5 levels of UI skill. Above 4 gets you hired.

[@SzabatDesign]

After all of Michal's courses I am at level 5 and normally work freelance for various clients with results :) Thank you Michal for your knowledge!

[@owcaandroid]

Well, in that case I leave this video with hope, thank you :D PS great playlist with trance, saved :)

[@jeros2911]

Great video Michal, thank you for posting! I have been watching you for around a year now, I even bought your UI Design book and it has been extremely helpful, you have contributed so much to my growth so just wanted to say thank you and keep up the amazing work like you always do! ❤❤🔥🔥

[@centygo]

When you showed level 2 I was already scared of level 1, but when I saw it I remembered that I already took projects like this for redesign 😢

[@MalewiczHype]

Yes, they do exist!

[@dotpenji]

Your detailed breakdown of the five levels for junior designers is incredibly helpful for those looking to improve their design skills. Can you share a specific tip or technique that junior designers often overlook when trying to reach Level 4 or above?

[@abdoo3301]

The level 1 might be indeed rare but i have seen so many of those in "self guided" community groups especially from Google UX Course ☠️ and the typos are even in some level 4 work too, about time people start giving "copy" the due attention it needs. Besides that, as always golden content and the transitions were 🎯😎

[@MalewiczHype]

Yeah typos happen - of course, but in a portfolio it's really crucial to check it every single time and just be sure :) Thanks!

[@gamelabpc6591]

Is Google ux course that bad ? I wanna learn ux design. I do have a designer background...how do I learn uiux design on my own ..can you tell me what are the things I should study ...please

[@abdoo3301]

@@gamelabpc6591 @Malewicz has a whole 7 part series of his review for the Google UX Course, check that out first and you will have a lot more clarity :)

[@matthewperez1572]

@@gamelabpc6591 I think it's a good course for UX, but they don't teach you UI, so you are going to see many bad UI designs.

[@another.designer]

I would Agree that some people as you've said, self Guided provide worst design in Google Ux Course. But not everyone is bad, I've encountered some quite talended designers on Google Ux Design course.

[@ikramloumi9181]

amazing video , this type of video make us to observe and learn more the mistakes that we always do in our design , So thank you and please keep up Michal.

[@MalewiczHype]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kyokobm]

Thank you for this video! Now I know I have so much to improve :'3 I'll try to become lvl 4 at least asap! 🙏👏

[@MalewiczHype]

Go for it!

[@another.designer]

I've observed on thing that managing consist spacing is quite challenging. You've to divide the frame and design elements in systematic way to achieve it. For most of my Designs I'm on level 4 and sometimes on 5.

[@MalewiczHype]

Yes, that is very important. Even with bad typography and colors, if spacing is right it will feel instantly better.

[@fernwehl1541]

As much as I am impressed with the flashy marketing (in attempt to get us to purchase your courses) and the great editing of the video with the impressive designs you have included, it doesn't matter how "SKILLED" the designer is for level 5 if they don't even know how to use auto layouts and make repeatable components in the design.

[@MalewiczHype]

I disagree. People need to learn how to make something good, autolayout and components are for larger projects with dev work, but what buts you in is a very strong visual side. Not tools.

[@tiffa2305]

I have a new found confidence in my designs. Thank you! 😂

[@MalewiczHype]

That is one of my goals 💪

Great as always!

not really related to the vid but i NEED to see you roast zdajto, its design is PAINFUL

no idea what that is 😱

i am a 2 month beginner i think i am at level 5 already hahahah thank you a lot for the insight!

[@MalewiczHype]

congrats

[@kelindrawn]

The Restaurants tab in the first design (Level 5) should also have a slight gradient, yes?

[@MalewiczHype]

not necessarily - single color makes it stand out from the button

Second!

[@maxmustermann5353]

What actual apps did you design? I would love to see what a final product originating from your design looks like.

[@MalewiczHype]

A couple hundred. squareblack.com - we will be adding more to the portfolio soon too.

[@maxmustermann5353]

@@MalewiczHype Yeah I was on your site before, but I was having trouble to find the actual apps from the mentioned companies. For example; I would love to try out the App you've made for "booking Holdings" but I don't know what the actual Apps name is or where your design was implemented. I would like to experience the full UX with your design. By the way, thanks for making great design accessible for everyone, I already learned so much from your awesome guides and videos. 👍

[@carlosestefan]

Hello, Michal! Quick question: I want to purchase "Design Better UI: Mobile Apps Bundle" or the ebook "Designing User Interfaces." I have previous knowledge as a designer, but I want to strengthen my fundamentals and level up my work. Unfortunately, I have money just for one (even with the 20% discount). Which one would you recommend me to buy?

[@MalewiczHype]

the courses are more hands-on and practical 🫡

[@dianadamyanova918]

Where is your shirt from?????????????

[@MalewiczHype]

some artsy store in Stockholm but don’t remember the name

[@PP-po3ri]

Hi, do you think artificial intelligence and Midjourney tools will replace UI designers in the near future, and the demand will only be for UX?

[@MalewiczHype]

no, ai will not replace designers. Having strong generalist skills is super important though- ui, ux, some strategy and business skills, and soft skills.

[@SamyadeepPurkayastha]

I remember seeing the mobile version of it and improving myself (at least I believe)

[@tylerpixel]

I am Level 5 and still have trouble getting hired

[@MalewiczHype]

There's other factors too - like networking, thinking outside of the box, having enough stuff in your portfolio and being open minded. Those levels are just the minimum entry for UI roles, given everything else is also in place.

[@PetersonJoseph]

TO me, when Im looking at junior portfolios for consideration, spelling errors and Lorem Ipsum is THE laziest thing you can easily fix. That's an instant resume in the trash.

[@MalewiczHype]

Yeah, same with me.

[@jayasuriyaj3470]

dude no one designs like level 1, and just because you are in level 5 doesn't mean you will get a job... just UI doesn't mean anything

[@MalewiczHype]

You'd be surprised how many level 1 projects I receive for feedback - from all over the world. And UI does matter for a lot of companies. So no, level 5 doesn't guarantee you a job, but being under level 4 practically guarantees you won't get one.

[@brain_respect_and_freedom]

To make a long story short: don't be sloppy👍

[@dekuparadox5972]

I like the old internet more. :( All this new UI stuff is simplistic and dumb! :/ Level 2 was the best tbh! >_

[@MalewiczHype]

I also like the old internet, but things must also serve a purpose - there's still room for experiments with skeuomorphism mixed in with current trends and I will be building some stuff to prove it :)
