Who is this course for
01
NO-Portfolio designers
Stuck after your UX bootcamp? This course helps you build and launch a standout portfolio from scratch.
02
NO-Job designers
Tired of ghosting and polite rejections? Get unstuck and land your first real UX role with a portfolio that works.
03
Career switchers
Ready to leave your old job (or limbo) behind? Build a UX portfolio that proves you belong in the industry.
Prerequisites
You have 2+ UX projects
You’ll need at least two projects (bootcamp ones are fine) to shape into a portfolio—this is not a UX course from scratch.
You’re past UX 101
This program doesn’t teach UX basics—you already understand the UX process and want help showcasing your work.
You aim for in-house roles
This course is focused on landing in-house UX/product roles, not freelance or agency work.
What you’ll get out of this course
Build a UX portfolio that converts
You’ll walk away with a polished, strategic portfolio tailored to your job goals—no fluff, just what hiring managers want to see.
Reframe your past experience to benefit the UX career
We’ll show you how to position your background as a strength, and integrate it into your case studies so you stand out, not start over.
Polish your case studies with storytelling tools
Use practical prompts, templates, and AI tools to turn dry project writeups into compelling UX stories that recruiters will actually read.
Unlock advanced job search tactics
Go beyond job boards. Learn proven methods for getting referrals, networking, cold outreach, and making your portfolio seen.
Revamp your CV and cover letter
Make your applications stand out with guided tweaks, strategic positioning, and real examples from successful candidates.
Optimize your LinkedIn profile
Turn your LinkedIn into a recruiter magnet with an optimized profile, headline, and summary that align with your UX goals.
