What you'll learn

Focus your energy on jobs you’re an ideal candidate for

Stand out to the hiring manager as a candidate who would be a perfect fit for the position.

Discover where your job search strategy is holding you back

Today’s UX market demands a different approach to applying for jobs than a few years ago. Have you adapted?

Apply to jobs in a way that gets noticed by hiring managers

Send the hiring manager a résumé and portfolio that demonstrate you would do a great job.

Why this topic matters

Sending hundreds of applications without hearing back is discouraging and doesn't bring you any closer to your next job. Today's job search requires a more selective strategy. When you focus on roles where you've genuinely done the critical work before, your experience becomes a stand-out signal that grabs a hiring manager's attention and leads to more interviews.
