i was at the point of throwing away my notebooks after getting discouraged for not having a college degree and settling. imposter syndrome has struck me hard and this roadmap solidified my belief in myself. I too have only been learning for intensely for a few months and thought it wasn’t enough time to have credibility. Today I officially finished designing and developing my website. I’m so thankful for people like you, Rachel for making this type of knowledge accessible for people in my situation. To anyone on the fence as I have been for the past few months, please please please do not give up. Even small steps every day will add up, keep track of your learning in case you start to doubt yourself so you have something to look back on to realize how far you’ve come. I believe in you and i believe in me and i believe in us!!!
Girlll this is me I feel so discouraged because I don’t have my degree either & I’m struggling to find something I take interest in but I did love UX/UI design. I stopped learning because of imposter syndrome 😭 you are inspiring and I pray you’re successful girl.
@@rachelhow hi i have 32years old and i lost my job in 2020 and i didnt find any job in all this 2 years i love ux design and frontend dev so i have just 5 month to change my career and find a job so wish one dont take much time please help me
The way you talked point-to-point, it seemed as if you've been a product designer for your whole career. Certainly shows your consistency and practice.
This is literally a gold of a video, since i’ve watched this video I’ve been following this exact methodology to self learn UX with little experience and I have landed a UX job at a big consulting firm in 2 months. Thank you so much for making UX so accessible!! I have been struggling so much with money I had no funds to attend bootcamps and this pushed me to go forward and just be confident with the information I absorb! I absolutely love your channel please keep making content like this 🤧💛
@@greatbigmeat4769 in total i did about 256 applications so honestly just keep applying until you strike gold even if you feel u dont meet all the job spec after u feel at a point where you have a good grasp on how ux research techniques are conducted n when to use them aswell as the design side (i am an illustrator so it made ux design a smidge but easier to transition to)
I am so happy to hear you had landed a job so quickly. Your comment is a big motivation for me. I also wanna quit my current job as quick as possible to land a ux/ui designer position and be able to move to a different country. Good job! And thank you so much!
Love how you break down each step. Even though I have attended 2 boot camps I was left behind because I couldn't understand where to begin. Now I know where to look, learn, and find a good job. I am documenting this as of the 7th of March 2024 because I want to promise myself, you, and anyone else reading that I will land an internship/job before this year ends. See you at 31st of December 2024
Hey all, A little update I got an internship at a start-up. But I surely need to brush up my skills. So I came here again to get a reminder of the lessons.
A fantastic TH-cam channel for those who are new and seeking guidance in the field of UI/UX. I hope you continue to create even more valuable and informative videos. Wishing you good health and continued success!
You are really a UX Designer Rachel you know what your viewers need. Your videos are really helping out, I can't thank you enough dear! Please keep sharing more such information.
Thank you for the clear and practical guide. I’m currently shifting from digital marketing to UI/UX, learning by myself and practicing while freelancing. Your video has inspired me a lot. Wish I could have a mentor like you during my journey lol
Hi Rachel! This is the most honest, realistic and relatable view about starting ux design i get after watching all those how-to-become videos out there! You are so detailed and i love the pace and flow on how you explained everything! Thanks for making this video!
I really appreciate how passionate you are in your work.. The way you explained in depth with each and small thing shows how skilled or how good your way of learning is
I just want to say I'm so happy I stumbled upon you. I'm a neurodivergent/adhd mom making a drastic career change now that my daughter is in University. Working in finance/healthcare admin never felt natural, it was always a struggle. I'm naturally an aesthetic person and love technology, ... but I'm not the most technical person .... Yet I'm still very interested in becoming a UI/UX designer! You seem like a younger, more focused version of me which inspires me! LOL. I've subscribed to you on youtube and your website. THANK YOU! 🤗
Hello. I'm a front end developer and now I'm working on a project based on car sales, I do the front end and my friend does the backend of the site, just because we need a designer to help us make the pages more beautiful. If you have the desire to help us with this project that can be a start up for you and once in the future this project will also bring us money, leave a reply please
Anyone reading on 2024, just a few corrections: 1) There is no linear ux process in the real world, everything in the list is a tool, and you as a designer must choose what tools are appropriate for each project. 2) Don't make a beautiful and designed resume, instead make on in word or google docs so its ATS readable. Only if you talk directly with a designer user a hand crafted resume. 3) Market got over saturated because people trying to sell course over promised. It will be very hard for you to break in the industry, not impossible but very very hard. 4) Make real projects not just mocks. There are many open source communities who seek design guidance, join forums, reddit etc.
