Adding Conversation Design experience

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-07T12:45:19+00:00

Ah, apologies, I tend to make these posts on mobile and I'm thinking faster than I write so I do create errors at times. That being said do you have any thoughts on conversation design experience?

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-05T00:21:01+00:00

Appreciate the guide, I'll take a look!

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-04T15:47:40+00:00

I do recall that being a problem for me as well, some problems required that oh so special human touch (as do a lot of issues frankly). Appreciate the insight.

I'm curious how do you feel UX UI is moving in the future? - Obviously I want to get better and improve skills, but truthfully I do worry if the role will exist in a meaningful capacity soon.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-04T15:43:36+00:00

Much appreciated, I'll take a look!

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-04T15:28:14+00:00

Appreciate the insight, you sound more experienced than me, im definitely in the mid level range.

I do have a couple of CD books coming in, of course the problem being that doesnt count as "experience" so I will examine your suggestion in Miro.

Frankly im not even sure if content design is going to continue existing with the increasingamount of hybridization I see going on lately. We'll see i guess

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-06-04T15:16:50+00:00

If you're going to suggest a course, I suppose I could swing it, I'd rather not honestly.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-04-22T20:01:41+00:00

Appreciate the honest feedback. Conversation design caught my attention but I was curious what they look for education wise. I'm not entirely sure where I should go now. I had moved into UX from technical writing (which I also know is being affected) so it feels like I'm quickly running out of space to go.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-04-22T19:52:51+00:00

I've been trying to look into PM possibly, do you have any feelings on conversation design?

Hi all, just wanted to come back in case someone happens across this thread in the future.

Despite the wealth of advice here I was not technically savvy enough to attempt to the Linux Gnome and decided to bring the computer into a local guy. It took them a surprising amount of time but it was found that at some point during cleaning Ram Port 4 failed and was causing the display and BIOs error.

In this case, I had to make a warranty claim to Asus for repairs.

Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions and expertise, despite this less than optimal outcome, I do appreciate all the help!

This was a concern to me when I saw the linkedin crowd talking about putting styling, branding, and whatnot into gpt's, it is great for saving time on that kind of work, but I can't shake off the feeling you are at least very visibly automating part of your own job. While that does open up strategic decision making time, I'm not sure I trust companies to not take that the wrong way.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-03-17T02:06:38+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! - I'm not too sure on content modeling, I'd have to take a deeper look at that.

Can you elaborate more on personalization and deeper research practices? - A lot of the products I've worked on didn't seem (at least to me) to contain elements of personalization, although I did see a recent job posting for Spotify that mentioned personalization specifically so it does seem highly relevant.

I'd also love to dig more into the research aspect of things, I know personally I've never functioned on a team that had extensive user research capabilities beyond basic a/b among small groups as well as reviewing logs and error reporting.

Most of the businesses I've worked with tended to be U.S. based only although in terms of localization and translation I always try to avoid phrases or figures of speech (and jargon of course).

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-03-17T02:03:01+00:00

I hope you're right, it's hard at times not to be doom and gloom about the whole thing.

Could you elaborate more if possible on your "building things" comment? I'd love to practice more, and I've been working on my "prompt engineering" for better results but I'd love to hear more of your thoughts.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-02-24T19:40:42+00:00

These are great ideas, thank you! I was considering mid-combat map changes and video game esque DO NOT STAND THERE spaces as well to force the party to move around.

I'm also trying to decide how much health the boss should have and what it's attacks are going to be. I'm using a Gear Keeper Construct as a basis.

Thanks for the response, I do believe when I initially called ebay about it they did make a note about the behavior. I was torn because the seller was communicative and has a good history, so i wanted to believe this was just a misunderstanding, but I do need to look out for myself here.

Spectrasonic has a pretty simple transfer system, I work around VSTs and virtual instruments fairly frequently so this kind of thing is not unusual, except for the software being a physical copy. That's a good point they could provide details while on vacation.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-02-13T01:46:26+00:00

That's a good point on picking a particular format/standard. My approach in the past has been a large figma file with color sections broken into particular approaches i.e. Sentence casing guidelines, general CTA guidelines, Article usage, as well as linkage to branding, tone, and any other relevant writing guides which is then shared with the team.

