Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

I don't think I have a future in India. In about 2 years, proposals for marriage will start coming for me and family members will start harassing me for it. Also, would like to find a partner (which is quite impossible here). I am a product designer and want to move out of this country as soon as the job market is stable.

How can I move to US/Western Europe apart from doing masters as a product designer? Do companies hire product designers from other countries? Or is it more easy as engineer?

Please don't troll here, I am already depressed all the time and can't handle it more

Anybody working in ux research field? How's the scope of the field?

Ux research

What's is the best way for a 3-4 year experienced graphic designer to get a UX design role in a good startup. Should courses be given a priority or 2 really good UX case studies are enough.

Product Designer

I've been given task of talking to few users every month, although i do it for the sake of showing it on paper, i don't find any real value out of it. 

It's an activity that just drains my time. 

I know what needs to be built, and have insights that hardly anyone in my org has. 

Do you really think it is that important?

Do you believe in user feedback?

Anyone likes to share their knowledge? how to enhance my skills more in UI/UX to get more opportunities or to crack the interviews?

Senior UI/UX Designer

Context- I’m 30 YO. Have 4.5 years of overall experience and 3.5 years in User Experience Design. Ive got a background in physical product design & I landed in UX due to non availability of 3D projects in TCS.

My leaning in UX since 3.5 years has been hands-on.
I’ve worked for a client for almost 3.5 years as a user experience designer. I used to work in silo 95% of the time and hence didn’t know the right YX methodology to use during the UX research process, didn’t know the rights questions that I need to ask to both the stakeholders and users as I didn’t educate myself through any online courses regarding the same. Before I graduated, I was told be a few friends that ‘UX is doable and it’s very easy up learn. If you can pursue physical product design, you can easily do UX.

Fast forward 4 years, I’m compiling all the work I’ve done for the client and I’ve realised a lot of loopholes and lack of depth both in the design process and in the designs. Neither I asked the right questions during the User interview nor my design fully solves the user’s problems completely. I have to add these 2 projects I d worked for the client as I need to showcase real world projects in my portfolio.

I want to switch not just due to bad pay. I want to switch for better exposure, for growth and to learn to work in a team.

I can’t go to the client and gain more clarity on the needs and requirements of the project as I no longer work with them.

I will re-educate myself regarding the user research methodologies, best UX practices , UI design principles etc.

But how do I showcase these projects which are flawed and has a lot of loopholes?

Late realisation regarding projects I’ve worked on for the client . I feel I’m screwed . How do I get out of this situation ?

So there are bunch of hirings in every org of which you have no effin idea what they do and why do they exist! Let’s start - UI/UX researcher

UX Researchers help in clarifying whether the Product manager was actually retarded or not in building features that he/she thinks are helpful for the users but in fact was only building it to pump up vanity metrics.

I want to switch my career to design and have been doing a course on UX in  coursera . What else do I need in my portfolio to get a job in design ?

Skills needed to start a career in UX

I attended his portfolio cracking session yesterday. He took a dig at Growth School’s program. The walkthrough of his mentee’s portfolio wasn’t a conventional one. It looked like the UX process was explained in detail. Although his agenda was to find mentees for his mentorship program, I wonder if it’s worth joining his cohort.
I struggle with the UX process as I did it get to enough user study ans follow a process when it comes to design. I am kind of stuck between learning this by myself or join a mentorship program. I have an experience of 3.5 years in UX and I sometimes feel mentorship is too late for men.

Finance Operations

Wanted to understand what kind of setup do you all have to create a prototype with UX? 

Do you have dedicated UX researchers? Do you involve UX designers in the call with client ? Do you try to cover all the cases in the figma as no one reads the PRD ? Do you try to keep true data in figma because if 5 people are reviewing, 2 will focus on data and provide comments. Etc.
