Including metrics in your resume or UX portfolio does NOT just have to focus on the final outcome. Metrics can also quantify WHAT you did. For example, if you did UX Research, how many interviews, how long was each interview etc? For a Design System, how many components etc were in it? #ux

Do not ever do this under any circumstances. You will be held to the actual contract, not the AI summary, and the AI summary has no way of knowing which terms you might personally care about or have questions about. Dooooo notttttt dooooo thissssss.

I'm obsessed with the UX of Peloton🏃‍♀️ 🚴‍♀️ ... but not the UX of the bike interface, app etc. I share more about how Peloton inspired me when I designed the UX of my UX community and job search accelerator, Career Strategy Lab. I share more in this podcast episode: youtu.be/7yQ58lv8g-c #ux

One of the most underrated skills you can build is to ADVOCATE for yourself. Whether it’s: – Dealing with doctors – Navigating legal situations – Asking for a raise – Setting boundaries in relationships If you can’t stand up for yourself, don’t expect others to do it for you.

Burnout is not a badge of honor. Every now and then I see posts from authors, UXers, entrepreneurs, etc who share all the ways they've burnt on their quest to: - Get the book published - Build the business - Advance their career If success requires burnout, then is it really a success? #ux

Your UX job search isn’t a numbers game. It’s a strategy game. And most UX candidates are playing the wrong one. #ux

UX, or whatever we’re calling it, is not dead. And no, I haven’t read the paywalled Fast Company article yet … gonna work on that tomorrow.

Free UX idea for Zoom ... add a "search" feature to the chat during a meeting. I was in a Zoom meeting today, and someone tried to find a way to search the chat. And, as far as we can tell, this feature doesn't exist. #ux #uxdesign
