Hi all! Please use this discussion thread to discuss Weekly Online Meetup - Sydney & Global held on Feb 26, 2024.
Feel free to ask questions about the place, date and time, agenda of the meeting, or anything else.
It was lovely meeting you all and sharing insights on building a UX portfolio.
As promised, sharing some resources below:
Podcasts
Design Life by Charli Prangley & Femke Van Schoonhoven - anything and everything about UX/Visual Design
Deep Dives by Ridd - interviews of design leaders sharing insights on all sorts of topics about design
I was also listening to this episode from Honest UX Talks podcast about building a UX design portfolio and it had same great insights regarding Website vs PDF folios.
YouTube Channels
Mizko - teaches the ins and outs of UX design from how to use Figma to presenting Case Studies
Femke - shares a lot of insights on Product Design, Strategies as well as Portfolio Presentations
I hope these will be helpful. Have a great week! :)
Thank you to those that joined the online meetup today. Always lovely to meet such interesting people.
Another idea that I forgot to mention that could get our “foot-in-the-door” in getting a job is INTERNSHIPS. Don’t be afraid to consider doing them. Sure they’re unpaid but if you’ve got the skills and can bring further value in a team -you’ll be undeniable being involved in the next project that is paid. :)
Of course, we’ll be having another weekly online meetup. Please, let me know what you’d like to chat about. See you there and have a great Monday-talk soon! 😊 Mark
