John is a go-to friend mentor who has superpowers! I felt very empowered and encouraged to whatever challenges in front of me. His advice with a ton of his personal examples on breaking into product design and what skills to focus on during the interview, onboarding, and different phases was incredibly helpful.

Your book is great! I ordered and read it and there’s some pure gold in it! I work with clients who are feeling stuck in their UX career but many of them just need to change their job before they are ready to work with, so I recommend your book to them!

I purchased "Landing a Design Job with Confidence" and I've been thoroughly enjoying it. The tips provided in the book are fantastic! I particularly appreciate the insights on portfolio presentation, interview strategies, and the overall flow of information. As I explore new opportunities in UI/UX design, I'm excited to implement the valuable lessons I'm learning from the book.

Having trouble landing a design job?I'd highly recommend checking out “Landing a Design Job with Confidence” from John Rodrigues.It’s jam packed with strategies based on research, not just pontification.Some of my favorite passages from the book:
“I used to have a goal of applying for 30 jobs a day. When I reached 15 applications, I’d play some guitar and do some gaming. That kept me motivated to reach my daily applying goals.”
Yes! Making the process fun can help you get through what might otherwise be a drag.
“People don’t only hire you solely for your skills but also for your personality as well as culture fit. Some of them also call it a vibe check. So, bring some of that into your portfolio.”
This is one of my most common tips too: show them who you are.
“When faced with questions to which you don’t know the answer, don’t lose confidence. Instead, confidently admit, ‘I am not aware of this, but here is the approach or process I would take.’”
I’m a big fan of scripts and examples like these. The book is full of them!
This isn’t a sponsored post or anything. I’m just grateful to John for some great coaching he did with me recently and wanted to spread the love for his book.
