Remember when you made your first Junior UX portfolio ? What mistakes did you make? Here are some common ones to avoid: 1. Overloading every UX case study Displaying each artifact in full detail Describing everything meticulously Incorporating all types of mockups, from low-fi to hi-fi Why isn't overloading effective? It simply overwhelms. Neither recruiters nor clients have the time to sift through a surfeit of information. Hence, presenting concise information, weaving a compelling narrative, strategic visual hierarchy, and strong headers become crucial. 2. Not applying critical thinking when conducting user research Executing 5 user interviews just because a standard guide suggested so Neglecting to balance qualitative research with quantitative Why is critical thinking imperative in user research? Five interviews might not yield exhaustive insight into users' needs and problems. Furthermore, user interviews might not always be the best approach - quantitative methods, or a combination of both might prove more effective. Critical thinking allows the best UX methods to be chosen deliberately. 3. Insisting on creating everything single-handedly Not adopting any UI kits Even avoiding templates in Miro Why doesn't creating everything independently work? UI kits and ready-made templates exist for a purpose. Leveraging them isn't cutting corners, but a means to expedite the process. This becomes particularly vital early in a UX career, where innate understanding of aspects like spacing and visual hierarchy may not be fully developed. 4. Omitting UX metrics 🧮 Failing to mention how the success of designs would be evaluated Why is including metrics significant? Metrics inform better design decisions, help track design evolution over time and are invaluable when discussing designs with stakeholders. Integrating even a hint of UX metrics indicates a comprehensive understanding of the product.

🚪UX for Agents, Part 2: Ambient One of the UXs for agents that we are most interested is ambient agents This in theory allows us to have teams of agents helping us without needing to kick them off... but it can be a tricky UX to nail. Thoughts here: https://lnkd.in/gKSEjXab
