Thanks Nicki 🤍
🤩
excellent videos.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Thanks ! So helpful!!!🎉
That's so wonderful to hear! 🤩
So easy to understand ❤
I’m glad you think so 😊
what about 3d modeler and graphic designer
Not sure about 3D modeler, you need to research the area. Good luck! Graphic design is tough…I talked about it in the video 😊
I think that's a good design, it's unlikely that users will be interested in all the Q&As, so why show all the information to let them read? In this scenario, leave the control to the users by using accordion is much reasonable I believe:)
👏
Hi, just wanted to know your business email? If you can please tell. Need to connect with you on something
I am a graphic/ digital designer with a degree in graphic design and 5 years of experience, in my head it sounds so simple to branch out to UX design, but I'm constantly battling my inner voice saying, "Do you really want to be a junior again?"🙈 In the last 3 years that was the only thing that has stopped me. So my only question is, does my current design experience count for something when I start looking for jobs within UX product design or am I better off trying to find entry-level jobs? BTW I came across this channel just yesterday and so far I'm loving it! Your videos are so in-depth and filled with useful information. 💖💖
Thank you so much for the kind words, it means a lot 🤩 I don't think you need to be junior again. You have many transferrable skills from graphic design and can get at least an intermediate position or even a senior if you're applying for jobs at smaller companies. And...when you look at job ads, you soon notice that entry-level UX is not really entry-level (sadly). Have self-confidence. If your portfolio demonstrates your skills, you don't need to go for an internship or associate-level position. Test the job market & try to aim higher! What's the worst thing that could happen? I wish you the best of luck! 🤗
Szia! Miután megnéztem az első videódat, úgy döntöttem, hogy az összes videódat megnézem! Remélem, a végére én is olyan zseni leszek, mint te! Ha a következő napokban eltűnök, ne aggódj, csak a videómaratonodat nézem! Köszönöm a megosztást, készülj fel egy szuper rajongóra! 😂📺
AI or Google Translate, haha 😅

Please tell scope of mba in New zealand????
I'm not familiar with the curriculum of an MBA, but I assume it depends on the subject area. You need to do your own research, as I can't help.
@@nikitisza Mam I had done my MBA HRM form the best Business School of India, that is XLRI Jamshedpur, I'm working as HR Consulting with Deloitte India, Current Work ex - 1.5 years , please tell how is the scope and growth rate of Human resources professional in Australia & New Zealand, As I heard Australia racism is big barrier for Indian Folks, for HR , they don't prefer Indian or Asian, they stick to Europeans, In New Zealand it is as it is or something different?? Please elaborate, Lots of love & Regards from Delhi, India ♥️🙏🏻🇳🇿
Hi ~Niki, thanks for your video.I'm a entry level designer, and I'm interested in ur friend's experience of seeking a job.What did she do during the 18 months?Iare there any parttime chances to do or any benefit projects for fresh to practice what they learned?
She was doing office administration full-time and had a few opportunities to work on design-related projects for the company she was admining for. Eventually, she got a job somewhere else. Entry level is challenging - nowadays, even seniors struggle. I don't want to discourage you; be prepared for lots of networking.
This is very helpful. Thank you
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it 😊
Hi niki! I'm planning to pursue a master's degree in New Zealand, and I'm interested in the UX Master's program at Victoria University of Wellington. I would like to know about the career prospects for UX designers in New Zealand and whether there are ample job opportunities in Wellington.
Hi 👋 I went into details in the video. Things are pretty much the same…being an entry-level UXD and getting a job fresh out of school is challenging. New Zealand is a small country, so job opportunities are better in Australia or other larger countries.
What about data analyst and data engineer jobs , are they in demand
I wouldn't say they are in demand in NZ, but you can certainly secure a job. Larger consultancies would be your best bet, as smaller companies usually don't hire specialists.
