@@MalewiczHype Thank you as I am taking the foundation user experience course on Coursera , I also I am also having a training on UI design already to Balance up And I was like , am I doing the right thing but after watching this I feel happy more Thank you
These videos have definitely been helpful guidance with the Google course. I'm on path in doing all 7 courses in 2 months. I went to college for architecture and this is basically the same thing with a different product, so it has been nice just learning how to apply my past learning to this new career path.
Glad it was helpful! I'm publishing a huge video on best practices and avoiding mistakes in portfolios this Monday too, hope it'll be helpful as well :)
Finally a condensed video which I share can with people who ask about “what next” 😉 I too needed a refresher in this regard so always nice to have someone much more experienced guiding you with such helpful tips 🙂
Awesome to hear! Many people take it upon themselves to start a course in January, so with a typical slower pace they should be finishing just about now :)
Thank you for posting this! I'm 19 and trying to complete the certificate before starting university in the fall for a Creative Technology major. Only on Course 4 but your content is always so motivating and informative!
You got this! Just don't get too demotivated by segment 5 of the Google course, either try my UI courses or even my free tutorials on RUclips first. Segments 1-4 are solid with the right approach :)
My pleasure! I really think people should focus on UI more especially in this economy - many companies don't have the capacity to have UI designers as a separate role from UX so they're looking for 2in1 :)
Really enjoyed your video. I’m new to studying UX design and it’s a little overwhelming but I think I just found my new UX mentor to get me through this shit. Appreciate your delivery with this vid and bsing people and keeping it real. Gotta new subscriber 💪🏾
I'm Currently on the 6th course of the specialization and everything is going swimmingly, really appreciate this video since I'm at the ending stages and had unclear idea of what to do next. Keep up the great work ❤
Thanks! I linked a full playlist that has a video on each part of the Google course (including part 6 of course) with specific details on what to look for there.
You know what beginners are thinking and your videos are always helpful, I'm thankful that there is a channel like this, thank you for what you are doing!
Thank you! I hope to actually steer this channel into some other directions as well this year, not just UI/UX as there's enough of that out there already ;) My keyboard is the keychron K3, Mac version, red switches.
@@MalewiczHype First of all thank you for the answer! Yeah, I saw you made some other type of content other than just UI/UX and that was also interesting! I will start my webdesign journey in a few weeks and will purchase your e-books and consume as much of your content as possible. Keep up the good work!
No problem! Before you buy anything check out my free playlists for beginners and see whether that whole UX/UI thing is even for you - it's always best to test it out on free stuff first - then buy if you're convinced you like this industry (as it does have some downsides too)
This video is right on time! I've started sending resumes and cover letters, but no responses so far... Any tips on job application process? btw I'm from Warsaw ❤
Great to hear! As for sending resumes, always attach your portfolio and make sure it has those 3-5 projects in it. Warsaw is cool, I like it for short trips (mostly for the great food scene) but I couldn't live in Warsaw right now, I need the peace and quiet ;)
I'm on the 2nd course , almost at the end.... I'm not an expert.. But don't limit yourself just in this course ..Learn from other sources as well.. Freecodecamp etc...it will help you...
So I'm one of those people who started the course but never finished but still subscribed to several ux designers on RUclips Please be honest would you recommend a different approach to ux design or is the Google program a good foundation? Seeing that only 25k have graduated has made me want to sign back up because before I thought the market would be over saturated. Mostly it's my fear getting in my own way
To be brutally honest, if you finish just the first segment of the google course and do some extra UI work (my courses for example) chances are you'll get a job in UX/UI quite fast as it's more than enough to just get the foundations from Google. If you have more time or want to become a researcher definitely finish 1-4 of Google, and you can stop there, as segment 5 is not that great and 6+7 are just repeating 1-5.
