💡 Want to level up your UX design skills and master Figma? Check out my crash course at alienacai.com Let's talk rookie mistakes. In this video, I'll reveal three UI and four UX mistakes that might be standing between you and your dream job. These are very common beginner portfolio project mistakes from UX bootcamps and certificate courses students. From fonts to project scope, I'm here to guide you away from these pitfalls.

out of all the youtube videos on UX design I have seen in past 2 months, yours is the only one I felt "No Rubbish, Perfectly on Topic" content. Its such a soothing and confidence boosting experience to watch your content. Thanks Aliena 😊👍 I have also pre signup for your figma course. Waiting for the slots to be open. Cheers to true learning🥂

1:38 "Yeah, who does that? I mean..." Imediately going back to my designs to change them

The onboarding process point is so true. I was caught up in designing that in one of my first few projects. 😂😂

Oh goodness i badly needed this

Love your videos, I'm taking notes with each one. I was thinking I should design an entire app or website, but instead I'm gonna take your advice and only design one user flow

Thank you for your detailed explanation of common UI and UX mistakes. Your practical advice is truly helpful. Could you elaborate on how to strike the right balance between providing enough information to build trust with users without overwhelming them during the onboarding process? 🤝

i chukled at the ellipse instagram joke. good one.

Hi Ms. Cai!! thank you for the awesome videos, it's really helping me a lot. I was wondering, if I share a recent UI design with you, would you please make review of that?

HI! Thanks, this was very helpful. Could you please talk about UX Writing or UX Research to ?

Can you make more such videos??

Thank you for your anazing videos Aliena, I have 2 questions - must you write case study for a project? Especially if you didn't have to do interviews and what not. Secondly, how do you present a project such as a landing page in your portfolio?

UX job is hard to find nowadays... Here to give support to the channel

✌🏽 Also, for the onboarding process would a video be better that then leads to login/sign up page?

✌🏻 ✌🏻 ✌🏻 Thank you

This is an informative and describing snag's in video Aliena mam. can you please make a video of UX research

sister aliena taking google ux course and learn figma is good enough to become ux designer

Thanks Aliena for all this advice. i had a question, would you recommand that a fitness app /tracker should be an app or a webapp . based on what you said i hear webapp, but fitness apps are used more than onces most of the time

Hy Aliena, As a newbie designer I tend to design all my components like button inputs etc from scratch for every project not that I was not aware of design system Just did not have idea how should I use them I saw one of your video and tried to follow it. it worked however I started facing issues when it came down to apply a brand identity as pretty much all the design systems come with their own brand identity and if we want to apply our brand identity (Just to clarify m just talking about colors here) it becomes quite challenging as design systems comes with dozens of variations and shades of each color detaching a component does not help as we will loose the whole functionality of it. The design system used in one of your video was quite simple but when it comes to larger systems like Material UI it is super challenging as a newbie as we do not know the optimized way to change colors the 2nd problem I encounter was the given components are not a good fit for a project and ofc we cannot change instance so in order to make those components fit either we need to change the original component or create a new one from scratch as we want to keep all the states attached to it states as in effects (e.g Hover animation, click, Tapped etc ) If you have some time plz make an elaborated video about this particular thing how we can modify the design system to our liking without breaking it. Thank you Love your content

Your video is informative and understandable. I found out your whiteboard challenge. ✌️. I have some query could you like to help me? How can I reach oit? Thanks

✌✌

When I look at Google MD and Apple's HIG, they seem to recommend 16+ and 17+, respectively, for the base body font size? Am I misunderstanding something?

For freshers UI UX Designe job is better or not?
