Job Interviews & UX Challenges for Product Designers

Inès Mir

Don't miss your dream UX job

🫣 The UX job market is tougher than ever. Hence, we are not given many trials for job interviews.

We need to perform spotlessly in every interview to land the job.

But most product designers have been practising UX, but not interviews! 🤨

If you are getting job interview invites → your portfolio is enough. Stop polishing it.

☝️ The interview skills are your problem!

Learn to pass job interviews properly once and use it throughout your entire career.

----------------------------

Please note that the course will only repeat ONCE in 2025.

What you’ll learn

I interviewed 100+ UX design candidates for big tech to understand the patterns that lead to hiring. I will teach you them in 3(NEW!) weeks.

    Who this course is for

    • You get job interview invitations but can’t make it to the offer.

    • You never pass by the initial recruiters' interview and don’t understand why.

    • You are going to apply soon and don’t want to waste chances coming in your way.

    Prerequisites

    • Converting UX portfolio

      The program works best if you have already received interview invitations. If no one replies to you yet, work on your portfolio for now.

    • Her seniority and experience as a principal UX/UI designer really showed in her masterclasses / workshops / design critiques during this time.
