We have so many product design role names that it’s confusing not only to non-designers but also to the designers themselves 😅 - Product Designer - UX/UI Designer - UX Designer - UI Designer - Product Experience Designer - Interaction Designer - Service Designer - Interface Designer - Web designer - … Some of these roles are getting separated because of the skillset required. For example, UX and UI. But some of them are just different names for the same thing. So what can we do with all this? These are just names. We should focus more on the responsibilities and what we can do for our customers and business. I think this naming issue was driven by the super fast growth of the Tech industry in the previous decade, and now things are going slower and more consciously. All these redundancies across different companies, hiring freezes, fewer design roles, and the boost of AI are all signals of transformation. Once again, don’t think a lot about the names, focus on the impact you can deliver 🚀 #uxui #productdesign #futureofdesign

People seem to be confused what a Digital Product Designer is and does: A Product Designer has strong UX and UI skills but the important definition is that they are strategic in the market and balance business and user needs. A Product Design job demands far more skills than just UI design (and these skills take time). Think more **Product Entrepreneur** - and often being across multiple products at the same time. I explain the roles UX, UI, Product Designer and the differences in some detail here - https://lnkd.in/eTAmX6K7 A good example of this is my work as Lead Designer @ terralistens - I work on the native app, the e-commerce website (with blog and SEO) and the web app whilst helping to make platform decisions and manage dev tasks. Product Design is a crucial role which is supported by Marketing, Sales & Upper Management (Pitch decks, funding), Development, and in some cases Manufacturing of physical products too.

Genuine question and probably aimed at recruiters at the moment. Does "Product Designer" actually mean UI Designer? I mean the job title asks for so many things what are what a : • UX Researcher • UX Designer does But the actual output or most of the focus seems to be on UI. Is this the case? Am I being fair? Is it also just worth applying anyway because a Product Designer role is often a "dream" or "wish-list," and actually what is needed is more someone focussed on the UX side of things? #ProductDesign, #UIDesign, #UXDesign, #UserExperience, #UXResearch, #DesignRoles, #JobTitles, #DesignCommunity, #CareerInsights, #Recruitment, #DesignJobs, #DesignThinking, #ProductDevelopment, #CareerQuestions, #DesignDebate, #JobSearch, #TechIndustry, #DesignCareer, #DesignersDiscussion, #UXvsUI

Over 900+ responses 😱 😡 Some people will look at this post and see "great another 900 people competing for jobs" vs 😇 These are 900+ people to learn from one another. As someone transitioning, you are constantly told "Look at other portfolios". I have gone to look for different websites with portfolios with broken links and everything else. Instead of going to a specific website to look, I am going to review some of these professional portfolios. As a community, we should do more post like this to get information of other peoples talent, and also provide assist one another to grow. 🎇🎇🎇

Someone in my circle might genuinely be interested in this, but it won’t make Ben’s Senior, Remote, UX Research Jobs List (someone please suggest a pithier name!), for three reasons: ⭐️ Mixed Design/Research roles are not UX Research Roles ⭐️ Very few people (relatively) can do either (UX Design, UX Research) with a high level of skill; doing both exceptionally well requires many years of experience, and this role doesn’t seem to be seeking someone with a 10+ years under their belt. ⭐️ Companies that combine these roles are not correctly prioritizing generative research; so you’re likely being asked to design a thing based on “business requirements”, and then *maybe* you get a couple of days to run an evaluative research project with 5 users, if you can find a way to do it for free. So apply and take this job with care, and open eyes!

Your product's success mainly depends on how the audience perceives it 💯   Yes, functionality plays a significant role, too. But you should never overlook its design, navigation logic, and architecture. But don't take my words for granted. According to analysts from Business Research Insights, the UI design market will reach $6.38 billion by 2031. If Fortune Business Insights experts are right, the UX design service industry will be estimated at over $32.95 billion by 2030 😯 The market size is growing, which means so does the demand for design services. Today, I'll show you how to properly hire a UI/UX designer and optimize the costs associated with product design 👇 #uiux #uiuxdesign #hiring #designerhiring #hiringtips