I think I finished modules 1-3.. maybe 4 as well. I decided not to renew my subscription. I felt that I already knew everything from the course, and some of the UX methodologies are overrated in real projects. I learn much more from people like you or Mike Locke
Great to hear! 1-3 are where most of the knowledge is at anyway and good thing you didn't get to part 5 which I think is the least useful of them all ;)
I have bought both of your courses. The only issue I find is both are for mobile apps. But I want to design web apps as well. Are you coming up with any course for designing web apps(SAAS-based products)? Please let me know as I'm around 1 month away from starting to design. If you have the course then I'll just go and buy it and practice it as much as I can to make great UI for web apps and stand out in the market. Thanks :)
nice content, I feel it's rather repetitive since we've already heard those saying of 5 proects, a course won't automatically get you a job so on. also people will eventually realize that and were to actually experience it better as soon as it happens. you've put "professional" in quotation since you got some criticism adn I get that but didn't actually gave an equal to better alternative, right now there's none. when it comes to finding hi-tech positions
Hey, for a while now I think I'll stop doing course reviews as they take a very long time, but of course this may change eventually. I'll try to do high-level reviews though
I just finished my Google UX Course last week, I have a portfolio with 3 case studies but no real-world UX experience yet. And I did ask myself that question, NOW WHAT?! I also started applying for entry-level jobs and I haven't heard any good news as of writing. I know I have to keep learning and expand my knowledge but I am puzzled which e-book to purchase. Which one do you think can help me boost my portfolio and hopefully help me get a job? I appreciate you for making this valuable content and replying to almost every comment.
I wouldn't go with an ebook first, but I can say honestly (and not as an ad) that my courses (both bundles, but especially mobile app ui 1 and creating case studies from UI projects) have already helped a lot of people get the job - to many they filled the gaps necessary to go from "so so" to "good". But you can also practice following some UI tutorials on RUclips - just growing your skills :) Also, for some basic knowledge we have some free eBooks at hype4academy.gumroad.com too :)
@@MalewiczHype I got the bundle for creating a case study. Just a quick question, do you use a UI kit for the phone mockups? It looks really neat and clean.
Michał could you please advise on the "good" amount of case studies in a portfolio? I heard that it's not great if you have too many of them. I was wondering how many can I have to not go overboard? Also, do you think it's a good idea to mix case studies like: some research only+mobile app (end2end design process)+web design+maybe analysis of existing app and ideas on how to improve it with some examples of UI redesign? On one hand, I think as a Designer you want to be creative and stand out, show your way of thinking and some design skills so why limit yourself but... on there other hand maybe there is some "golden standard" for a portfolio (in ex. only end2end design processes) one should follow to seem more pro?
The golden standard is to have things that are most commonly looked for (apps and websites) and then something else to highlight that you're not stuck in the app/website mindset - but it's up to you how you do it exactly :) That's the beauty of it - that portfolios can be very different, some can be purely research (but always make a nice visual cover for it anyway) and some can be just a grid of UI shots :)
is there really a job opportunity after taking this course? And what other training would you recommend after finishing it to boost a career in UX and be attractive in a job demand?
Very detailed video, but I'm kind of confused in the part where you said we should put our works first before a bit of what we do. Can you explain how these would help out? Because I've seen alot of portfolio starting with what they do 🙂
Work first because it's what people evaluate you by - when they see good work they are then interested to read more about who you are and what else you can do.
@@MalewiczHype Oh wow, Can you point me out to any portfolio like that so I can see and iterate to design my own portfolio? It's really hard to picture a portfolio like that 😅, so I'd need some guidance or inspiration. Thank you
One last question that others may have as well. So if I do the Google program or another, will I'll be able to get a job without a college degree? Like realistically
College degree is not necessary for about 90% of design jobs. The course is actually not needed either, but some skills from it help. Your portfolio is what most companies evaluate you by, so you can be 100% self-taught and still get a job!
