Every week, I talk to UX designers who tell me:
“I don’t have time for networking.”
“I can’t do strategic outreach—it takes too long.”
“I just need to apply to more jobs.”
Then I ask them how they’re actually spending their time.
❌ Scrolling job boards
❌ Auto-applying to 50+ jobs a week
❌ Tweaking their resume for every new listing
❌ Checking emails, waiting for responses that never come
That’s not job searching. That’s busy work.
The problem isn’t a lack of time. It’s that most UXers are doing job hunting the hardest way possible.
Here’s what happens when you flip the approach:
✅ Spend 3 focused hours a week on targeted outreach
✅ Get direct connections to hiring managers
✅ Book real interviews instead of sending blind applications
That’s exactly how my clients land jobs faster—with less effort.
Case in point:
Gary was spending months mass-applying. Zero traction. We switched him to a simple 3-hour-a-week system:
1 hour: Identifying decision-makers at his dream companies
1 hour: Sending targeted, personalized messages
1 hour: Following up strategically
Within 2 weeks, he had 5 interviews lined up.
You’re already putting in the hours. The real question is: Are you spending them wisely?
If you’re ready to stop wasting time and start making real progress, DM me “3HOURS” and I’ll share the exact system that works.
