I was afraid i will have to spend hours watching many videos on TH-cam to get into this but damn… You gave me full content I would expect from 4/5 videos and after 25 minutes I can tell that I fully trust You that this material is enough to guide me to make my portfolio the best way. I cannot find words that would express how thankful I am. I hope you find satisfaction on what you doing for us.🤗
Right. To. The. Point. I cannot thank you enough!! So many people go off on random tangents or fail to hit key points in their videos, its so frustrating lol! Beyond happy I found your channel 🤩🤗
Thank you so much for making this, Sharon! I would love to see more of how you gathered so many insights on building the portfolios and how you taught yourself to be a better designer every day. Essentially how you structure yourself so well and what are your sources and inspiration.
Advice is mostly from my UX bootcamp springboard and my mentor who works at Google. As for inspiration, trying to get into FAANG was my goal/inspiration and the pain of not getting that motivated me to try very hard.
This helped me SO MUCH!!! I just started building my portfolio and with the amount of information out there I just feel super overwhelmed and not knowing the right direction to follow, but this makes a lot more sense! Thank you very much!
Hi. Sharon, I just would like to shout out as an also career shift person who is struggling to get a job in UX field in the new country with no experience. Although I have design background, it is still hard for me. But your content is very informative and, more than that, inspiring. You know exactly what the users(like me) would love to hear, and you did it in a very structured way with considerate details. Thank you for your contents. They motivate to go back and redesign my case study and portfolio after a very long procrastination. Keep going.
Hi Sharon! I used the structure of your ONNIT case study and these tips to apply to my case studies and received positive feedback from mentors and peers so far. It helped so much to story tell rather than just regurgitate the process end to end.
This is the best video talking on this subject that I've seen. I've spent SO long dabbling in different videos, trying to get my head wrapped around this in a way that made it simplified. You've made it easy, straightforward, given me permission to just braindump my thoughts initially without much structure and THEN work through and organize it (I don't know why I beat myself up for being unorganized at first). It no longer feels so overwhelming and stressful. Thank you SO much for breaking it down like this, and also keeping it below 30 minutes!
Thanks Sharon for sharing. Such a helpful and informative video🙏. Need more videos about how is your design process going on while working on a project.
This is soooo good, honestly better than some senior designers that explain how to structure case studies(sometimes they never go into the why). Please continue this type of content because I'm here for it. Aaaahhh I'm literally so excited by how much info you shared and the why!!!!
I have so much gratitude and appreciation for your work and the ability to share this valuable information :) You definitely have what it takes to be not just a good designer but also a tutor:) thank you
Thank you so much for sharing all this great information. I'm transitioning from IT recruitment to Product design and this has been one of the most helpful videos for me.
I agree with the personas versus use cases. I've also worked with teams that forget about these artifacts once created. It can be frustrating when teams neglect to revisit the personas created, resulting in wasted time, money, and resources. And of course, teams differ in their preferred approaches. The primary goal should be to create deliverables that facilitate understanding and empathy towards users. Without reference, the exercise becomes pointless. The focus should be on maximizing user satisfaction and delivering valuable solutions. I always say...team dynamics also play a SIGNIFICANT role in achieving these objectives.
Thanks so much for uploading your videos! As a new designer (with an extensive background in the arts) I find your videos easy to follow and full of useful information! Thank you ! :)
Hi! This was super helpful! Thank you! Could you please do a video explaining more on the Case Study Slide Decks? Like what are they and how to construct one if possible?
I really like how you pointed out that while the angled iPhone screen images can be aesthetically pleasing, they're not the most practical for potential companies to clearly see the UI designs you want to show. I've always thought that it wasn't very practical when I look at portfolios and case studies on Dribble. Good example of looks pretty but not super practical.
Hi Sharon. I just wanted to say your videos for your transition into UX Design has honestly inspired me a ton. Im currently a Graphic Design undergrad and have just begun Google's UX design course to give me the boost to land a UX Design internship. Thanks so much for your useful posts, I wish you nothing but the best !! :)
Thank you so much for such a detailed video AND FOR THE MATERIALS that you provide for free! I literally never write comments, but your well structured video blue my mind so I couldn't resist breaking my pattern. Thank you again.
I love your videos because you show concrete examples and you are so organized. I would be very interested to see how you work in Figma using a concrete example(e.g., design system, naming and structuring your frames, components, libraries etc.) Your videos are so inspiring. Keep up the good work! Thanks!
Thank you for this video Sharon! This was so helpful to me while creating my own case studies. I'm transitioning to UX from Architecture currently. Would love to see a video on UX resume/CV tips as well!
Thank you for sharing! Sharon You are doing a great job! I am a self-taught UX Designer by completing Google Certificate, changing career path from science background. After that, I have been working as volunteer for NPO and participated some hackathon. It has been almost 1 year. I am still on my way to search my first job. Would like to connect you on linkedin. You are definitely role model to me! 💪🏻
Sharon! Thank you so much for sharing this video! I am at the stage where I mostly finished the case study but I got confused how to display my works that I finished in my portfolio. This video helped me a LOT! There are still times when many things are difficult and I'm not good at it, but I want to try my best to approach the finish line haha! I am taking the ux design course on the springboard so I am currently studying Figma on my own. Sometimes it's frustrating when I am spending toooo much time on a very small thing in Figma 😅😂 Could you share any tips or your experiences to get more familiar with Figma by any chance? I hope to hear your story about UI oneday! Again, thank you so much for today's video! ❤️
Glad it helped! And for Figma, seriously it’s going to take at least 2 months of u actively using it before it starts feeling easier. If you’re before that point, don’t sweat it. Learning curve comes with everythjng.
