Let’s get real for a second.
Most UX designers I talk to are not lazy.
They’re working hard on their job search.
→ 2–3 hours a day tweaking portfolios
→ Dozens of job applications
→ Endless tabs open with “UX hiring tips”
→ Feeling exhausted, demoralized, burnt out
And still… no traction.
Here’s the shift you need:
Hard work ≠ forward movement.
Right work → momentum.
If your strategy is broken, no amount of effort will fix it.
The old advice says:
→ Just apply to more roles
→ Just send more portfolios
→ Just keep waiting, your time will come
That’s line fishing.
That’s hope-based job hunting.
What you need is a Career GPS.
→ Get crystal clear on your positioning
→ Know exactly who you’re targeting
→ Build the kind of pitch that lands interviews, not silence
That’s what we do inside UX Careerpreneurs.
You’ll learn:
→ Why most UX portfolios get ignored (and how to fix yours)
→ How to reverse-engineer your dream job starting with you, not the market
→ How to get in front of hiring managers—without being salesy or awkward
We’ve got 7 spots left.
This isn’t for everyone.
It’s for committed UX professionals who want to stop playing the numbers game and start playing the strategy game.
Reply to this email with “SPEAR” and I’ll send over the private Google Doc with all the details.
I want you to land, not just search.
