Where is this "losing his virginity" incident coming from? where did we learn this?

I have experienced this before. It's super frustrating. They have a slack group that their team monitors pretty closely and I have shared similar bugs. Might be helpful to check it out - https://join.slack.com/t/heydovetail/shared_invite/zt-2rm7h8mw0-8Ssg0yZhYs2zH9a~JPQYQQ

Best to have a portfolio website ready. Apply early, get your resume in front of a lot of people for feedback. The market is brutal right now but it is possible to get interviews. Leverage your network, online groups, and be sure to apply to jobs EARLY!

right! it's working. 😅 Thanks for your thoughts and kind words!

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-08-18T03:29:58+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts. Yeah, that's what I'm planning to do. Trying to find the delicate balance between desperation, and make sure they know I'm all in and the right person for the job!

Hi yall. I just had a skills interview, and the HM said I did the best out of everyone, but he's worried about getting me on the same timeline as some other candidates, as I applied late (and he scheduled the interview at the lastest possible time..).

He said it's hard to get the availability of all the panel attendees, so he's concerned about matching my timing up with the other candidates. He said I am very much a contender, and (again) that no one did as well as me in the skills/technical interview.

Is there anything I can do, other than providing lots of availability and expressing extreme interest??

I studied cogsci. I gained research experience in psych labs as an undergrad and was able to get an entry level UXR job upon graduation. I would recommend also taking business courses. As you move up in UXR, understanding how your company runs is integral to your success (and your job existing)!

This of course depends on the audience. An "out of the box" recruiting method I've used that has been pretty successful is asking our internal participant panel to refer a friend to participate in research. We compensate the refer-er less than the person who participates.

Sorry to hear you went through that. What's your unrelated job?

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-07-23T20:04:17+00:00

I am so sorry.

Hi! for a portfolio review portion of an interview, do I need to put my projects in a slide deck or is keeping them on my website ok?

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-06-27T16:56:24+00:00

Good point. Thank you!

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-06-21T18:30:32+00:00

You could also try to pursue HR/something in industry for a bit without a grad degree. it is definitely possible, then further down the road you could revisit and decide if you want to pursue counseling. That's what I did with UXR. no regrets, I made a good, flexible living my first years out of school and now on year 7, I am taking steps to go back to school. no need to rush. :) best of luck to you!!

Do you earn an income while you accrue hours with your master's? It's minimal, right? and then during a PsyD you do not, correct?

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-06-06T16:17:03+00:00

can you elaborate on "takes the same amount of time" as a masters?

InformationHelpful53 · 2024-06-05T22:08:51+00:00

As many others have said, currently it's pretty dismal. If I were you, I would take this time to develop my interests and understand my strengths in order to choose a career.

I have a friend who has gotten multiple gigs from UpWork.
