[@damiojetunji]

I have been job hunting for almost 5 months after transitioning from Architecture and I really needed this. It’s also lovely to see some representation, thank you!

[@uxtshili]

Thank you so much! Good luck with interviews, architects make great UX designers 😊

[@damiojetunji]

@@uxtshili Thank you so much! Subscribed and looking forward to more videos! 💕

[@ndounapoleon4501]

Thank you Tshilli you are brilliant. Carry on with good work ❤

[@zydbinak2561]

Hi I'm also an Architect and hoping to switch career to UI/UX design field and I'm quite interested in so I have finished my course on UX and have done the portfolio. May I know more about your yourself that did you get a job?

[@azpidi]

This was really great Tshili. Thanks for sharing. I love how detailed you were with each section. It would be great if you had a future episode about transitioning from traditional graphic design to a product or UI design position. Thanks again.

[@uxtshili]

Thats a great idea. Yes I'll add to the list

[@mathewskiran4010]

Making it all black and white was a great point to be noted, Thanks for the share!

[@uxtshili]

I'm glad you found it useful 😊

[@ramatumarie]

Really helpful video thank you! Really liked that you gave an example of how to write a job responsibility when you don’t have specific metrics

Thank you so much Tshili for breaking it down into the most simplest form. For having considered those with lesser work experience was really awesome. Your contents are always suitable for all. I really needed this since i am just starting out a career in ui/ux. God bless you

[@uxtshili]

Glad it was helpful! I will be doing a video for complete beginners soon 😊

i really love this video its well detailed and easy to understand, but if you dont mind i will like for you to make a video on userflow i have been having a really hard time understanding it.

[@uxtshili]

Yes, I will add that to the list 😊

[@thejas_HR]

The Question I have when it comes to mentioning the metrics on a resume is, How do we even get the information (Metrics) about how much impact we created?

[@uxtshili]

@@thejas_HR if it’s a live product check the data of the platform. Ask your engineers or data team for before and after. Or use data from user tests. Compare the results of the test before and after your re-design. Ask your PM for any other data improvements like increase in revenue.

[@nataliewiggins5894]

Thank you so much for this video. For the metrics part, what if I don't know the exact percentage for that job? Do people just make it up?

[@uxtshili]

Hey, thanks for watching. If you don't have percentages, you can just use positive impacts like 'Helped the team work faster to help customers'

[@MostcallmeTim]

Super helpful! Thank you so much.

I noticed the template is not letter size. Does that not matter? I guess nobody is printing these out.@@uxtshili

[@teddybeamerbeats4125]

This was very helpful :) I am personally applying for UX design jobs at the moment. Would love to know what font size and font type that you are using. Thank you!

[@uxtshili]

The font size is in the template, I think it was Inter at 10px

[@reema6732]

i have created 4 personal projects but i don't know how to write about Metrix rate as all of them created by me without any collaboration and testing how can I write about numbers in my resume please tell me i need to make a resume . please

[@uxtshili]

@@reema6732 The only way to have data for personal projects is to do user tests for the old design and and another for the new design. I have a video on how to do tests kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4q4fWOEZqudnsksi=DNywllTxkto9dO6p

[@kdylanjohan]

Thank you very much for the template, i have s little problem when I export the pdf file, when i selected the text an copy and paste some characters doesn't work :c

[@uxtshili]

Ohh no I'm sorry about that, not sure why, maybe its the font?

[@shahinahmadk]

Thank you so much for the good contents ❤ I have one question, i don't have any real projects but i have 2 case studies , one for a mobile app, one for a website. İ dont know how to measure the success of my projects in my resume. Is it fine to generally say i improved the experience of the users ?

[@uxtshili]

Yes you can, if you did any user testing then you can use that as measurements. e.g. "70% of users..."

[@artech5539]

I Found it very useful Tshili.

[@uxtshili]

Glad to hear that

[@Thue002]

What if your projects are real life but have not been shipped and you don’t have conversion rates to show impact? What are alternatives to express impact? For example I designed a new responsive website but the client was not ready to launch their site. As a career changer from being a teacher, do you recommend putting your previous work experience?

[@uxtshili]

That happens alot. You can talk about the % of when you tested it before handing it over to the client. You can user test the old and new designs yourself. Or just say you re-designed it. Yes include being a teacher, add the impact you made

[@AgbayewaTitilayo]

Please can you take classes on prototyping in figma?

[@uxtshili]

I have a video on prototyping.

[@Leochuks456]

Thanks for sharing what of does that haven't work for a company before

[@uxtshili]

I will be releasing a video for this soon

[@FahimAlMamun-y3k]

I notice that you didn't include your image in the resume. Can you tell me why the reason is ? And what your recommendation for this? Should i include image in my resume or not.

[@uxtshili]

Up to you, depends what is common practice in your country. For me the same reasons I mention in the video about keeping the layout simple for the ATS system that screens the resumes before a human sees them, it's easy to print when there's no colour. There's less discrimination as I am a minority, I want them to read my resume first before judging.

[@kosamaessien8056]

This was helpful. Please can you also make a video for Information Architecture in UX. Thanks

[@uxtshili]

Thanks for watching. Yes I’ll add it to the list 😊

[@_tshepiiyy]

Hey wanted to ask, if I did an online course for UX, can I also add it under education?/qualification
