r/UIUX

im starting my final year in a couple days and I want to learn ui/ux thoroughly and build ny portfolio. I was learning AI ML but now i think its not for me and I would like to shift to this.

(im not changing just cause "its not for me", i just don't ai ml interesting for me and I have learnt some basics of ui before and i do like the creativity.)

I would really appreciate roadmap / guidance and advice.

any guide on portfolio making and projects that stand out or are essential in a portfolio and how to present it in a portfolio is also very much helpful (i genuinely cant figure out the portfolio making. I saw tons but all were so experienced designers portfolio, im confused)

aiming to study and master fundamentals and portfolio within 6 months and improve further on.

any general advice for this field is also helpful!

thanks

I'm a masters in design graduate and looking for UI UX freshers job. Since it's getting difficult to get a job as a fresher in the industry, i switched to teaching job roles for the time being.

By now I have learned how to use codex, Claude code, git hub, vercel etc. but I'm really confused about what to do now? Should I create more self made projects? Should I start finding freelancing work? Should I keep searching for UI UX freshers job? What to do now?

I've been diving into topics like:

* Color psychology * Typography psychology * Visual hierarchy * Whitespace * Motion & micro-interactions * Shapes and corner radius * Layout psychology * Cognitive load * Eye-scanning patterns * Perceived trust through design

A lot of articles claim these influence how users feel and behave, but I'm curious how much of this actually translates into real products.

For those of you who've designed or shipped products:

* Which of these had the biggest impact on user perception? * Which ones are overrated? * Are there any books, papers, or resources that genuinely changed the way you design?

I'm trying to understand what actually improves the user's experience rather than just following design trends.

Im preparing my case study on the project i made... need suggestions how do i make it...on figma framer squarespace...ive anybody got any suggestions n all..please help out!!

Hi I am 31 years old guy having 8+ years experience in design and uiux field. The thing is I am underpaid. I am still earning only 46k INR/per month which is very less.

So requesting everyone whoever can help me to find me better job with atleast decent pay.

Note : I don't have degree.

Thank you.

Should I take this UI/design course in 2026? I'm not sure if this is what I should pursue or not. I want to learn skills that will help me get a job and have high value in the future, whatever that might be (except coding stuffs).

Any senior's please guide me with market conditions and tell me please that how can I do it ?

( Currently, I am 12th passout with PCM. But don't know what to do )

Thank you.

Hello, I am here to ask for advices from experienced people who already went through a lot!

You see, I am 21 turning 22 this year and I am only a highschool graduate in the Philippines. And as you know or might not know, in the Philippines...when you only finished highschool and never mad it to college, your fucked 🥲😊

Why? Because companies in the Philippines are strict and they prefer people who actually graduated from good universities and has bachelor degrees and etc.

So, for me...I am truly and very fucked, I keep telling myself my life isn't over yet and everything will be okay. So, right now I am with my family and is thinking of doing free courses online with free certificate and probably try to accumulate experience if I am given an opportunity.

I am actually studying HTML, CSS, and Now JavaScript, I haven't really started with JavaScript but I will, and I will also start doing the free courses I find for UI/UX design.

Now, what I am wondering is if UI/Us design can be done remotely or WFH...I think they could be done at home but I'm not sure yet because I don't have experience of working yet and all. So, I'm actually terrified I'm making a big mistake...also I have severe anxiety with getting in contact with people because I am very anti-social and introverted that I forgot how to make friends 🥲

Anyways, if there is any advices from well experience people out there, I would really be happy to hear any advices or experience you have because I am completely lost!

Hey everyone! 👋

This is my case study, and I'd really appreciate your feedback.

Please let me know what you think, what could be improved, or if there's anything I should change. Any feedback is welcome!

Thank you! 🙏

Tomorrow is my interview at a FAANG level company for an UI/UX intern role. I don't know what to prepare and where to prepare from. Need help. The interview is with the hiring manager. This can be a breakthrough moment for me so please me seniors 🙏🙏🙏🥹

Since my university did not provide anything for me to study during the summer, I was wondering what I could do to improve my UX and UI skills?

I'm guessing a personal project may be the way, but I'm having a bit of trouble getting started on anything. I've wasted way too much time (due to a pain) but I still have like 2 months remaining, so I want to turn things around. Maybe I could try designing a website, since my uni hasn't gone through that yet?

I tried making a portfolio a while ago, but it didn't feel right, especially since everything I've done so far was catered to the course for examination, and I feel it's not as suitable for a work-style portfolio. Or maybe I'm wrong for thinking that way?

Anyway, if anyone has any sort of advice, I'd appreciate it! (My university uses Figma, incase you're wondering)

so im still pretty junior at UI/UX and im redesigning the marketing site for a SaaS

product. first full site ive done solo and honestly its harder than I expected, and I dont

really have anyone around to tell me if im on the right track.

the stuff im going in circles on:

- the hero. cant tell if it explains what the product does fast enough or if im cramming

too much up top

- how much to even put on the page. it swings between feeling empty and feeling crammed and

I cant find the middle

- the pricing section, [your actual doubt here, eg how to lay the tiers out so it doesnt

overwhelm people]

- whether the whole thing feels trustworthy enough that someone would actually pay for it

im not really after a one off critique (though ill take one lol), more hoping to find

someone a bit further along whos cool with me running things past them here and there while

I work through it. I learn fast and I do the homework, wont waste your time.

if any of this sounds familiar id genuinely love to hear how you think about it. thanks