This was my sign to keep at self-taught UX design🙏🏽. And I appreciate that you said we need to know why we want to become a UX designer and not be doing it for the money or because it's trending. Excellent video, Rachel. Thank you!
@@rachelhow HI Rachel I am trying so hard on this journey. please what were your projects or case studies you did when u started out? I have been watching yt tutorials and practicing them. i still feel lost. how did you know what to do next? What websites served you more? When they say "UX Research " i dont fully understand how to implement such. i how did you know you were ready in just 3 months? Was your portfolio having enough to show case? please help. i am confused even though i have been googling and stuff I pray you see my msg on this old video of yours. have a great day
It's definitely not easy to self-taught things you have no idea about, more so if someone wants to switch careers for it. The work you have been doing has been very inspiring and we hope you continue to flourish in the UI/UX scene. We also appreciate these explainer videos and please keep them coming!
Thank you so much Rachel! I'm at the point where I'm feeling stuck at my self learning journey, this roadmap really helps a lot! Appreciate it really much! You're amazing!
I'm a frontend developer with a bit of backend/infra experience as well, but I've realized that I enjoy the process of UX design SO MUCH more. I'm now transitioning into UI/UX - Frontend developer role ;) Pretty excited. Thank you for this video. this helped me figure out where I could get started.
I just graduated BS Computer Science with most of it being spent knee deep in the pandemic. My human-computer interaction course was cut short and the struggle of transitioning into a new learning set up made things a lot harder. I am lost and discouraged but picking myself up slowly. Thank you for this, hopefully I'll make it through!
I bought the roadmap at a small amount I can afford. I am almost done with my UX internship and I am going to learn more and self-study using your roadmap. Thank you 🥺💕

This is the best video ever. I've been in this tough place for the last few years of wanting to pursue this career, but not feeling like I have the skills or ability to handle it. I already have tons of visual design skills, some program knowledge, and some experience building mock websites for fun, but still never believed in myself. While I have a lot of work to do on everything else, this made me want to commit to making this my career. I'm still stuck on where to go from here, but this helped a lot.
Got the roadmap! I am self-teaching myself in UX field as well and was overwhelmed by how diversified the skill set is. This comes at a good timing to assess my efforts. Thanks for the great content as usual! :)

Thanks so much Racheal , the details really help me , you really breaks it to pieces and it’s simplify, at first am doubting myself. U make me believe I can still do it , I love the word u said ❤Knowledge without action is useless
When I'm like walking in a fog and struggle how to continue my self_study without waste so much time to find a right way I wactched your video. And at least, I found a roadmap really "real" (it was not make up like it so easy and you will quickly have a trendy job, a high salary job etc...). Thank Rachel for your sharing!
Sometimes you cross paths with certain people that just make you want to be better-- you are one of those people for me Rachel. You're calm but have your stuff together-- Type A meets Type B! Balanced. Thank you for this video!
I was a bit skeptical at first when I saw this video, another clickbait. But you proved me wrong, this is an amazing start point. Thank you for dedicating your time to help a lot of us out there!
Been watching your videos lately since I want to switch careers from frontend development to product design and UX! Thanks for sharing the tips and looking forward to your upcoming videos! lots of love, from Indonesia!
Fantastic mentor! It seems exciting to become a UI/UX designer in 2024, and this methodical approach is just what prospective designers require. I can't wait to put these suggestions into practice and get started! I appreciate your insightful comments.
