really helpful!

Good listen, but the timing of the video and audio is alternating between sync and desync.

It’s VERY difficult to be hired in this field. Most of the companies don’t even CARE or know they need a product designer…

@urdarkside1 3 ай бұрын

what course(s) did you take to learn the business standpoint of a product designer?

@cheerupjazzy 3 ай бұрын

These are some really good tips, thank you! I appreciate the honesty of the industry and what companies are looking for; that's really helpful. I'm super new to all of this and still figuring out the best path for me. I wanted to know your opinion on this: if I decide to go the self taught route, wouldn't I still be able to be in community, get to network with other designers, and get feedback by joining like LinkedIn or a Reddit group? Is it more beneficial to instead join a course? I assume I could even find a mentor without joining a course or bootcamp too. I am most likely gonna go the course route for the structure but was just curious what you thought. Have a blessed day!

Hi Charli For a job, how important is it for us to fully master Figma like perfecting Auto Layout and making pretty fancy prototypes? Or would you say it’s better to have a general understanding of how to use it/UI principles, and mostly just relying on existing components/the company’s design system.

what matters is your ability to be creative with solving problems, the tools matter but not as much as you think, they only help present solutions. focus on being a good communicator and a good problem solver, not just with regards to ux, but also with people, conflict management, etc.

As a UX/UI Designer in the field, I would say very. That's just one of the things everyone else applying for the job will likely be able to do, especially since you can learn it in a few hours
