Day in the life of a UX Designer (London)

[@JackJenkinsYT]

*filmed on Wednesday 8th September not 9th 😄

[@Energyopticzz]

I’d really like to see you breakdown more of what you do during your work sessions as a UX designer. Learning things like that could potentially give a beginner like myself a huge learning lesson and I’d feel less worried about my first job role as a UX or UI designer. :)

These videos are 90% about their meals and gym and little to nothing about ux.

[@sophiekirwan4037]

Thank you Jack - I would like to see a day in the office video please

[@Educationfact6564]

HI, Jack Your video are very informative and very Useful to my Life. I want to learn UX Design in London. You can help and improve my skill. 🥰🤗🤗😇

[@ALEX-oj9up]

Great content man. I’m currently a graphic designer near Manchester. I’m looking for UX courses, would you suggest that a university degree is essential or is online learning respected the same?

Not me thinking this was Gary Vaynerchuk from the thumbnail

[@Rushiikeshkshirsagar]

There’s only Figma software which can make ux case study and user flow and wire fram for under graduatee’s 😮

[@abhishekmagunta]

Hey Jack! Greetings from India. I am planning to do my MSc in User experience in UK. Do you have any universities that you recommend?

How does your pc look like a MacBook when it isn’t a mac did you buy it like that or have to install a software

[@edenvaz3524]

Hi Jack, can you share your experience in getting the job as I have just finished my course from UX designing institution and I am trying my best to get a job. Any advice will be helpful. Thanks in advanced 😊

[@smilli6415]

can you do a tell us what your main daily tasks are as a UX designer from Home please.. for newbie ux designers what type of work to expect .. thank you

[@JackJenkinsYT]

As I work for an agency that has startup clients I work on the entire design process including user research, ideation, prototyping, dev handovers, design reviews etc. So depending where we are with a project or features my daily tasks are different :)

Do you really sleep around 21:30?

[@kiracurtin7888]

hi there! I live in London and am thinking of doing an online bootcamp in uX Design - and wanted your advice as someone in the industry already - would you say hiring managers are only interested in applicants with degrees? or would a bootcamp qualification and good portfolio / case study be enough to get a job? I would so appreciate your guidance on this as im trying to decide which route to pursue to become a UX Designer ! (I just finished high school and can't afford uni fees at moment which is why bootcamp seems better option)

Dig the video! Is that a keychron keyboard?

[@JackJenkinsYT]

Thanks! And yes it is

[@isabellamorales.studio]

Hi, I'm almost finishing my Brainstation bootcamp in London in UX and UI. Do you have any tips on how to get a job? Also, what is your salary? Thank you!

Which monitor are you using?

[@lakshyapvtt1241]

Hi Jack, Are there good opportunities for junior UX designers in London. I'm planning to pursue Msc in User experience design in uk ?

[@somzie]

Hi Jack. Got any ideas of the best agencies in London or outskirts that give daily freelance contracts?

[@robward367]

Can I ask, what sort of 4G/5G mobile Internet (eg EE 3 etc) speeds do you get in your flat / doors closed? (Lot of development there, working in the industry interested to know, that's all, thanks)

[@devcanas]

Really like your videos! Can you tell me what that coffee maker is?

[@JackJenkinsYT]

Thanks! The coffee maker is called an AeroPress, I've added a link for it to the description 🙂

[@FullerUK]

What’s the desk you use man? Looks amazing.

[@JackJenkinsYT]

Flexispot EF1, I've made a review of it on my channel if you want to know more :)

[@KhanTeam07]

Hi Jack, Are there good opportunities for junior UX designers in London. I'm planning to pursue Msc in User experience design at the the University of Brighton.

[@JackJenkinsYT]

Definitely! I don't think there is a better place in the UK for finding a UX position. Although, most UX positions are now remote so I wouldn't prioritise work when it comes to your location but more the lifestyle you want to live

[@KhanTeam07]

[@kierandickerson4553]

Hi Jack, just wondering what was your route to becoming a ux designer, did you study at uni or?

[@JackJenkinsYT]

Yeah I studied a part time masters in User Experience Design at Falmouth University, I have a couple videos about it on my channel :)

[@AhmetEfeoglu]

Dude your gym bro expression made me spill tea. You must be ashamed 🤣

[@JackJenkinsYT]

[@andresramirez4469]

does ux design involve code?

[@JackJenkinsYT]

It doesn't but some code knowledge or experience helps with certain parts such as communicating designs to developers
