The gf is graduating today from Cal and recently switched from trying to look for SWE fulltime roles to Product Design/UX roles. She had one SWE internship so far at Blizzard but no design internships. I think she's been working on a portfolio and it looks pretty decent. Can any designers here help her with a referral in the bay area or offer any suggestions? She will be staying here for several months to interview for jobs. Please save us from long distance!
Are you saying that she has 0 design experience? What does she have in her portfolio?
She has design experience in the form of her extracurriculars and cog sci major. She tried to show some case studies in the portfolio and design process such as ideation and prototyping - idk what I'm talking about cus I'm not design
I’m happy to offer guidance and if her portfolio is strong, possibly refer. Have been in the situation of long distance with my husband earlier in our relationship so I can empathize. DM me if interested.
Message me and I’ll take a look at her work.
love to help, Dm me her works
Designers tend to have a very good support inside their cohort. However, blind may not be a good place to look for ones.
Blind seems pretty good so far :D