Does the certification mean anything when applying for a job? I have experience from UX/UI but I am self taught and would like some sort of theoretics to back me up. Been away from the industry for a few years, doing digital marketing and want to get back in…
You can start my courses at the same time and actually skip part 5 of the Google UX Course as it's also about UI but it's much lower quality than mine. Parts 1-4 are quite good though, and they don't interfere with UI learning - it's even better to get more practice in early :)
No, I just started learning Spanish a month ago. It'll take a while before I learn, but I'm doing great so far, can order food at a restaurant for example. It'll be useful as I'm moving to Spain soon :)
@@MalewiczHype Wow! That is incredible. I am practicing English because I am Latino and my English is average. You should maybe subtitle your courses to Spanish. Anyway, I still think I'll be doing some shopping there since I'm VERY interested in learning UX design, I'm currently a graphic designer (I work on social media and stuff)
If you're a graphics designer it will be easier for you to get into UI design for sure - a lot of skills overlap. My courses are done in a way where I only use simple language (english, but simple, no industry diffuclt words) to explain it as simply as possible :)
👋 I wish I had your videos and courses at the beginning of my career :) ...it would have saved me SO much time and energy. Each one of these vids is more and more detailed on exactly how to navigate thru the weeds in the industry - u see and fill the gaps that many ppl are experiencing in such a clear way. Such wonderful content to help expedite the evolution of a career path. 🍀✨🐉✨🍀 ~ 🙏 ~
I'm super happy to hear that! But to be honest I mostly listen to people who are in that junior position and ask them lots of questions, it's not that these are my insights coming from my own imagination - so I have to give credit to all the great people from our community :) As for the vids - I'm still learning how to do it, I feel like I'm almost there with the quality ;)
Ah, yes ... I know :) 😜 U r successfully listening and designing ur content around the gaps ppl r facing and discussing. Thx u 4 this-it is very helpful and topically focused.
Is it possible for me to become a UX designer without the UI part? I'm not really interested in designing interfaces, I'd rather work in research. What do you think?
There is a role called UX Researcher, then you're mostly doing research and you're not a designer / don't need any design skills for that. It's a bit toughter to get into because most companies prefer those who can do both design and research, but I know researchers that don't do any design and they're doing very well.
I have almost zero knowledge on front end development. Do I really need a programming language if I already could design a useful ergonomic beautiful UI ?
I work as a administrator for my local hospital and want to change careers to UX or UI design will this course help as I’m 40 years of age and want to switch to something I enjoy.
Hey! I'd say yes, but if you want to design UI then better switch to my RUclips tutorials and possibly my courses on that and use Google Course for the UX principles (segments 1-4) - age doesn't matter when you're good - and you get good with practice :)
Hi guys looking for a little help. I finished the course, have 4 projects on my portfolio and now as Malewicz said I'd like to focus more on the UI, and I'd like to learn more of either Illustrator or Photoshop. What do you gyus think? Which tool would be better?
@@MalewiczHype I'm from Bangladesh. Actually it is highly fascinating to the people of our country to work at one of the world's biggest tech giant google. Very few people from my country get chance to work at Google. You can say that I want to work at Google for social status and money, which I think everybody wants😅 I will be grateful to you if you advice me from your experience which is better, working at google or other companies or working as a freelancer. Thanks in advance!
I started 2 weeks ago and I'm actually on course 2, and I kinda feel like stuck due to lack of motivation but I think your video is getting me the extra strength I need right now. 🫶🏻😁 I applied for financial aid for all 7 courses, I applied for the first 2 courses and then the rest. Therefore, I really appreciate this opportunity and believe that I can complete all of them and get the best results from these courses, and also to build an attractive portfolio. Thank you for the valuable content you share. ❤
Czy biorąc udział w kursie trzeba wykupić abo na program Adobe xd i Figma? Czy może jest jakaś wersja darmowa tych programów dla uczestników? Czy ktoś kto ma tylko Windows może też się uczyć?
The google course was to me a very good introductory course. I had no idea what ux ui was... I just wanted a career change so I thought it could be good for me since I like web design... I finished the course and I realized ux is not for me, I am more interested in creating my own layouts and products, so after I finished it I started learning coding and I still use figma to design my own stuff, so I am glad I did it. I am still looking forward to learn more about design, which most developers don't care about...