@@nikitisza IS THERE ANY AGENCEY OR COMPANIES THAT OFFER VISA SPONSERSHIP FOR IT JOBS ? AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH NZ HEALTCARE ? IS IT FREE FOR IMMIGRANTS AND IS THERE LONG DURATION WAITING TIME
Hi Niki, your voice is really melodious ❤. I really love listening to you. Can you suggest how easy it is for a foreigner to get job in data analyst roles after master's in NZ, considering he has BS (IT) and 2+ years of experience in finance job at MNC. Can the irrelevant MNC work experience help in getting job?
Oh, thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you like my voice 😀 I found that your best chance to secure a data analyst job is to apply for larger consultancy firms. Small companies usually can't afford to hire a specialist, so KPMG and PwC would be my first choices. Good luck!
Hi niki i am sai from India working as customer service and sales specialist now I am planning to study masters New Zealand. How are the job prospects for international student after completion of studies. Can I get entry level jobs in marketing??
You can, but it's tough, like everywhere…it’s best to get some work experience through an internship and apply for jobs just to position yourself better.
Great advice! Changing careers can be daunting, but it's never too late to pursue something new.
Yes, exactly! Thanks for watching!
It was a really good explanation, very helpful content i enjoy this one, love it 👏
I’m so glad you found the video helpful!
This video delivers an incredible message that should reach everyone's ears!
Thanks Thomas! I’m glad you liked it. There is a longer version of it linked 😊
Hey, Niki. I am Nikhil, from India. I am planning to study UX design abroad. Does New Zealand have a demand for this course? What is the average salary?
Hi Nikhil! I made a video all about the NZ market, which you might find useful: How to get a job INSTANTLY in tech IT in New Zealand | UX designer working and living in New Zealand ruclips.net/video/F4yck8XuKBQ/видео.html It's tough to be an entry-level UX designer everywhere. The demand is there, but more for people with at least a couple of years of experience.
😂❤ watching this video is like hearing my voice out loud ❤😂
Haha, that's great to hear! Thank you for commenting!
definitely this is worth watching. I liked your tone and the explanation, calmed and helpful. These days everything seems a tiktok content rushed and loud
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked my tone and explanation. I try to make my videos in a way that's easy to digest, and the TikTok style doesn't really work for it. I'm happy to hear this resonated with you! Thanks for watching.
Hi Niki! I am a Software Engineer here in the Philippines... Do I need to get my documents assess by the NZQA before I can apply for a job relevant to my field?
For job applications, you don't need an assessment. But for securing your visa, yes. It takes about 4-6 weeks to get the assessment done. Good luck!
@@nikitisza Do IT Companies there would accept applicants offshore?
@@nmcnickomusicchannel8242 is 4-6 weeks or months? NZQA is only required for residence VISA applications
Yes this just a right to do both good for project managers, by the way❤️
Yes, it works for PMs too!
Thanks
☺️ you’re welcome!
You use marker. If you place an element in some place, and later if u feel I want to change it's place, what do you do?
Yes, I use markers, and if I make a mistake, I redo the sketch. It only takes a minute to do so. You can use a pencil and eraser if you like, but I do like to keep the progress and all iterations of my sketches.
Isn't this a waste of paper?
I think it’s also intentional so you don’t think too much on it. By using a thick sharpie you cannot go into details too much either
Hey Niki, great video! could you please let me know let me know about the BA/functional consultant market in NZ?
If you have a couple of years of experience, it's super easy to secure a BA role, especially in a government agency in Wellington, so that's what I'd recommend you try. Contracting pays the best. However, the new government wants to reduce the number of contractors, so time will tell... Consultancy is everywhere in NZ, but be aware of the terrible work-life balance if you start working for one of the Big 4s.
Hi, how is the ICT/tech community growth there in spite of NZ main field are agriculture, forestation & others. Is it growing well and high demand nowadays since post-pandemic? Btw, I'm looking for Data field jobscopes opportunity later on
Of course, there's IT industry. Here's some info you might find useful: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_technology_industry_in_New_Zealand
Please friend help job
Can you help me job search
You gotta do your own job search...look up the job boards in your country and type your keywords. LinkedIn and Indeed are good international job boards; start there.
