Very nice video Tiffany. An advice to everyone. When applying for a job make sure that every single project in your portfolio has been copyrighted. It took me a little bit more than a year to find a job. I discovered later on though, after I reapplied for a job to an employer who rejected me in the past, that they had completely copied one of my projects and I was so pissed off because firstly they told me during my interview back then that my portfolio is OK and that I can get back to them after I have more experience because I have potentials in this field. As soon as I discovered that the copied my work I went to a lawyer but it was already late. So it took me almost 1.5 years to find a job in UX/UI and another year to realise that every project I make has to be copyrighted. So everyone be careful. It is very important to copyright every single project that you make.
Thank you very much for the advice.
How do you copyright your projects? I thought that copyright was automatically assumed whenever anyone creates something original--or do you actually have to apply for it?
So fun to watch, tiff! You did an incredible job editing 👏
Love this video, Tiffany!! So cool to learn how you got to where you’re at. Would love to see more videos on this topic!!
Thank you Julia!! Glad you enjoyed it and I will be posting more 🥰
Not only was I jammin' to the background music, but I really enjoyed this video!!! I'm very creative and love designing things so I think this would be a great career for me. I've been doing some research on "RUclips university" lmao on different careers because now that I'm 25, it's time to really figure out what I want to do as a career. Just stumbled upon your day in the life video!!! Thanks for this great information... :)
First of all, the quality of this video was top notch! Love the new set up! Also, I know this video will be so helpful for anyone who is searching for how to become a UX Designer! This educational type of content is so valuable! Keep it up Tiffany!
Thanks Katryna!! Tried really hard on this one and appreciate your attention to detail. Grateful for all the support ☺️
@@TiffanyBuiBasics How long did it take you to learn everything and create a portfolio?
Hi Tiffany! Your video is so inspiring because I just found out about this career. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos about it. Thank you :)
Networking? *My Introverted lizard brain shuts off*
I hate it too. Ugh. Being friendly with ppl you have little interest in being friends with. Lol.
Bro same😂😂
Can relate
Relatable 🤣
That's %100 me😢
I just discovered this field and I think I’m falling in love lol! It would be a dream to have you as a mentor!
Yes me too. Please guide us. We’ll be glad !
Is it a permanent job?. I mean while working in this field we need to keep a second job option for us?
ahh that's so nice of you! I'll see if I can create some mentorship program in the future :)
@@TiffanyBuiBasics best wishes!! 🕊
I want to. Join too
Thank you for sharing! I'm so excited to grow my skills stronger!✨🙏🏼👏🏼 You go Queen!
Beautiful and smart. I am going to love this channel! Thank you x
Nice Video!! you're so supportive! greetings from Lebanon ❤️🇱🇧
I've watched so many videos on UX Design as a career move and also which bootcamps to choose from. I would love it if you did a review on General Assembly's part time UX course. This video gave me the serious motivation I needed to take a good look at my current job and consider the same exact course. There are so many bootcamps but GA part time course looks appealing because of the price and flexibility.
Thank you, RUclips algo and Tiffany! I actually also started off with a science background as well (studied chemistry in Uni), but found later in life that I had different passions. I'm really thankful to find a video that gives me so much hope about this change in career path and really excited to get that started! Thank you so much again, Tiff!
that makes me so happy! you're welcome. Goodluck in your career path!
Such a great video, Tiffany! Thanks for sharing your experience. This is the video I’ve been looking for!

I loved it!! I’m an architect transitioning to ux design. Your video made me even more excited about this carrear 😍
Thank you!! how exciting. It's honestly the best career choice I ever did. Let me know if you have any questions :)
Can you speak more about this? I’m currently in architecture and don’t really know where to start to transition away
Heyy there, my story was soooo the same in getting into UX. Happy to have come across your video and to know about your experience! Tiffany
What is your salary in india?
Wow thanks for the inspiration
Love the video! Do you have any recommendations \ tips for building a portfolio?
Thank you for sharing your experience 😍
This video was so helpful ✨🤍
Thank you Tiffany!
Thank's for sharing Tiffany, salud desde Bandung. Hopefully, I can land my first project from online sources. I've been teaching myself graphic design especially for Vector for the last month.
Great video really helpful
You have inspired me great video
i´m seeing you as my future self,
currently, I am an electronic engineering student in Germany, and going through the same process that you went in the past before you started your current carrier.
thanks for the advice!
i hope your channel will help me a lot on my journey, also I would consider myself lucky if you decide to be my mentor, since we have similarities, I think I will be able to learn a lot from you.

