Lee,
A very great book and a must-read for beginners who want to enter and have questions on how to get into this field。I bought an e-book version of this book and maybe because it’s an early version so it has a typo and some links aren’t be able to access, but overall, great content still!
Nikola,
This book is everything we (entry-level UXers) need。 Every question I've had or might have had about the job-getting process is answered。 Each step of the journey is covered in just enough detail。 It provides learning resources, recommends books, and serves as a fantastic guide to come back to often。 I also strongly believe that UX designers of any level can benefit from this book, not just beginners。 Vy Alechnavicius surely made a lot of lives much easier with this write。 This book is everything we (entry-level UXers) need。 Every question I've had or might have had about the job-getting process is answered。 Each step of the journey is covered in just enough detail。 It provides learning resources, recommends books, and serves as a fantastic guide to come back to often。 I also strongly believe that UX designers of any level can benefit from this book, not just beginners。 Vy Alechnavicius surely made a lot of lives much easier with this write。 。。。more
Mihailo,
For a “crash course” on UX, this is the place to start。 Vy breaks down the path for becoming a UX professional into four, easily digestible steps, providing the most novice “uxer” insight into the world of UX。 A perfect read for non-designers who want to become designers, design students, managers who teach UX, marketers, developers, etc。I love this book so much, and as someone with more than a decade of experience as a UX Designer, I still learned a lot from this book。
Stoica Alexandra,
I recently purchased this book, I manage to only read a few pages, but I'm already in love with it。 As a recent UX graduate, I'm struggling to get my first job in the field。 I already follow Vy Alechnavicius's channel, and his videos helped me tremendously when I worked on my portfolio。 So this book is was a good addition to my shelf。 I recently purchased this book, I manage to only read a few pages, but I'm already in love with it。 As a recent UX graduate, I'm struggling to get my first job in the field。 I already follow Vy Alechnavicius's channel, and his videos helped me tremendously when I worked on my portfolio。 So this book is was a good addition to my shelf。 。。。more
Helena Pilih,
Thorough and specific。 Very helpful!Vy's book has incredibly specific and helpful advice to land a job and not just in UX。 From guiding you through building your portfolio to walking through the interviewing process in detail and giving great advice (e。g。 for how to deal with take-home assignments)。 However, I think it's what comes before the hiring advice that is even more helpful, especially for someone who hasn't worked in the UX industry yet or in any job。 Firstly, the book clarifies what UX Thorough and specific。 Very helpful!Vy's book has incredibly specific and helpful advice to land a job and not just in UX。 From guiding you through building your portfolio to walking through the interviewing process in detail and giving great advice (e。g。 for how to deal with take-home assignments)。 However, I think it's what comes before the hiring advice that is even more helpful, especially for someone who hasn't worked in the UX industry yet or in any job。 Firstly, the book clarifies what UX is exactly (and what it isn't) which was a lightbulb moment for me as a Product Manager with a UX lean。 Secondly, Vy teaches the reader to use frameworks when approaching design problems and to improve their communication。 Doing so can immediately improve your performance and help you manage up well but when I first started working this wasn't obvious to me even with a uni degree。 I had to learn this through trial & error while working with very senior stakeholders。 。。。more