Two years down the line but thanks so much for this video Nikki! I'm currently in my 2nd year of studies and an aspiring UX and UI designer and am deeply concerned about my abilities, so I looked all over for ways to improve. One of the most frustrating things is when you know at the back of your mind that a design is off, whether it's someone else's or your own, but you don't know why, nor how to improve it.
Thank you for commenting and watching! I do feel your pain. The taste and knowing what needs to be changed will come in time. I know it's frustrating...I've been there. Keep at it, and your skills will improve. Good luck with your design journey!
Hey, Been watching a few videos about this and the differences, but you explained it really simple and clear. Thankyou
I’m so happy to hear that! ☺️
thanks a lot
You're welcome 😊
Useful info. Thanks
I’m glad to hear it 😊
What are the Career Opportunities with the skills of Microsoft Excel?
What can you do in Excel? Are you thinking of data analysis or data entry? I don't know much about regular office jobs with data entry, and for data analysis, you also need R and/or Python knowledge.
so how do i get expirience ! i am currently in an internship and when I am interviewing they see I am in an internship and then they say that they want real experience... i am like WHAT DO YOU MEAN !!! i need a job some one hire me I am a very hard worker :_(
Is this a paid internship? If so, add it to your resume so hiring managers know you didn't work for free, and it's a real job. Only paid internships are treated as such. Sadly, if it's not a paid internship, that's not treated equally. I understand it's tough right now, not only for juniors but also seniors. For comparison, about 18 months ago, I applied for over 200 jobs to secure 3 interviews. So you need to keep applying for positions! Right now, it's a number game. The industry will recover in 5 years or so, but in 2023-2024, it's pretty tough.
Niki... What happened to your videos? Still waiting! Don't quit, please.
Thanks for the message, Dave 😊 No quitting. I’m just shifting focus to my writing and creating videos for my other channels. I’ll still post here from time to time…in fact, I have 3 videos for this channel that I need to edit; I just need to find the time 😊
Cool! Can't wait 🙌🏽@@nikitisza
I saw this comment, and I was like no no no please don't quit. 😂 ❤
Thank you so much for sharing sketching techniques, I've been really struggling with this part of design process, and you helped a lot!!💛💛💛
It's so wonderful to hear that my video helped you! Wireframing can be tricky in the beginning, I understand. I’m glad the video found you 😊
Im so Interested on working in NZ or Australia. Can a Full stack developer with 2 years of experience get a job offer there?
Yes, you can! You need to start applying with your resume, portfolio, and cover letter! Good luck 😊
Zoltan is absolutely right in his advices 🎉 Especially on the topic that you should be also professional for your future self and training your habits. I loved his facial expression with some questions 😄
Oh and I would like to hear his explanation which was skipped forwards 😂
He diviated from the topic too much 😉
Zoltan has great advice, all the time. I’m lucky to have him around.
Amazing information Can you please make a video on how to create visuals for case study?
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. You can create visuals for case studies exactly the same way; just save the image and drop it in your presentation or website. What are you looking for exactly? What tools do you use for your case study?
Thank you so much for putting up this guide for us all. I am setting myself to move to NZ in next 4-5 months as a student. I am taking MUXD programme at the VUW. I currently have around 1.5 years of experience working as a UX/UI Designer. And I really want to do my part time job in a similar field while I study in NZ. Does NZ companies, design agency/ consultancies hire UX Designers for part-time work. And how to secure this kind of job. Thank you, I am both excited and nervous 😄😄
Consultancy, no. Agency, sometimes - depending on the demand. Other private companies or government agencies, yes. MUXD programme does offer industry experience, so your course coordinator should be able to help you with it 😊 Good luck with your move!
I have had all these reasons for burn out! But now I am good, got new project.!😊😊😊
Oh that's good to hear! Take care of yourself 😊
