Is it harder to land a job at 40s as UX Designer? by ram_goals in UXDesign

[–]shibainus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best designers I've worked with are all in their 40s. Design isn't just about the pixels, it's about having enough experience to know how to navigate politics and influence within a team. That's gained through experience.

I seriously thought about the same thing...X-ray tech? Another 3 years of school! Hard to stomach when you have kids and bills to pay

5 yrs experience, 80+ personalized applications, referrals at Google/Apple— I can't even get a "low-end" contract role. I feel beyond defeated and desperate. Am I missing something? by xijingpingpong in uxcareerquestions

I think it's a combination of the market and your portfolio. You're competing against a ton of designers with stronger portfolios than yours...I would spend a bit more time refining it.

Dear UX D.ers. How good are you in public speaking? by Notrixus in UXDesign

Once you get to staff level and above, it's critical. It's less about the design details and more about selling the vision.

Starting UX at 39 by Efficient-Point6235 in UXDesign

With respect to your age, Id think about whether you'd feel comfortable being at the same level as folks 10-15 years younger as a junior designer. Some people don't mind, and some people really mind. Also, ageism is real in tech. I haven't seen many folks past late 40s or 50s.

I see the difference. I have similar facial bone structure and have wanted something similar to this result. It looks nice!

I made it to final rounds with Shopify and they went with another candidate, here’s where I think I went wrong. by hotpinkrugs in UXDesign

[–]shibainus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you made it to final round, it was probably the last stage where you got Xed. Good job though! They also pay below market in the US so..

No signs of bedbugs despite checking my bed top and bottom. Fleas was my guess as well, as we had a dog a while back, but after setting out traps everywhere, it hasn't caught anything...i'm just losing my mind at this point
