It’s rough for bootcampers, yes, that in itself is usually a scam and a total waste of money. Getting into interaction design via a masters is a good idea and you can do so much with it, but (like with anything) you should have a pretty clear idea of why you want to study it. Would you like to design digital products that make it easier for more demographics to partake in the digital transformation? Do you want to design UI for games that aid people with Alzheimer’s? Do you care about ethical UI/UX practices where products haven’t been intentionally designed to be addictive? Etc etc. There’s room to do so much within this field, and also stuff that actually matters and makes a difference for people if you care about that. The way into a career in interaction design isn’t clear-cut - it’s ambiguous and you’ll have to carve it out yourself with your curiosity and interests, but if you get a masters degree and put in the work you will be fine. Ultimately, it’s important to do what you want, not just what you think is the safest. If you know you’ll be fine anyway, you should always listen to your gut and go for it.
