I started designing around 2019, self start though i never thought this is going to be a real field designing screens but i landed here and eventually liked it.
I started as UI/UX designer in a service based company with a mere package of 2lakh. And then after I left that company had a package of 3.5lakh.
I joined a new company 2.5 years back in a product based company 5lakh and after i got appraisal salary hit 9lakh a year.
Even though i have this much experience i am still struggling in designing a good screen as compared to Software development where you can join a good company and you can get a salary above 15 lakh for sure. Product design is hard and to be in the industry you really have to wake up and start learning whatever you have to come up with whether learning Android, web, ios , design patterns, design system or so. If your company does it or not .
After applying and rejected to different companies i am now concluding that your experience doesn't matter in this field ofcourse experience in domains works.
Trust me if you get less money, your opportunities are less. It's you who will have a good opportunity if you have good knowledge and skills.
On the personal side, i am rejected by girls who don't even do jobs , earning less salary, and don't even think about high salary girls.
I just wanted to flush out and want to start with a fresh mind, sorry for bringing this up. I will start again. I do again
