So I've been interning for a month with this company. I had my weekly meeting with the stakeholders and I presented our team's progress for the week. It's an AI startup and we're working on incorporating a f e e d back feature on the web app. They wanted to incorporate AI (of course) as a way to gather surveys and f e e d back from the customers. While everyone was presenting visually appealing designs, we were more focused on research, mainly on how users would feel about using AI as a survey tool. I raised a point of doing some research first about our users, and see how they like using a c ..read more

I was laid off in January from my UX/UI Lead role and I still haven’t found a solid job yet, I’ve just been having my time wasted after 1-2 interviews from 4 different places that all ended up ghosting. I’ve sent out at least 550 applications so far, for any job type and level. (I know I’m not the only one, and a lot of us are going through something similar.) I’ve never had such a hard time securing a job in UX/UI in the 18 years I’ve been in the field (web design before UX/UI was a “thing”) besides COVID or the 2008 recession. I took a general IT support contract for 1/2 of my normal rate t ..read more

I know that many people are struggling to find a job right now, so I put together a list of 200 UX jobs in the United States and Canada.

Hi all I’m currently completing an introduction into UX design as part of my uni course. As part of a project, we’re required to conduct user interviews - I was thinking it might be an idea to see if Reddit wanted to contribute? My project subject is the Spotify mobile app. As part of the project I can’t give you context as to specifically what the goal of the project is to keep the answers as unbiased as possible. You’ll also notice they’re quite surface level/have obvious ansers - this is deliberate as it’s an introduction course. Feel free to answer as many as questions if you feel up to i ..read more

Post your portfolio or something else you've designed to receive a critique. Generally, users who include additional context and explanations receive more (and better) feedback. Critiquers: Feedback should be supported with best practices, personal experience, or research! Try to provide reasoning behind your critiques. Those who post don't only your opinion, but guidance on how to improve their portfolios based on best practices, experience in the industry, and research. Just like in your day-to-day jobs, back up your assertions with reasoning. submitted by /u/Lord_Cronos [visit reddit] [co ..read more

I’m happy to say I’ve made it this far, but am pretty nervous about this in person round. I’m getting the feeling that I’m being tested on my planning skills and how to manage my time well. I have been given little guidance around what to expect. What I have been told is that a few members from the design team will be present and I should expect some questions from them as well as to ask them questions. I was told in my last round that many people do a portfolio review but have been given no guidance about time allotted for this or the amount of case studies to cover. I broached the subject b ..read more

First of all, am I supposed to stick to just 4 font sizes through the website or on a page (including the header and the footer)? If I am, how am I supposed to use just 4 font sizes building from the smallest font? Like on a blog page, the smallest font would be 18px for good readability of long texts. Starting from there I could increase the sizes for different functions, until I have 4 sizes. However, on a e-commerce product page, 18px is too large for it. I would need to start with 16px since it's better for some labels. I'm a little confused to how the rule of 4 is to be followed and when ..read more
