Thank you for being transparent. People need to know these things to make sure they have a realistic scale of their value on the market. I'm not sure why money is a taboo topic now days but either way, I appreciate you sharing.
Thank you for sharing your experiences, Sophie! I'm currently trying to break into the UX/Product design industry and it can be so frustrating!! However, your vid has given me some extra confidence and determination to not give up (so thank you!!). Also, your website is STUNNING. Would you be willing to talk about how you built it? I currently have my portfolio on Behance, but know that I should probably move to my own site. Hope you have a great day! -Michelle
I’m so glad to hear! UX design is such an emerging and in-demand role, if you work hard no doubt it’ll pay off 😤 The current standard is to have a website portfolio so it’s important that you have one, so I definitely suggest building one soon! You can use a no-code website builder like Wix to easily create one from a template, even if it’s just images and links to your behance projects as a start. Hope this helps for now!! ❤️
How were you able to work full time and contract simultaneously for the same work schedule hours? Was there double transparency on this to both employers?
Thank you for sharing! I would like to ask, are ux designers in demand in Canada? I'm in highschool and I'm interested in the career but I'm scared about job security. Would you say it's easy to find a job as a ux designer? I'd love to hear your opinion! ❤
UX jobs in general are quite new and there’s so much potential for this sector to grow. With that being said, a lot of people recognize this so are either pursuing it or pivoting their careers into UX; currently it’s saturated with junior candidates but also good talent is in demand. I think it goes without saying that for any designer, your portfolio will speak for itself. So if you build a really strong one, I’m sure you’ll get headhunted ☺️
🙏 ofc! I graduated from YSDN (York/Sheridan Design), it’s a discontinued program now tho haha 😭 last batch is graduating this spring! But York and Sheridan both have their own versions now
The more ‘💰‘ you comment, the richer you’ll get this year 👀
that's a pretty good progression for someone who's still so young!
Thank you!! Shooting for up only 🚀

@@sophiico Thank you!!
Amazing journey! Can I ask what program you graduated in? Boot camps vs university degree? Thanks!
🙏 ofc! I graduated from YSDN (York/Sheridan Design), it’s a discontinued program now tho haha 😭 last batch is graduating this spring! But York and Sheridan both have their own versions now
Guys what do u think about moving to Canada and finding a ux designer job there?
Hi I really like your website, and I saw you self-described as a webflow enthastic, do you mind making some tutorial on webflow? That will be awesome!

How do you enjoy the KOHO?
💰💰💰
💰💰💰💰
$107,000 Zimbabwe dollars?
💰💰
✨💰💰✨
How much was your total income with both jobs? 💰
Are these USD or Canadian?
CAD !
can we see your portfolio you applied to jobs with.
For sure! It’s sophii.co
@@sophiico oh wow. Thats all they looked at. Do employers care if you are self taught? Or do they expect a certification?
@@asapmonkey2393 I wouldn’t say they care much about that. At the end of the day, your work will speak for itself, not the education you came from!
@@sophiico hey sorry its been a while but how did you make your website? like where did you host it?
its really amazing
two jobs and school.... i'm scared
As long as you’re cautious of burnout and understand your own limits! Then get that bread 🍞👀
true hustlers dont burn outtt, they keep it going icu