Thanks for sharing your amazing tips Sharon :) I learned a lot from your video! While walking through this video, I was wondering how you put a prototype video (figma file) on the website. Could you walk me through that? Thank you so much!
hi (again lol) sharon! i come back to this video often because of how helpful it is. I noticed that your portfolio and your Figma files are now blocked and require a password to access-- can I ask if you'll ever make them public again? they were so helpful with my journey as a ux designer and i referenced them often; it would be amazing if they could be accessible again
Hi! Yes- it’s because (although I understand) there have been many cases of plagiarism and intellectual theft for their job applications & class projects in university so I had to take it down to maintain & protect my work to ward off unethical behavior. It’s been my current project for the past month or so. Planning to relaunch in early 2024. Thanks for your patience.
The 📍 RAW ONNIT FIGMA PROJECT FILE is asking for a password? I'd really love to see the case study artifacts you made in Figma. I'm really struggling to design my own case study right now.
As a current Springboard student, I'm curious if you slimmed down your case studies to how they are currently displayed on your portfolio website. I found the single-scroll method makes them too slim to pass with flying colors for the Hiring Manager Review. Thanks, Sharon!
Thank you so much Sharon for your video! Now I,m thinking of creating a new case study for my portfolio, but I don,t know what type of website redesign, do you think is necessary to know in deep a website before doing a case study? I see some examples in Cofolios and some of them work inside the company and know the process inside the company. Thanks
Hey Sharon, really insightful video about UX case study structure, I tried to connect on LinkedIn but there was no option for me to send a note...Went to your portfolio site and noticed 2 things: 1. When I click on the thumbnail of that case study, it refreshed the current page instead of going to that case study page (might be a small bug I assume); 2. Design infographic in Figma and improve the readability is great, but with all the text in a image, will it decrease the chance that content being searched on the internet as all the text is embedded in the image? Thanks for the great content!
Hey Sharon, I’m super impressed with your videos, you’ve done a great job. I would like to be more clarified on using square space paid version. When you subscribe for monthly paid version on square space, do you need to keep paying on a monthly basis to continue using your website?
Hey! Yes I believe that is correct, you’ll get a warning if payment stops and maybe an extended month but beyond that I don’t think you can continue using your website
Sharon, could you tell me, how did you add a video prototype to the portfolio case study? How did you make your prototype be so interactive? Very grateful in advance !
Hello and thanks for the insightful video! I noticed on the home page of your website that whenever you click on your project image for ONNIT it just redirects back to your home page. Every other project image links to their respective case study page except for that specific one.
Thank you for sharing the details, Sharon. This is very helpful. My images for the hero section/cover images look pixelated in Squarespace. Do you have any tips for producing high-quality cover images?
hi! i saw you mentioned your figma file would be in the description but i dont see it - would love to look at that if you dont mind! these videos have helped me with building my first case study on my portfolio so thank you heaps !! :)
Hey! Oops sorry about that. Here’s the link but if not I also added it in the description www.figma.com/file/oCvKrMhjpkibUdkS4bz88f/20201101_UX-ONNIT-PROJECT?node-id=183%3A0
Hey there thanks for the content, super helpful with my first case study If I may ask, what was the font choice for the headings and small heading in this video? thank you !
Hey Sharon! Wanted to know what sort of resources ( textbooks, books etc) you used during your design learning journey. As someone who is completely new to design, your videos have helped me a lot
hi sharon! thank you for your super helpful tips as always. could you please share where you built your portfolio (wix, webflow, Squarespace, etc.)? I'm still really undecided on which one i want to go with. thanks so much :)
@@sharonyeunkim perfect thank you sm! could you briefly explain what made you choose Squarespace? did you ever consider webflow, and the fact that even though there's more of a learning curve, there's a lot more flexibility to make a portfolio really unique? (thank u again u have been the most helpful ux youtuber I've come across and I've been watching a concerning amount- )
@@sugaudacity aww thanks for the nice comment! Yeah webflow is def more advanced but if you're just starting I don't think it's necessary. I've been told from my FAANG mentor complexity isn't what's impressive (that's where your work comes in) but making your website clean and easy to navigate for recruiters :) squarespace did that hence that's why I chose them lol
Thank you so much for this video. It was so informative! I just have a question still: At the magazine I volunteer at, we’re switching from Squarespace to webflow so we’re revamping our whole site. There’s a lot of new features to solve our problem so I’m thinking of making separate case studies of two features. Is that a good idea?
love it love it, Subscribed!! Sharon, how long did it take for you to build these all? I mean the portfolio website and the case study and the case study deck etc. .
