UX+1 Podcast Ep5: Day In The Life Vlogs +1 Scott Smith
Do a quick search on Youtube for "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" and you'll get an idea of how I feel about vlogs where people video themselves and their "typical workday" as a UX Designer. They create a false and fetishized portrayal of what it means to have a job in this discipline, and me and my cohosts tear the idea apart.
Our +1 Scott joins us to chat about the twists and frustrations we went through to land his first job. We originally were going to help Scott with his materials, but his fortune changed the very day we recorded this.