Amazing video, eliminates lot of confusion for new comers to UI / UX Design, definitely worth of my 12 minutes, after watching other videos where they talk a lot but not to point , this video created a positive vibe and clarity, thank you rachel, great work, Keep inspiring..
Excellent video. I’m a web developer at the moment but I’ve been more and more interested in making the switch to a UX designer. It’s scary but I feel like my design skills (I used to be a graphic designer) combined with my understanding of business & development could be put to good use in this new role! Wish me luck 😅
This video is fantastic!!! Very informative. The way you address each step is so easy to follow. Thank you Rachel for this wonderful video :) I can't wait to watch more.
9:45 omg this hits hard. I'm currently a graphic designer and I'm expected to create presentations for events to illustrations, which were all outside of my scope. Hell even my title as a "Creative Designer" is super vague, recently I just realise even the uiux designer in my team is also a "creative designer"
I'm just starting to get into UX/UI, and I'm glad I came across your video! Also, your voice is super soothing and nice to listen to...haha, and not in a weird way😅
Because of my financial situation, I couldn't pay any money for your roadmap but I hope I can support you in the future. Thank you for your time and generosity.
I found you a little while ago and am grateful for your experience/explanation. I tried the google certificate but dropped it because I did not realize how many design skills I needed to learn and it was overwhelming. These past four months I did just that and I feel ready to now learn Figma.
I'm starting on my UI/UX design journey as well and I do vlogs to track my learning❤️ Your channel helped me so much not only in growing my knowledge and skills, but in my confidence as well🌷Thank you so much Rachel🤍
Nicole hey. I’m also starting my design journey by watching some tutorials let’s call it self-made ux designer. maybe we can exchange experience and improve our skills by helping each other. let me know if you are down. kris
Hello Rachel, your videos are super helpful for me as I'm trying to transition into UX as a uni student so thank you so much 🥰 I was wondering if you could make a video talk about handing off design to developers more efficiently, because not many people talk about it.
Your video is so helpful. I have been teaching for a while and I would to transition to UX/UI design. It’s been tough to find a guide. Your road map is great
I just started taking UX design course after a fren recommended me & I never dive into tech world before & been in limbo since my dad's passing. Your video really brings enlightenment & this brings me hope to venture in UX design field for someone who has no idea in tech field thank you ✨
I have watched your video for the first time and now I am confident that I can do good in this field coz. I thought that only bootcamp can help you to became a Ux designer. So thank you for making this video 🤩❤
I have a question that's been holding me back a little bit which is: how does a self-taught designer create a case study when they've never landed a client or worked at a company before?
You can create a case study by yourself or with help of a mentor (as people who go to boot camps do). Like everything related to developing a skill, practice makes it better.
I've taken so many courses and you are basically telling us the same things in such an organised manner for free that I've been paying for till now. Great way of putting things ❤ btw you said step 3 twice. Just for information 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I'm looking to switch my career to UI/UX Design. Your roadmap really helps me to know where to start and what to do😊😊😊
Rachel, this is just so well done and your resources and presentation in this video is so awesome. Thank you for sharing with us and giving us the confidence to DO THIS! Just subscribed with notifications, can't wait to see more great work from you!!
Want to be a product designer but had no idea on how to start... I Learnt graphic design a and am good at it. But don't know what other preliminary skill am to learn and its starting to get soft on me but watching this road map video i got fired-up, more optimistic about my dream Still need mentorship though. Thanks you Rachy How for this video. Will follow you up on your social media handles.
This video is so helpful. I started learning ux a few months ago sometimes I feel discouraged. If anyone would like to connect and design please let me know!
Hi christelle! I am in the same boat as you! I would love to connect and talk about UX and our journey! I also started a few months ago and feeling discouraged and it’s nice to know that I am not alone 💕
Hey 👋 I would love to connect too. I started learning UX Design a few months ago and am set to join a Bootcamp. Would be great to talk to others learning aswell 😁
Thanks for this on Rachel. I just began my UI/UX journey 5 days ago and I know next to Jack. So this video is of great help 'cos flying without a roadmap or an organized way of learning is stressful.
