Meetup Conversation

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.

This week’s topic is “How to create a Portfolio”!

Good morning UXers, looking forward to our online meetup at 12 midday. See you there! 😊

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! 😊

Hi everyone,

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! :)

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
