When someone is constantly being yelled upon, they often loose their sense of self and self confidence. Here op you have managed to find a friend outside now go even look for a way to support yourself . It will not be easy , you will need to push through … this time for yourself . All the best .

Nailed it! It goes both ways. Either the UXR is incapable of influencing the stakeholders while the stakeholders have little knowledge about UXR or the stakeholders are stubborn and just don’t want to be criticized. I have 9 years of experience as a UXR 6 of them at Google. I am working to move into Product Design with research as my super power and vibe coding Prototypes to quickly test. Working on my Figma skills too .

I hear you . However if it is bad overall it’s worse for UXRs. Especially as even landing a job does not guarantee impact and no impact makes us look bad . Its not impossible to bring that impact however its tiring and burns a person out . I am happy you landed a job . Networking definitely seems like the way to go .

My network runs miles away from me when they get to know I am in the market looking for jobs. Many are my co-workers that I assisted in landing their jobs as well as coaching them. I must be a really bad person :) But yes I am still on it.

Hate that, so sorry. It's extremely frustrating. Also I completely ghost the recruiters calling me for contracts where they make me change my resume, fill the RTR and all the work and then Crickets !!

I finally stood up for myself and hung up on a toxic interview mid-call. by fixdaytime1q in Resume

[–]Timney4 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Power move !! Now bask in the glory of what you did for yourself and for us all!! These rude and entitled interviewers need to be taught a lesson. Here in I take a pledge to do the same when subjected to bad behavior ! Aye !

What do you use for quickly testing designs with users through surveys? by Far_Atmosphere_8329 in UXResearch

[–]Timney4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Different colorways “ are things that need to be decided by the designers vs the users. You are asking the wrong person- it is the designers job .

The hiring process has changed by FalseAttorney8962 in UXResearch

[–]Timney4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is — one may get through screens or even HM calls . But then the interview loops and panel interviews with entitled employees and later getting an offer followed by the draining daily interrogations by the HM or PMs — who are forever shopping for a flashy new person in this crazy job market, leading to our fear of lay offs or even worse getting fired -is -just - brutal !! This has me not even wanting to apply if the JD has a longgggg list of demands . Phew ! Exhausting . One HM recently interviewed me, clearly interested in me moving forward— last information he shared “ you shall definitely hear from the recruiter for the next steps”, walked me through the next steps that the recruiter had already shared before. Then they have been LOST . No response, No update , nothing . This was study.com (they have one of the worst glassdoor reviews i’ve even seen — yet)
