I am a UI/UX desigenr in my current company since last 3 years with a decent pay with total experience of 6 years.

I do posses several design domain experience spans across UI/UX, Graphic design, Motion design, Video editing, Web development and 3D design. I have hands on experience on several tools for the domains I mentioned earlier.

Now my biggest problem is I LACKED DEPTH, not because I focussed on multiple design domains but honestly the companies I worked so far, the projects I designed so far has no such scope to dig the design field deep (Specially UX) to learn. I am very good at visual design but when it comes to UX I really lack depth, which is clearly understandable for me when I attend interviews.

I am not blaming the companies and projects I worked with so far but my ultimate goal is to bag the high pay job and demands skill depth way more than what I currently hold. Whatever the skill range I have developed so far is out of my complete personal initiative and projects, companies litterally got nothing to make me learn from them.

I really want to be a part of big design teams, work on complex projects that dramatically uplift my profile weight but not finding a way to get there. There are online courses and all I dont think they alone matter.

One thing I seriously believe is..I HAVE GOT POTENTIAL but WRONG ENVIRONEMENTS RUINING IT.

I'm a UX designer and I've been working on a concept that tries to fix the decision-making moment in crypto apps — specifically what happens right before someone confirms a trade.

Found 5 patterns that keep coming up and designed solutions around each. Would love real trader validation before I take this further.

1. People don't realise they're putting 60% of their portfolio into one trade. The app shows price and balance — never the full picture of what they're actually risking. → A pre-confirmation screen that shows portfolio exposure and estimated downside in plain language — only triggers on high-risk trades.

2. Someone who usually trades $200 suddenly throws in $800 for no clear reason. Nothing flags it. → An inline signal that quietly says "this is 3× your usual trade size" at the moment of entry — no blocking, just awareness.

3. People think holding 6 different coins means they're diversified. Most crypto assets move together — so they're not actually spread at all. → A before/after view showing how each asset's weight shifts after this trade — so users see concentration risk in real time.

4. Once a trade goes red, people just stop deciding. Weeks pass. The loss gets worse. → A neutral prompt that surfaces when a position has been in loss beyond a threshold — shows the break-even recovery needed, offers three equal options. No recommendation, just a moment of conscious engagement.

5. After a bad trade closes, the app shows a red number with no context. Same mistakes next month. → A post-trade debrief that connects the outcome back to the risk flags raised at entry — and surfaces patterns across recent trades.

Curious whether any of these actually resonate with real traders. Do these feel like genuine pain points or am I solving problems that don't exist? Brutal feedback welcome.

I am a 6 years experienced Multidisciplinary designer (UI/UX, Graphic design, 2D Motion design, Video editing, 3D design, Workflow automation design (n8n) and Basic Web dev). I am looking for countries that would land me abroad job to gain international experience.

I dont want to try and waste my time for tier 1 countries where countless people are already fighting for a single job. I want a bunch of countries I can safely try to land a decent paying job with less expenses. Except UAE, Malaysia.

Hello everyone, I am a UI/UX and graphic designer in hyderabad with 6 years of experience across domains including motion design, Video editing, 3D design, Workflow automation design (n8n) and web devlopment (html, css and JS also Framer).

I am planning to move to Dubai to search for job that aligns with my skills. Since mainstream corporate jobs are highly competitive, what if I start as a graphic designer in any local print agency and then look for better opportunities while staying in Dubai?

Does this a smart strategy or should I reconsider?
