tech isn't rainbows and roses (sometimes the perks are a disguise to the ugliness that goes behind the scenes) but it's a promising career track where the value of your work increases when you put in the effort and time to grow your skillset. it gives you the opportunity and power to be part of the decision making process at companies. wish you the best in your transition :)

I used to be super depressed after College (graduated this May) and not knowing what to do with my CS degree. It was hard getting a job too because I just didn't care for software development.... but then I got a job in UI/UX Design with a startup and I LOVE it!!! I found that I'm definitely more creative and "artsy" than just full on math and logic based. I still have a long way to go in UX design, but seeing videos like these motivates me!!! I'm already starting to create my own portfolio site :)

I feel you, I am a coding ex student, UI/UX pro ---> designing and developing app for local companies. I don't have a portfolio cause I am only too young and don't even know how to start to get one because the companies I worked for don't want that I share their infos. So, I am stuck because to get a job position they ask me to have experience even for an internship, but I can't have experience if I can't demonstrate because the company was small and not in the sector of designing.

@starogre 3 года назад

@@chunbuns i thought it was interesting how you present to the different groups. at a startup i was stuck presenting to everyone at once, and eventually the meeting group got so interested/big that it was nearly impossible to give everyone the same type of info in the same way for me. finance, engineering, ceo, other design, marketing, and ops all in the same room together. it got a bit out of hand. having 1 on 1's with people instead may have worked better, since sometimes the designs catered to what the PM and CEO wanted but not anyone else. so it wasn't really relevant to them
