It's so hard to get a design jobs in the current market due to 1. Companies only desire experienced designers 2. 9-11 rounds till you get an offer (including presentation,app critique,design challenge) 3. Less openings compared SDE 4. NOW F$_&king coronavirus leads to hiring freeze 5. I am on a visa What should I do? I just moved to SF for a job hunt ! Go the Golden gate and jump? - A sad product designer with 3y exp #ux #design #hope #virus
Why tf would you move to San Francisco to LOOK for a job? If the job is worth something, and you're worth something, they'll pay for that.
Moved here with brother
Chin up and be strong. This shall pass. And everything might not happen for a reason but it can really be a blessing in disguise
Thank you for the motivation , but just received reject from Bloomberg at last round with automated reply
Listen, I personally experienced this: something great happened to me 10 years ago and everyone was envious of me; turned out to be a curse. On the contrary I struggled with something difficult for a few years now and now I’m seeing why this can turn out to be something good for the future years to come. This is not just some chicken soup for the soul. While this is happening to you, it might derail your original plan but it might not be something bad. You will find a way out of this. Ask yourself if this profession is really what you want. If so fight for it. Doesn’t have to be here in this state or even in this country. If this profession is not what you really want, failure would force you to find something else. Failure can be your teacher in life.
I can take a look at your portfolio if you want, and perhaps give a referral if there’s good work. Dm me if interested
That will be really helpful
