In recent years, UI designer employment is really difficult, because it is a low-threshold position, before, many students with zero foundation and change of career through a few months of systematic learning, can have the initial working ability. This has led many students to choose to learn UI design to realize the dream of entering the Internet industry to get a high salary, but this dream is becoming more and more difficult to realize.
After more than a decade of rapid development, the Internet industry is basically saturated (this year there are a lot of company closures, layoffs), this 10 years there have been a lot of people into the industry, the pit is so much, a lot of students with design backgrounds want to be UI designers, zero basis to switch to study a few months, by what and others to compete? According to the "Talent Migration and Mobility Trend Report 2020" released by Pulse, the Internet in various positions, the designer position is the most competitive.
Many people think that the designer has no future there is another reason, that is, the designer upward growth ceiling is too low, the apex of the designer is a senior designer or with a few people on the team, a lifetime can not escape the situation of drawing. This idea is also wrong.
We have a lot of choices when it comes to employment, whether it's UI, interaction, product, or operations, it's just an entry point into the Internet industry, and we have to work hard to continue to grow upwards after we enter the workplace. If you are a UI designer when you first start your career, and you are still a UI designer 10 years later, you will naturally feel that you have no future. In fact, we have more choices.
