Please don't promote the false dream that people can transition into the UX field with the help of a UX bootcamp. In the current job market, even people with master's degrees in UX-related fields are having a hard time landing a job, let alone bootcamp graduates. Don't sell the dream that you can become a product designer after taking a 3-4 month bootcamp. Those are all lies!
I did a bootcamp still can’t find a job wish I never did I’m still gonna try and not give up cuz eventually you will get something but it will take months of work and networking
i did a bootcamp dont have a bachelors degree it took me 6 months but I found a job at a pretty amazing company its very very hard but not impossible...time is gonna go by anyways so if you love it try it
These are some really good tips, thank you! I appreciate the honesty of the industry and what companies are looking for; that's really helpful. I'm super new to all of this and still figuring out the best path for me. I wanted to know your opinion on this: if I decide to go the self taught route, wouldn't I still be able to be in community, get to network with other designers, and get feedback by joining like LinkedIn or a Reddit group? Is it more beneficial to instead join a course? I assume I could even find a mentor without joining a course or bootcamp too. I am most likely gonna go the course route for the structure but was just curious what you thought. Have a blessed day!
Hi Charli For a job, how important is it for us to fully master Figma like perfecting Auto Layout and making pretty fancy prototypes? Or would you say it’s better to have a general understanding of how to use it/UI principles, and mostly just relying on existing components/the company’s design system.
what matters is your ability to be creative with solving problems, the tools matter but not as much as you think, they only help present solutions. focus on being a good communicator and a good problem solver, not just with regards to ux, but also with people, conflict management, etc.
As a UX/UI Designer in the field, I would say very. That's just one of the things everyone else applying for the job will likely be able to do, especially since you can learn it in a few hours

You have better luck with a bachelors but it’s a struggle and YOU DO NEED SKILL

Glad I’ve came across your channel, I’ve been a designer for four years and you’ve been really helpful!
Good listen, but the timing of the video and audio is alternating between sync and desync.
what course(s) did you take to learn the business standpoint of a product designer?