Omg thank you for this, it was so helpful!! How did you build your portfolio? What website did you use for it?
Positive video, well done.
Same here. I ama core developer but have learned how to design UX out of interest for the field! Started by looking at the pro's designs on dribble and behance and then practiced and learned the strategies and basic rules. Still its a long way to go, had done some small projects for free just to learn but yeah I can see myself doing this as a job in future :)
Excellent
Hi Tiffany, I’m wondering if you did the part time GA course? If so, how beneficial did you find it in helping you learn and transition careers?
When you say it took you 3 months, do you mean 3 months after the GA bootcamp or while you were still taking it?
I'm in love with your sharing. This video really help me and boost my confident. May I know how you create your portfolio? If you don't mind to share 😊
Hey! Loved your video. Does it matter where you complete the purse from? I am currently pursuing the Google course on coursera. Thanks
hey triffany its been great to watch your video. What do you think about Google UX design Professional Certificate is it really worthful to get job or to get great skills in ux desinging. But as I think any certificate whatever it is google or like as you said general assembly they can just teach you all the basic and advanced knowledge. Next step its all depends on your portfolio how much it impress employer.
Please correct me If I am thinking in a wrong way.
Nowadays, would you say that many UX Design jobs have an option to work remotely, even if offices open up?
Hello! Which course did you take? Is it including how to build the portfolio?
Good motivation & explained became UX designer Tiffany Bui.
Such an awesome Career guidelines for non design background people 👌
Great video! Regarding your portfolio, do you have any recommendations on what to use for that? (existing portfolio sites or did you fully customize your own?)
thanks! I've been using squarespace, but a lot of designers also use other great website builders such as Wix, WordPress, Webflow, etc.
@@TiffanyBuiBasics ok good to know, thanks for the info!
Thank you for this, I have so many questions 😭
Could you share the link of your portfolio as well..or maybe just some samples ? It would be a great help
Bold the network! That's the important.
Do you have to memorize the prototypes or how do you come up with them, for example do designers look at other sites?
New subscriber! Do you mind sharing the mouse that you use for designing? I'm trying to get into a UX/product design job here in the Bay area since almost 2 years now with no luck :(. Please share any good networking groups if you haven't already. Thank you!
I have a question...since you switched jobs , you had to join as an entry level ux designer so the salary must have been reduced from your previous job, right?
Hi Tiffany, great video! I am very curious which website you are visiting in your video at 4:00 min. Could you please let me know? I think this is very nice to look at for some inspiration.
Hi!! I’m using a website called Dribbble to look at ux inspiration. Hope this helps!
Did it take 3 months to find a job after finishing the general assembly course? or the entire process from enrolling to find a job?
Hi Tiffany, could U plz tell me what App you are using to edit the document in the video at 3:54 ?
How did u prepare ur portfolio without having any experience / projects beforehand?
Hi!! Where can I find example Web design briefs/case studies to practice?
nice video! question: how did you build up your portfolio before landing a job? any advice for portfolio? thank you!
That depends on the on-hand experience. You could practice and implement freshly learnt skills on any small project. After a month that'd turn into your portfolio.
Simple,
Getting a job is - You are selling your idea / effort to a company. So Prepare for it by making some of those ideas in to your portfolio,
Best practice - Create a Dummy Brand, and put all the ideas to that dummy brand and create wireframe, sketch, prototype and everything.
Check with friends for reviews, Once you fells it's good to go, POst that on your portfolio.
@@layermaster22 That is basically the jist of things. I am going to do exactg same thing and just practice till i get good. People are expecting fast results when doing a career change like this takes time
How do you feel about the ux designer course on Google?
how long did it take to learn ux design ?
Do employers accept any degree? For example a Visual effects degree. Obviously I will have to learn this myself. I just want to know if a degree in any subject is acceptable.
What wireframing program is that that you used in the video?
I've been getting experience for 5 years now and still can't land a job. Although I am about to graduate undergrad.
how do you make a portfolio as a beginner?
Is any coding language needed !?I am zero in coding part but myself a computer science engineering graduate!?...Could u help me in this please Tif!
Do you need a touch screen laptop for ui/ux design career?
Can you please share your portfolio ? I mean resume or something like that
So that we can get a deeper understanding of what reality it !
Hellooo! Loved this video, i have one question, i have mostly experience in research, and design thinking workshops although i’m not very skilled in visual Design, usually i make wireframes, user flows, propose functionalities, structure, information that the user might be missing. That then a visual designer turns into beautiful interface .
Do i need to become an expert in visual Design to become UX Designer? Or is it ok to divide UX and UI Design?
Hi! Thanks for watching. I think it depends which company you’re applying to and what type of designer they’re looking for. Most companies I’ve seen look for a full stack designer that can do both, but there are some bigger companies that separate visual from UX research
@@TiffanyBuiBasics thank youuu for the response, yes, i guess to expand my options i need to expand my skills as well ☺️
Very interesting. . . I am a software tester. .. Manual tester. . . To become automation tester, learning code is very difficult. . .
Then I thought of UX designer. . . It's a skill. . And called as developer and high pay when compared to testing jobs.
Want to become the UX designer. .
Tiffany help me to become UX designer
Your is very very encouraging
@Apoorvaa Shanmugham yes
Hi Tiffany, Thanks for this video but its tough to get job in india as UI/UX designer compare to USA and other country.
Actually, I know nothing about ux design and I really want to learn. Where do I start from
Thanks,
I am a new be in this sector, and I have no friends here, would you please tell me how i get a ux job?
I'm just graduating from college with pharmaceutical science degree and I am looking to switch into UX/UI design. Thank you for your video!

Hi what do you think of the UX design certification by google?:)
