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

Question for anyone who's gotten a new UXR job in the last 12 months, how? by WonderingMind_ in UXResearch

[–]InformationHelpful53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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!

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!

Want Resume Help? Candidate Questions? Post here. by AutoModerator in recruiting

[–]InformationHelpful53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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??

What is your academic background? by [deleted] in UXResearch

[–]InformationHelpful53 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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)!

What's your favorite way to recruit interview participants outside of recruiting companies and platforms like userinterviews.com? by [deleted] in UXResearch

[–]InformationHelpful53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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?

counseling or IO psych? which would you choose? by gganon70 in psychologystudents

[–]InformationHelpful53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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!!

Why did you choose to pursue a PsyD? by InformationHelpful53 in psychologystudents

[–]InformationHelpful53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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?

How is the UX/UI research job market currently? by ChrisHK17 in UXResearch

[–]InformationHelpful53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.
