Description

Episode 34 Show Notes:   How the hell do you land a Product (UI/UX) Design job during a pandemic? Are you looking for a job, or plan to soon? This episode is for you.    We are in the middle of a pandemic, so you must be wondering how I will get a job when the economy is down. Here's the real truth: companies are still hiring, and some companies laid people off. I can only speak about the American economy when I say the pattern of how this works.    Tech jobs will only go up from here because there will always be companies looking to create a product that will solve a problem for people. There are still plenty of jobs available right now, but the commonality with most people applying is they don't do anything to stand out.    Most people don't do what I go over in this episode. If you want to stand out while applying for a job, grab your earbuds, and listen to this latest UI Narrative podcast episode.   Mentions:   Portfolio Inspiration https://www.bestfolios.com/casestudy   Portfolio CMS https://www.squarespace.com/ https://www.wix.com/ https://www.behance.net/ https://webflow.com/ https://portfolio.adobe.com/ https://wordpress.com/ https://www.weebly.com/   Resume Templates https://www.etsy.com/search?q=resume+template https://creativemarket.com/search?q=resume+template   Resume Inspiration https://www.casestudy.club/journal/ux-designer-resume         Job boards https://www.uxresearchjobs.com https://www.uxjobsboard.com   Design Challenge Episode https://www.uinarrative.com/podcast-posts/episode21   Interview Questions https://www.springboard.com/blog/ux-design-interview-questions/   Help with Portfolio, Resume, Interviews, Getting Started in UI/UX Design https://www.uinarrative.com/workwithme Podcast Info:   Transcripts available on episode web page.   Listen on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher, and Spotify.   RSS feed: https://uinarrative.libsyn.com/rss   Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a review if you like what you hear.
