NN/g UX Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I really enjoyed this episode and got a lot out of it BUT the way they speak about salary is INCREDIBLY privileged. Being able to look beyond salary is a privilege many folks do. Not. Have. Especially right now!!!

Many career switchers are likely uprooting their lives due not only to frustration but because they’re in pursuit of a better future for themselves. It does those who are careens switching a disservice to speak about salary in such abstract terms as if it’s something we’re “fixating on unnecessarily” and not because money isn’t equal to SURVIVAL in our country right now. Money (or lack of it) costs people DEARLY and it’s hurtful to speak about it like it’s some kind of perk.

As someone who’s been working on my career switch to UX for a couple of years, I was delighted to hear this program’s honest but encouraging tone. In the “UX Career Pathways” ep, they spoke about the need to cultivate more UX talent, not lock people out! They specifically emphasized that “gatekeeper” types should be helping more junior practitioners grow, and the legitimacy of many different backgrounds. Happy to keep learning and growing with the help of NNg! Excellent podcast.

This is my favorite UX podcast, topics discussed here have helped me in interviews, so thank you! Lol

I would love if episodes went out more often, doesn’t have to be interviews if that’s too much to set up weekly, could even just discuss interesting articles that are published.