This is the first time I am really starting to understand what a UX designer does and is. Someone told me 3 years ago to into UX. I research it but could never put my finger on it if it was really for me. I just could not find the right information. Thank you
It is SO kind of you to create these videos on top of giving us a roadmap! I've been pretty lost recently as my course literally called Interaction Design didn't actually do UX design at all (I thought there might be some y'know) and I fell out of love with design for a while. The course was good and I learned a lot, but I'm excited to learn more about UI and UX design and hopefully build a career from it. Thank you so much for these incredibly helpful videos, it is so kind and generous of you
@1jennyMcc, I fell out as well. After disappointing bootcamp experience, I am hoping to get the motivation and desire again to become a true UX designer 😅. Please people running away from boot camps promising jobs in 3months or 6 months after the course, they've no link with the companies, you will be doing courses that doesn't give you real world problem to solve after paying hug amount of money, especially if you are new to tech industry😢it won't help you. Have learnt my lesson in the hard way.😢
Your videos are so pleasing and effective, Thank you very much for the roadmap... I am sure that I will start documenting my learning path and your video will be at first.😊 Thanks a lot...

Hell even my title as a "Creative Designer" is super vague, recently I just realise even the uiux designer in my team is also a "creative designer"
I'm just starting to get into UX/UI, and I'm glad I came across your video! Also, your voice is super soothing and nice to listen to...haha, and not in a weird way😅
Thank you! Haha :)
I keep coming back to this video to set my path straight. Thanks Rachel!
Thank you 🥹
Love the greeneries all over your room. Great video as always Rachel!
Because of my financial situation, I couldn't pay any money for your roadmap but I hope I can support you in the future. Thank you for your time and generosity.
I found you a little while ago and am grateful for your experience/explanation. I tried the google certificate but dropped it because I did not realize how many design skills I needed to learn and it was overwhelming. These past four months I did just that and I feel ready to now learn Figma.
Hi Jissela, would you recommend to learn design skills before starting the Google UX course? Thank you
Thank you Rachel. This is so insightful. I will have to spend more time going through all you mentioned in the video...
Yes! Go for it :)
I love how you’re really managed and have a lot of motivation to do self-development. Thank you for a very useful video!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for sharing! I've enrolled to Designlab UX Academy as personally for me it's hard to push myself but your video is so helpful!
I'm starting on my UI/UX design journey as well and I do vlogs to track my learning❤️ Your channel helped me so much not only in growing my knowledge and skills, but in my confidence as well🌷Thank you so much Rachel🤍
Nicole hey. I’m also starting my design journey by watching some tutorials let’s call it self-made ux designer. maybe we can exchange experience and improve our skills by helping each other. let me know if you are down.

Hello Rachel, your videos are super helpful for me as I'm trying to transition into UX as a uni student so thank you so much 🥰 I was wondering if you could make a video talk about handing off design to developers more efficiently, because not many people talk about it.
Sure!! Added to my notes :)
Thank you for watching 💕
How is everything going now??
Your video is so helpful. I have been teaching for a while and I would to transition to UX/UI design. It’s been tough to find a guide. Your road map is great
I just started taking UX design course after a fren recommended me & I never dive into tech world before & been in limbo since my dad's passing.
Your video really brings enlightenment & this brings me hope to venture in UX design field for someone who has no idea in tech field thank you ✨

As someone who is interested in this field and looking for a place to start - thank you. This video was very frank and effective.
Much gratitude in the comment section… well I must appreciate aswell (Thank you so much Ma’am Rachel)
I have watched your video for the first time and now I am confident that I can do good in this field coz. I thought that only bootcamp can help you to became a Ux designer. So thank you for making this video 🤩❤
Thanks! Rachel 🥰🥰 was eagerly waiting for this!
Thanks for watching, Celica!
