Fast-track to UX: a 4-Week Figma Crash Course Pre-Sale Discount: forms.gle/vHth3TpEyYnzESHU7 So far you probably know that you need a "real world project" / "client project" to land a UIUX or product design role in a tech company. But how to your first UX design client project? Even though there's no right formula on this and I've said many times that "networking" is the best way - I decided to make a video and talk about how I landed my client projects to provide you more insights on how you might also do it.
Thanks to the moon for sharing these tips! I just recently finisbed Google's UX design course and I'm building my portfolio and resume. But since I know I'm gonna be rejected for jobs, I'm starting to redesign other people's websites and they love it! That's how I'm making connections. At least until my portfolio is ready. :D
Heya! That's so cool. I'm a beginner myself. It would be really great to connect and potentially grow together! Do you have a discord I could reach out to? Or anything else maybe?
@@ridamumtaz3915 Okay so it seems like YT doesn't let me share my accounts in comments 😬 My Instagram's account is in my channel's description, maybe we can connect there 🤔
Aliena! I signed up for that course! I'm approaching the end of a six month course into UX/UI and you always seem to post a video about things I'm pondering haha. You nailed it when you said personal project > client project > dream job. That's exactly how I'm looking at it. I just hope I'm able to successfully network with my hermit self 😂
Thank you so much for this Aliena I also believe in applying UX design beyond just UI/UX. I have an online service I offer to business owners and I recently wrote a case study on the experience the service brought to their businesses and how it made them feel. I am a huge fan of customer service and that is what UX is all about and I am really proud to be in this feed. I am yet to get to where I aim for but I know I will definitely. Love your videos.
*Hello mam, a very thankful pink heart emoji from India. I have almost watched 60% of videos in your channel and I am glad to find this channel, providing this kind of content. Actually myself Chirag, I am 19, not doing any 4 years degree college because I know it's not worth it all as I am much confident of my skills that it would help people in getting services from me.😉😂 and I have also got a pretty much graphic designing background as I am much familiar software called corel draw. But now you obviously know that AI swallowing many fields either it is labour work or creative work, so I was thinking to shift in UI UX field and it is not only because of AI transition but also I am too excited for this role. And yeah there will be many opportunities for this role that i will get an opportunity to serve the public. So I was considering to take the Google Ux certificate but I know it will not enough, I also have to do things outside of it liking working on UI portfolios, personal projects, internships and et cetera. So is it good to take google ux course? as I have read reviews that it much better for beginners in UX field but it would be very helpful if you provide me a mini roadmap to kick start my career in this field. And yeah sorry, I didn't know that the comment got this much of long.* and also I would like to praise myself 😅😂, the logo you can watch that has been put in my channel, was made by me!😙😃.
I'd suggest you to take the 1-5 courses of Google certs along with some Figma tutorials, do a personal project along with them and make your first portfolio. Then use networking skills and your first project to land a client project (it's fine if it's unpaid). Then put the client project in your portfolio and resume and use it to land a job (contractor is fine).
Great Tips as always!! I personally have a fear of saying "hey i can help you with your design" and then them saying "oh, i already have a designer, they did this project for me" 😭😭 It's so senseless but I don't want to be a client stealer lol
The term "Congo silent genocide" often refers to the ongoing humanitarian crisis and violence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), particularly in the eastern regions of the country. This crisis has been characterized by widespread human rights abuses, including killings, rape, displacement of populations, and other forms of violence perpetrated by various armed groups.
Hi aliena..... You are my inspiration to uiux..... I am a newbie.... Can you plzzz tell me how to brand ourself like we have to start uploading RU-vid videos or what.....? And congrats for your config invite.... Did you get that invite from branding as well?
Oh I would suggest to put your personal name and headshot. But you can add a separate company profile that represents your business, and then in the experience section say that you are working at your own agency 👍
