School of Information BSI students were tasked with helping the developers of BackPac, a mobile volunteer recruitment application, design a better tool to meet volunteer coordinators needs.

The project was part of the BSI capstone class, which consists of two semesters of research and design work for corporations and non-profit organizations looking to solve information problems.

In this episode, I'm in conversation with Minjun Chen, UX Designer at Amazon. Minjun dives into the depths of her initial job interview journey, challenges, and job applications. Check out some great tips Minjun shares about online portfolios (follow timestamp below).

Part 2: youtu.be/NVCUfYW62IA

UX can be a great job, until it becomes horrible. It's definitely not for everyone and it's not even about learning Figma, or the Design Thinking process. Is 2022 a good year to become a UX designer? Yes and No.
In this video we're going to look at the reasons NOT to become a UX designer this year - and I'll break down four of them for you - with the most important being last.

If you're a junior UX designer and you want to learn and grow, make sure you're ready for everything that this job entails.

At: FOSDEM 2017

I've been running a local meet-up centered around designing for FOSS and doingit thoroughly, choosing MuseScore as our first project. The meet-up hasattracted people inexperienced with both UX design and scorewriting and it'sbeen a good learning experience.

I'll talk about my experience with running a local meet-up, where we worked ondesigning MuseScore, an open-source scorewriting program, with a group ofvolunteers that had little to no prior experience with both the UX designprocess and with scorewriting. The design process we're going through isrigorous, including stakeholder and user research, persona creation,scenarios, and the like.

Room: AW1.121
Scheduled start: 2017-02-05 14:30:00

The kickoff meeting for any UX research or design project is usually known as a stakeholder’s brief.

hellooo lo! In this video, I'm sharing my resume that helped me land my first ux design role! This was very much a hybrid resume for a me who was one foot in software development and another in ux design. I was very indecisive. But I'm glad my choices led me to UX.

I'll be going over what I wrote for experience, education, skills, and professional development. Though it was two pages, there was actually quite a lot I omitted so I'll be sharing why I kept certain roles and experiences in.

Hope you enjoy this video ♡
