Get an awesome UX design job
Learn how to showcase your skills, create an awesome UX portfolio, master the job interviews and apply to the UX positions at the top companies with confidence.
Are you tired of pushing pixels?
Or is your design work simply not valued? You want to do meaningful UX work and solve real problems for users but your work isn’t really appreciated and it’s mostly judged by “how it looks”.
Nod your head if...
- Most people at your company think that design, including UX design, is about “making things look pretty”.
- Most of the time, you just do what your Product Manager asks you to do.
- You have little or no impact on what’s being worked on, your work is average, meaningless and boring.
- You tried to establish a user-centred approach to solving problems but nobody listened.
- You’ve tried applying to other UX positions but rarely get a reply or an interview.
- You don’t know how to write case studies for your portfolio and what to put in them.
- You don’t know how to find out if the company you’re interviewing with is a “good UX company”.
- When you do get an interview, you don’t know how to answer the questions and present yourself as a capable UXer.
It’s time for a better UX job
The problem is not in you, it’s in the company you work for. UX designers need to work in an environment where they’re encouraged and trusted to do what’s best for the users. These are the characteristics of “good UX jobs”:
High UX maturity

Companies with a high “UX maturity” understand the role of UX design and know that it’s fundamental to their growth. UX design is not just an afterthought, it’s at the core of everything the company does.

Strong & collaborative UX culture
UX designers are valued by their colleagues, everyone wants to collaborate and contribute towards improving the user experience, UX designers are at the core of the cross-functional teams.
Solving user problems

These companies don’t design solutions to increase their profits, they understand that designing solutions for real user problems leads to even greater profit increases on the long run.
This course is not just about creating your UX portfolio, it’ll help you get an awesome job where you’ll do the best work of your life.
The UX Buddy course helps you achieve that in 5 steps.

Look for signs of UX maturity & collaboration
Self-evaluate your skills to identify your strengths, learn how to identify the companies with a high UX maturity and job positions that match your skills and needs.

Write case studies that present you as a capable UXer
Learn what works and what doesn’t from real-life portfolio teardowns, use the UX Buddy templates and the STAR approach to create a portfolio full of content that UX managers look for.

Strike a perfect balance between the amount of content and aesthetics
You only get a few seconds of the recruiter’s attention. The goal here is to stand out as a competent UXer so that they’ll see the potential and an overlap in skills vs requirements. Done well, this will convince them to take a look at your portfolio, which will lead to interviews.

Be prepared, present yourself and your story, be memorable
Learn from the UX Buddy author’s experience as an interviewer and his mistakes and learnings as a candidate. Learn how to reply to questions with STAR answers, practice design tasks and whiteboard challenges, and learn what questions to ask to learn more about the company and whether it’s a “good UX company” or not.

You’re not alone in this
Job hunting is hard, demotivating and stressful so a lot of designers give up. The UX Buddy community (and the author of the course) will give you feedback on your portfolio, cover letter and resume, and support you to keep going when things will start to get tough.

You don't want to miss this course if you want to prepare for interviews
I got access to UX Buddy right when I was already in the middle of interviewing at various companies. It’s been a great help to prepare myself and build confidence — having a solid foundation of questions to be prepared for but also questions you might want to ask companies was the right help at the right time.

I’m not a native English speaker either, so I always use a very simple and plain form of English that anyone can understand. Besides, I’m always happy to help out if something isn’t clear.
