How To Know if UX Design Bootcamps Are Right For You w/ Jessica Gaddis

Episode Summary

Getting into a UX design career has become incredibly popular lately. It’s almost like a modern day gold rush. As a result, there are a lot of companies capitalizing on the sudden increase in attention toward tech design jobs by creating products people can buy to help them get into those types of careers. One specific thing that I get a ton of questions about is UX design bootcamps. That’s the topic of this weeks episode with Jessica Gaddis. Jessica is a self-taught product designer who has worked at places like Netflix and Twitter. She encourages people to really consider your goals and options before you make a commitment to spend the kind of money a UX design bootcamp requires. It’s important to know things like What motivates you to keep going when you’re frustrated The learning style that best suites you The way you build relationships with people in the same career field All of that and more will help you determine whether or not a UX design bootcamp is right for you. Bottom line, you will not want to miss this episode.