Hey Sharon! Thanks for the helpful content. I have a video request/ question for you - Do you have any important resume tips? I feel a lot of us struggle to get past the resume filtering bots in the first stage of hiring process.
Hey Sharon! Thanks for all these educational videos they are very helpful! I have one question - what do you think about doing internships after senior year in UX design? Thanks in advance!
No prob :) and whatever you can get, is good experience!! Might be a bit harder to get an internship after senior year, but definitely still worth trying. I’d consider UX grad school if you want an internship so being a student would qualify you for them. Usually you still have to be a student to have an internship
thank you so much, Sharon! this helps a lot! can you please provide the link for the Figma file, I could not find it in the description as mentioned in the video?
Hey! Oops sorry about that. Here’s the link but if not I also added it in the description www.figma.com/file/oCvKrMhjpkibUdkS4bz88f/20201101_UX-ONNIT-PROJECT?node-id=183%3A0

Super super helpful thank you! Please could you link the Figma file you made for this case study? I'm terrible at knowing sizing of different text/images!
Thank you so much for this Sharon! You have so many helpful tips! And you are so transparent! I am going back and making small improvements to my portfolio website. How do you add your app prototype videos to Squarespace? I have been on TH-cam searching for days and can't figure it out. I have screen recordings of my prototypes but I am stuck! :/

Hi Sharon, When making your case study slide deck for Onnit, did you design each presentation slide in Figma, then save as an image/ other format and place them in Google slides? I'm trying to find the most efficient route where I can design a beautiful case study and have it in slide form but also easily adapt it to my portfolio website. Thank you!
Hi Sharon! I just want to say I love love love your videos. Im currently in the middle of bootcamp. I feel confused and frustrated sometimes. Your videos are definitely big helps. I noticed the head image you used in HOMES FIRST case study has a gif effect, how did you create it? Thank you a lot!
Really enjoy your content, but can you please clarify that how did you get the users for your user interviews. Because as someone who's learning it by themselves finding the right people who fit in the user group and are willing to help is difficult.

I have a video request/ question for you - Do you have any important resume tips? I feel a lot of us struggle to get past the resume filtering bots in the first stage of hiring process.
Great stuff! Inspiring!
Do you have an example of the slide deck?
This is wonderful.
Great guidance 👍🏻❤
Thanks so much for this video
My pleasure :)
Hey Sharon! Thanks for all these educational videos they are very helpful! I have one question - what do you think about doing internships after senior year in UX design? Thanks in advance!
No prob :) and whatever you can get, is good experience!! Might be a bit harder to get an internship after senior year, but definitely still worth trying. I’d consider UX grad school if you want an internship so being a student would qualify you for them. Usually you still have to be a student to have an internship
Great video ,its really helpful👍
thank you so much, Sharon! this helps a lot! can you please provide the link for the Figma file, I could not find it in the description as mentioned in the video?
Hey! Oops sorry about that. Here’s the link but if not I also added it in the description www.figma.com/file/oCvKrMhjpkibUdkS4bz88f/20201101_UX-ONNIT-PROJECT?node-id=183%3A0

Super super helpful thank you! Please could you link the Figma file you made for this case study? I'm terrible at knowing sizing of different text/images!
It’s in the description box!
Thank you so much for this Sharon! You have so many helpful tips! And you are so transparent! I am going back and making small improvements to my portfolio website. How do you add your app prototype videos to Squarespace? I have been on TH-cam searching for days and can't figure it out. I have screen recordings of my prototypes but I am stuck! :/
I’m trying to figure it out myself too :(
Could you share an app or a program that you used to video record prototypes ?
@@consciousnessexplorer3549 This video saved me th-cam.com/video/MvZiPYUlH1c/w-d-xo.html I screen recorded through Quick Time Player on my Mac and then used this code in the above link to add an auto play version to my website! 👏🏾
Just saw this video. Loved the information! I tried going to your figma link and it is locked. Any way I could still get access to this?
Hello yes! Working on it as there have been some issues. Hoping to release it again soon.
Hi Sharon, When making your case study slide deck for Onnit, did you design each presentation slide in Figma, then save as an image/ other format and place them in Google slides? I'm trying to find the most efficient route where I can design a beautiful case study and have it in slide form but also easily adapt it to my portfolio website. Thank you!
All your videos are gold. I really appreciate them x
Hi Sharon! I just want to say I love love love your videos. Im currently in the middle of bootcamp. I feel confused and frustrated sometimes. Your videos are definitely big helps. I noticed the head image you used in HOMES FIRST case study has a gif effect, how did you create it? Thank you a lot!
it was very insightful, thanks)
@sharonyeunkim Amazing video Sharon. By the way we couldn't view your portfolio. It shows private site.
I’m redoing my portfolio website :) hope to be up by the new year.
Thanks for this❣
How did you make the scroll back to top red? :D
Thank you
My pleasure ❤️
Really enjoy your content, but can you please clarify that how did you get the users for your user interviews. Because as someone who's learning it by themselves finding the right people who fit in the user group and are willing to help is difficult.
If it’s not friends or family, you most likely would need a financial incentive so in that case, post on LinkedIn and offer compensation.