Hi Sofia, so you're more of a UI / Front-end developer , that's also a really great combination with tons of potential - and from what I've noticed it's not as hostile as some hardcore UX people can get on social media - ui / developers are 99% very nice and welcoming - so good choice! Some developers do care about design, we started hiring developers at our design agency years ago by teaching them design and it allowed us to really grow and change the quality of the stuff we do :)

I work as a administrator for my local hospital and want to change careers to UX or UI design will this course help as I’m 40 years of age and want to switch to something I enjoy.
Hey! I'd say yes, but if you want to design UI then better switch to my RUclips tutorials and possibly my courses on that and use Google Course for the UX principles (segments 1-4) - age doesn't matter when you're good - and you get good with practice :)
Really great!! and when you said, "I believe in you" that's really inspiring me...
Thanks! I do because we have a great, hard working community here and I know you can accomplish great things :)
Are courses on Uxcel as good as those of Google? I am not for certificates, just want to learn something.
I haven't tried the ones on uxcel yet, I know some people think they're good.
Hi guys looking for a little help. I finished the course, have 4 projects on my portfolio and now as Malewicz said I'd like to focus more on the UI, and I'd like to learn more of either Illustrator or Photoshop. What do you gyus think? Which tool would be better?
Learn Figma, Sketch or Adobe XD instead of photoshop or illustrator :)
@@MalewiczHype I know figma and Adobe XD already :) I forgot to mention that... Thanks for the replay Malewicz :) I'll give sketch a go
Is it possible to do job in google as a UX Designer after completing these courses?
It is possible but highly unlikely. Also big companies are pausing hiring right now because of the recession. It does help to learn UX though.
@@MalewiczHype wow thanks for this quick reply!
So what should I do if I want a job as UX Designer at Google?
Why do you want to work at Google?
@@MalewiczHype I'm from Bangladesh. Actually it is highly fascinating to the people of our country to work at one of the world's biggest tech giant google. Very few people from my country get chance to work at Google. You can say that I want to work at Google for social status and money, which I think everybody wants😅
I will be grateful to you if you advice me from your experience which is better, working at google or other companies or working as a freelancer. Thanks in advance!
I started 2 weeks ago and I'm actually on course 2, and I kinda feel like stuck due to lack of motivation but I think your video is getting me the extra strength I need right now. 🫶🏻😁
I applied for financial aid for all 7 courses, I applied for the first 2 courses and then the rest. Therefore, I really appreciate this opportunity and believe that I can complete all of them and get the best results from these courses, and also to build an attractive portfolio.
Thank you for the valuable content you share. ❤
Czy biorąc udział w kursie trzeba wykupić abo na program Adobe xd i Figma? Czy może jest jakaś wersja darmowa tych programów dla uczestników? Czy ktoś kto ma tylko Windows może też się uczyć?
Figma ma wersje darmową.
Ux and vr
I want to talk a bit more about the UX of VR this year - definitely :)
Nice vid, thanks
Yo 🙌
@@MalewiczHype yo, I was almost late to watch Ur vid 🤭
Glad you made it then! :) Which tip do you think was the best one?
@@MalewiczHype exploring beyond mobile app or a website, and maybe giving a try to wearable os
loved the video but too much shameless plugging
The google course was to me a very good introductory course. I had no idea what ux ui was... I just wanted a career change so I thought it could be good for me since I like web design...
I finished the course and I realized ux is not for me, I am more interested in creating my own layouts and products, so after I finished it I started learning coding and I still use figma to design my own stuff, so I am glad I did it. I am still looking forward to learn more about design, which most developers don't care about...
Hi Sofia, so you're more of a UI / Front-end developer , that's also a really great combination with tons of potential - and from what I've noticed it's not as hostile as some hardcore UX people can get on social media - ui / developers are 99% very nice and welcoming - so good choice!
Some developers do care about design, we started hiring developers at our design agency years ago by teaching them design and it allowed us to really grow and change the quality of the stuff we do :)
Sounds like a Ux engineer
Which is what I want to be
Some points I agree on and some points naaahhhhh nope nope.
How did you read my mind ?
I’m psychic maybe ;)
