UI/UX DESIGNER NEEDED URGENTLY....pls send in a DM with your previous work samples.

tesolmake@gmail.com

I'm a UI/UX designer. I just sent an email.

Update.
I'm done with the interview. It went really well.

They said the next step is a written test then another interview with the CTO, after that that is the offer letter. Mehn it's not easy at all oh.
I gave them an option for me to work remotely, but they keep emphasising on hybrid/Onsite.

Let's see how it goes.

Tomorrow would be my first UI/UX interview.
Insha Allah

I've been more of freelance work, with my many skills.
.
My side hustle skill just landed me a 300k pm job with one of our tech companies in lag, i'll be working from my base state where they intend to open an operations branch.
.
Free meals, games, and my first task involves product design for a certain parastatal.
.
With determination you can take yourself higher.
.
Tech is the new oil.
.
Straight forward interview.
Last question was to provide my instagram handle which i did.
They legit checked my posts and pages i followed.
.
They even saw client reviews from my freelance services i innocently posted some years back.
.

Congrats bro
But what is your niche in tech?

Isvo:
Hi pls can I see your portfolio website

I post my case studies on Behance for now cause I'm still working on the website.
Send me a PM and I'd send the link to you

TheManOfTheYear:
I'm trying not to pull out my anonymity. I already dropped tips on what I did to my CV.

I hope you understand

Okay, thanks

@TheManOfTheYear
Can you please send me a copy of your CV and technical writing so I'd revamp mine.
Please mine is not taking me to any stage.
I've sent you a PM.

@airsaylongcome
Are you a product designer? If yes, how do you apply for jobs? I do apply through LinkedIn and I must say it hasn't gotten me anything tangible. I have only gotten one interview. I don't know if it's better to present a portfolio on website or using Behance and Dribbble.
Do you use a website portfolio or Behance?

TheManOfTheYear:
So sad to here that. It can be really disappointing after thinking you've almost clinched it.

Na their loss jare. You know how many US startups are working with Nigerian devs remotely. Time difference shouldn't be an excuse as long as the candidate is fine with it.

I even prefer working at night sef.
Great things are coming your way bro

Amen oh

Product design interview mad bro(Europe o coz I don't apply to naija jobs) I mean the task sometimes goes beyond the ordinary. I was given a design task last week to be submitted in 2-3 days. I feel some candidates already submitted but nobody seem to get the scope. I know this because till now the employer hasn't stop adding clues and hints on how to solve the problem. I had to reach to out to few designers that are close so we can work on it together. Till now bros no hope.

Another interview like that begins with the design task, then interview with company hr. It was remaining two, one with the lead designer and a junior ux. The last one will be with the CEO. Like I normally do I sometimes check these individuals profile on LinkedIn to know the wereys I'm up against. The lead designer happens to be a chinko babe like that and her profile scares the sh*t out of me. I mean I was just seeing Cambridge, something Harvard I can't even remember.

Fast forward to interview day na. Interview with hr and lead designer was the same day, I hour each. To cut the long story short, the chinko babe drill me no be small. As a naija boy, I know I can't carry last so I try giving it all it takes. Sometimes during the interview I will just smile and try not to Bleep it up with my responses but that babe is either a saddist or racist. Why? I've had interviews in the past where the white babe will smile and even joke about my name and country.

Now I understand why a naija employer will offer you N70k monthly and their European counterpart go dey beg you with N800-N900k (as long as you are very good). And yes, the job the chinko girl interviewed me for is a remote job in Poland and its 900k monthly.

Though I'm confident I will get a job soon. All the interviews and design tasks have done are well documented so I keep working on them. Though design tasks come in different dimensions so it's difficult to really tell what to expect next. Currently, I have one naija job(remote) which I'm using to sustain. If i mention the pay you will weep for me. I remember telling the CEO I'm only doing it to build my resume, work experience and recommendation afterwards.

Bottom line bros, no be only you o we all share similar challenges.

Bro, Product design interview no be here oh! The process is too long. I remembered a time I was given a design task, after completing it and doing interviews. Then it was time for the company to onboard me and give me an offer letter, that was how the CEO asked me which country I was, I told him Nigeria. 2hrs later I was sent a rejection letter stating "time differences" cause it was a US job (remote) .

I believe LinkedIn, Indeed and Twitter are the core platforms in getting a job in tech though I haven't gotten any but I'd keep applying and modifying my portfolio and resume.

TheManOfTheYear:
I haven't gotten a job yet o
I'm just currently having about 5 interviews.
I haven't even made up to 25 applications and I'm having this great number of interviews

Hopefully, one would click.

Congrats bro
I'm a product designer, to get a job/gig is really tough especially for Juniors. Tho I'd keep applying and working on my portfolio.
Congrats once again

apparently half of my symptoms were mentally induced as a result of fear. I’ll do a deeper analysis though but presently all previous symptoms have disappeared.

Okay.
So the symptoms went on it's own?
