Great video. Btw I like the coincidence of your name's first character and XDesign together going "UX"Design and that's what eventually you'd be talking about here :)
Very well put Ujjwal Kumar! You totally spoke my heart out on the kind of people that you would love to work with, especially when they are getting started! Loved your points on having the basic ability to design, have minimum knowledge of design elements, some knowledge in using material's component libraries, and yes being on very quick on learning and using the tool in a very organic way - At least upto the level where you quickly understand the ways of the team and learn with enthu!
Wow, Thank you, this video couldn't have come at a better time! I was just about to start creating my UX portfolio and I can already tell that it's going to be so helpful. Thank you for sharing such valuable content.
And here I m, this is the first video I came across of yours and which made me come across 2nd and made me comment and subscribe. Now, that I have taken notes of this video and finished it, I can say with full confidence, how valuable and clarifying this video was, I was so confused as to what skills I need to have as a beginner and this clears up most of them, not to mention it made me way more confident in my design skills like, wow. I would say a lot of credit of that goes to the manner of how you speak, very kind, very comforting, and honestly I had the misconception that experienced people are scary, glad I was wrong. Anyway, I look forward to your future content and learning from the videos you'll post in days to come. Thank you for this video and confidence through it Kind regards, A beginner designer
@@ujjwalxdesign Don't mention it, only wrote what I felt. p.s: I don't usually do this, but I felt so drawn with respect and kindness, that I actually ended up researching Spinny, because I thought how wonderful it would be to work you and your team when energy is this, since I'm a beginner doubt I'd be much use, but maybe I'll get and internship, if not, I hope I get to work with you or on your team someday :) Until then, I shall learn from distance :D thanks again for such good content. I got nothing but respect and best wishes for you, :) see you in next comment section.
Thank you for sharing this. I just started my UI/UX design career and I was really lost with my portfolio on what information to add. Hoping for more content for beginners like us. Cheers.
Great content for any designer who is starting out and even who is already working as designer. I just followed you on instagram and hope to talk to you soon.
Finally came to know there are a lot of red flags in my portfolio😅😅. I was very confuesd with my portfolio and this video came up in suggestion. Thanks a lot!!
Thank you so much for creating this video ! I am currently self- Learning UX design and working on my First Project. This is hands down the most helpful and Practical video i have come across and am looking forward for more such Valuable Insights ! 🤩
Great Insight, Visual UI design skills are under-rated. You can understand the UX part in few weeks at an organization but Design skills has to be practiced day after day for many months/years in order to be good at it.
Great Insights Ujjwal, as an Intern within a same space like spinny, I could relate this so much, also loved the spinny design, everyday there's something new to learn from u guys. Keep posting more videos.
Thank you for sharing these excellent points. Could you also please share insights about the finalized portfolios? They would provide valuable guidance for improvement.
They can help you eliminate common mistakes that we may make as designers. When you are starting out it’s always good to have design principles and even some strong UI guidelines (you can choose any design system out there) to help you create and finish projects.
Entry level candidates should focus more on research than anything else. Not in their folio but in their practice. This is because it teaches designers how to make informed decisions. The rest of what he mentioned as far as visual design and figma is quite honestly completely irrelevant to your ability to create business value. We can teach you auto layout or throw a tutorial at you over the weekend. Bur we can’t teach someone the ability to take calculated risks or compromise time or features and drive collaboration by connecting the right stakeholders to overcome an impossible pitfall or failure…over a weekend. So no. As a hiring manager I could care less about your auto layout skills. I care a lot about how hungry you are to serve the user and what lengths you have gone to in order to at least envision what that approach to getting there would be for you.
Hey thanks for putting across your view point. Here is my take on it: you wouldn’t expect an entry level designer to have the ability to take calculated risk, prioritise features, etc. That’s something you learn with experience. You can not learn to work on a live product straight out of college. So at least the basics should be clear, if I have an option I would select a portfolio basis the points I mentioned in the video. But hey that’s just the criteria for portfolio selection, you do get grilled on your design thinking in interview rounds. Anyway, it’s better when I know who I am speaking with to address properly, so hey maskedvillianai could you help introduce yourself? :)
So why are you hiring intern just hire a experience person because intern means that they are in learning phase and they want time to get experience. now days every company know we get a intern that will work like a experience person we pay him less other than experience person. and due to high population people will work like a slave and if they don't the next person will do. please just change this you are a experience person and give time to interns and freshers. just think about what will happen when you started your career now. please stop this.
Hey, I did not make this video to discourage a young designer starting their career. I am seeing a lot of effort is being put in by folks who are just starting out in so many different directions. My intent was just to streamline that into things that matter during a hiring process. I am someone who has taken huge pride in creating the most positive atmosphere within the team that I work in, so no, none of my designers work like slave. Not interns for sure!
The answer is. Write your case study as if you’re telling one of your friends about the project in 5 min. You’d get something quite different than what we usually have. You’d be talking about things that you actually got excited about. You’d describe things as if they don’t know everything about the product. Or anything. You’d get to the fuggn point. You’d explain why, how, not just what. And you def wouldn’t be pulling out some template whilst in the middle of a conversation. Because my god, just stop with the case study formats. The rest is honestly BS, no one cares. We want to know you
Please Keep uploading videos!!! Learning new things from your videos Sir

Great insight ujjwal, this will surely help applicants to narrow down where to focus as an entry level designer.
Glad you found it helpful.
This is so true and good, it gives me a new perspective as an entry level in uxui field .. Thank you so much ujjwal sir ...

Glad you like it. I plan on going over some portfolios that I like in future on this channel. Stay tuned!
Thank you for sharing the valuable information, and as a beginner, how important are the HCI Guidelines?
They can help you eliminate common mistakes that we may make as designers. When you are starting out it’s always good to have design principles and even some strong UI guidelines (you can choose any design system out there) to help you create and finish projects.

The answer is. Write your case study as if you’re telling one of your friends about the project in 5 min.
You’d get something quite different than what we usually have. You’d be talking about things that you actually got excited about. You’d describe things as if they don’t know everything about the product. Or anything. You’d get to the fuggn point. You’d explain why, how, not just what.