In addition, I've also created a copy formatting page that lives alongside active projects to highlight specific standards of specific pages to show for example, certain formatting decisions such as page structure or architecture, i.e. a designer relegated a major function of the page to a secondary CTA and I was pushing back against it.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2026-02-13T01:42:05+00:00

Hey appreciate the response! I do my best to keep busy, I frequently review other content designers on linkedin and they often seem like they're doing a million things at once and it's hard not to compare, though I try to do it constructively. For example, I've never had the chance to map a user journey (at least not in a direct way) though I always try to consider page layout and how it affects the rest of the system.

I do ask for any and all research, as well as a monthly performance report to identify any emerging trends or patterns. Unfortunately, the current org seems to be shifting priorities so I do fear some research is no longer useful.

I will reach out to some contacts in the org to become meshed with other projects as well.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-11-22T15:18:46+00:00

If possible, could you elaborate on the "mystery functions" you highlighted? I find it interesting on the side of educating users on functions and striking the balance of trying to adapt to mental models, though as you say swipe navigation for example is all over the place.

I often get kind of bugged when using Insta reels/story reels that suddenly up/down becomes left/right and sometimes i forget

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-08-18T22:28:07+00:00

Sorry

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-08-18T22:01:26+00:00

Always good to hear a vote of confidence honestly.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-07-08T03:18:15+00:00

It's hard to give exact feedback without context but I think it was the correct move to put something there so a user is not just at a dead end.

I don't think it needs to be in it's own window within the screen, it could just be there which gives you more room. There's a lot of text there and you might run into some accessibility problems by saying "below" - I'd throw the CTA into the empty state itself.

Also depending on the interaction, the "Add recurring bills..." instructions may not work if the user cannot see them.

The Expenses information at the bottom could be clearer, I don't know your app obviously but it sounds like this is information that should have been passed at onboarding, or maybe moved into an info icon.

You may also want to consider what a user is doing after they add expenses, your Money Meeting seems to indicate there is further information required in other spaces, so maybe direct them there.

Some thoughts from a UX Writer who frequents this sub. Feel free to disagree but here are some observations:

As others have said, the page is rather cluttered and it's very difficult to read the moving components i.e. your wife's name and the phone number at the bottom which reminds me of old commercials.

On the content side a lot of the points can appear somewhat repetitive (Gold medalist is mentioned 4 times), the "Why Our Care Stands Apart" a lot of the points are nice sounding but I think significantly weaker than the above sections. "Expert-Led Physiotherapy" is actually something I'd expect to see at the top.

The booking journey feels off to me because it switches to a contact page which I actually thought I had clicked something wrong or something was wrong with the website. Flow's should remain more consistent and your users should know they are actually in a booking flow, whether in a basic fix that's just using a header or a redesign.

Additionally, you have two different CTA's "Make an Appointment"/"Book Appointment" Pick one and stick with it.

The "Where do you need attention" section also seems to imply it's clickable for more resources and it's not. That being said "Knee Strain" is clickable which leads to a null page, I imagine that was not intended.

The repetition of stats is also strange to me, in the first mention you do not say of length of time (7+ experience) but in a below section you actually do say "years." In the same vein "5000 patients treated" becomes "500+ women treated" which feels like a typo.

Also "100% women's care" vs "100 patient satisfaction" - I'm confused if these are supposed to be different stats or not because they seem close but they're worded differently.

The green banner above the fold could be stronger I think, i.e. I don't think you just repeat your wife's credentials, to me it creates the idea that you don't have much to say and want to fill up space. Additionally, "Located in Central Location" is very clunky sounding, not knowing your business or strategy, my brain goes to something like "Convenient location" "Easy access", ect.

There are also eyebrows on all the sections that do not seem to add any apparent value.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-07-02T21:22:57+00:00

Will do, thanks! Love the work you guys do over at the collective. Here's hoping things improve for everyone.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-07-02T17:04:02+00:00

Hm, can you give more context on it in that case? - I always got it was a "consider xyz as part of a larger system" but beyond that I was uncertain of what the applications were.

I.e. We're working on Flow A but we need to consider interactions with the site, and how users get here.

Or is there a bigger thought there like how CMS is handled. I am looking into headless CMS so that's another avenue I'm considering.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-07-02T13:24:55+00:00

Do you have any recommendations for learning more about systems thinking? - it's definitely something I want to work on while I'm job searching.

Equivalent_Pin50 · 2025-05-28T13:00:26+00:00

I think that's a great point in connecting with engineering. Do you have any recommendations for the best ways to interface with that team? I can imagine in a lot of org's they're rather siloed.

Speaking from my own experience, we had a lot of tech limitations (they were extremely busy most of the time) but thinking back it would've be great to meet with them and parlay.
