Description: I recently started my dream job in the UX field - despite Covid, strict lockdown, no UX degree, no big portfolio and having not a lot of experience. In this video I'm telling you how it happened and give my best tips and advice on where to get started if you're thinking about the career as a User Experience Designer. I never explain in the video what a UX design actually is so here is a quick recap: "User experience (UX) design is the process design teams use to create products that provide meaningful and relevant experiences to users. This involves the design of the entire process of acquiring and integrating the product, including aspects of branding, design, usability and function."interaction-design.org/literature/topics/ux-design "User experience (UX) designers are involved in the design of digital products and services, such as websites and mobile apps, for specific target groups and end users. The purpose of your role is to ensure that the 'user experience' for individuals using websites or applications is as efficient and pleasurable as possible." prospects.ac.uk/job-profiles/ux-designer ❤ FAQ Where are you from? - I’m from Poland but I’m also British.