I have a question that's been holding me back a little bit which is: how does a self-taught designer create a case study when they've never landed a client or worked at a company before?
You can create a case study by yourself or with help of a mentor (as people who go to boot camps do). Like everything related to developing a skill, practice makes it better.
I've taken so many courses and you are basically telling us the same things in such an organised manner for free that I've been paying for till now. Great way of putting things ❤ btw you said step 3 twice. Just for information 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I'm looking to switch my career to UI/UX Design. Your roadmap really helps me to know where to start and what to do😊😊😊
Really amazing video, and really amazing sponsor, best video on the internet about UI/UX Design!

Want to be a product designer but had no idea on how to start... I Learnt graphic design a and am good at it. But don't know what other preliminary skill am to learn and its starting to get soft on me but watching this road map video i got fired-up, more optimistic about my dream Still need mentorship though. Thanks you Rachy How for this video. Will follow you up on your social media handles.
I have watched this over and over 🎉
Gosh she is so very beautiful ❤️
This may be my sign to pursue to change my career path and become a UX/UI Design. Thank you so much for this very insightful video. ;)
This video is so helpful. I started learning ux a few months ago sometimes I feel discouraged. If anyone would like to connect and design please let me know!
Hi christelle! I am in the same boat as you! I would love to connect and talk about UX and our journey! I also started a few months ago and feeling discouraged and it’s nice to know that I am not alone 💕
Hey 👋 I would love to connect too. I started learning UX Design a few months ago and am set to join a Bootcamp. Would be great to talk to others learning aswell 😁
Thanks for this on Rachel. I just began my UI/UX journey 5 days ago and I know next to Jack. So this video is of great help 'cos flying without a roadmap or an organized way of learning is stressful.
Tell me ur roadmap or any source
Thank you for sharing with us, Rachel :) I'm in the process of looking for my first job as a UX/UI designer, and your video helps me a lot!
9 month update, how’d the job hunt go¿
I am a beginner and everything you said just went over my head like a plane in the sky
Thank you so much, I really like road maps when it comes to learning new things!
This is the first time I am really starting to understand what a UX designer does and is. Someone told me 3 years ago to into UX. I research it but could never put my finger on it if it was really for me. I just could not find the right information. Thank you
It is SO kind of you to create these videos on top of giving us a roadmap! I've been pretty lost recently as my course literally called Interaction Design didn't actually do UX design at all (I thought there might be some y'know) and I fell out of love with design for a while. The course was good and I learned a lot, but I'm excited to learn more about UI and UX design and hopefully build a career from it. Thank you so much for these incredibly helpful videos, it is so kind and generous of you
@1jennyMcc, I fell out as well. After disappointing bootcamp experience, I am hoping to get the motivation and desire again to become a true UX designer 😅. Please people running away from boot camps promising jobs in 3months or 6 months after the course, they've no link with the companies, you will be doing courses that doesn't give you real world problem to solve after paying hug amount of money, especially if you are new to tech industry😢it won't help you. Have learnt my lesson in the hard way.😢
Thank you so much for making this video!! I admire your self-taught journey of becoming a product designer.
Thank you so much!
Love the way you clear all doubts so easily. I love watching your videos.❤
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Just starting off in this career and your advice is what l needed. I will get some books online and keep practicing until l get there.
Great video and I love that you offer your viewers artifacts and templates to takeaway!
Yay! Thanks for watching too, Stuart!
I am hopping to learn UI UX , I found your video so helpful and so detailed.
Thank you for whole list to be UI UX.
I am a fresh IT graduate who wants to shift focus from programming to UI/UX and this video motivates me to pursue my plan. Thank you!
Been trying to get back into ux so this came at the perfect time, appreciate it!
Thank you so much!
Your videos are so pleasing and effective, Thank you very much for the roadmap... I am sure that I will start documenting my learning path and your video will be at first.😊 Thanks a lot...
Best of luck to you
Hi, I am starting my UX/UI journey officially from today :) home to reach my goals in next 3 months
