Awesome. As a 4th yr Hum grad (no where near as productive as your grad life), I spent 25-30% of my time reading, and researching best practices to leave HE. I find these very useful.
Very inspiring. I was under the impression that those UX courses like Google would be useful in developing model projects to show during the application process, but I’m down with reading too.
Hi Matt! This video was super helpful to me. I noticed you haven't posted in a while, but I was wondering how your transition is going? Any chance of an update video? Thank you for all the great information on your site.
Thank you! I got a new UX research position focusing on AI just recently. It's really interesting/great. Over the last year or so, I've been trying to spend less and less time editing videos/making content. After 3 years of working full time and making videos several times a week, video content started to feel less like a hobby and more like a job. Especially so when I was keen on making videos about UX research/design. It felt like I had no break from work on weekends. If that makes any sense. Hope you're well! And thank you!!!
@@UXmatt That is great news - congrats on your new position. I totally understand this - I had a RU-vid channel that I greatly enjoyed, but I started my doctoral program and decided it was all just too much to keep going at the same time. Maybe someday I'll go back to it? No matter what, thank you for your content! I'm reading the books you recommended. I'm thinking I may transition down the road into UX research/design as well from being a librarian. You have inspired me!
Thank you for making a video that compliments many of the other resources out there! Do you see these books/resources as things to lean on once in your first job, or do you think they're important to have under your belt during the initial job search?
To create memes or to locate them? If the latter, Reddit is great. If the former, I have a video on my channel somewhere about using a few different tools to make original memes/other content.
