Podcasts about product designers

If you're sending dozens of applications per day and you aren't hearing back, this podcast is for you.Carlos was applying to dozens of UX jobs a day, swiping through listings like a job board version of a dating app, and hearing almost nothing back. Out of hundreds of applications, he got two responses and both were rejections, but he knew he was a good designer.In this episode, Carlos shares how he went from mass applying with no traction to landing a product designer role at Covenant Eyes and then getting promoted to senior product designer within the same year. He talks about what changed when he stopped treating the job search like a numbers game, how he used the same frameworks he learned in Career Strategy Lab to make his case for a promotion once he got there.Topics Discussed:✅ Why mass applying isn't productive and what to do instead✅ How to use the skills from your job search to land a promotion✅ Why confidence in interviews matters more than having a perfect portfolio✅ A portfolio website vs a portfolio presentation✅ How research a hiring manager before your interview helps you stand out✅ How the skills you learn during your job search transfer directly into your work after being hired✅ Why waiting until you feel confident enough to start is the wrong approachLinks From This Episode:

Depuis quelques mois, j'entends de plus en plus cette phrase chez des designers expérimentés :“Je crois que je n'ai plus envie de faire ce métier.”Dans cet épisode, je te parle d'Élodie, UX Designer Senior dans depuis 17 ans, et de Xavier, UI Designer Senior qui commence sérieusement à regarder des métiers complètement différents du design.Parce qu'aujourd'hui, beaucoup de designers seniors ne sont pas juste fatigués.Le vrai sujet est souvent beaucoup plus profond.Dans cet épisode, je t'explique :pourquoi certains designers commencent progressivement à décrocher émotionnellementce qui use mentalement après 10 ou 15 ans de métierpourquoi certains ne se reconnaissent plus dans leur manière actuelle de travaillerpourquoi les changements du marché créent autant d'anxiétéet pourquoi beaucoup de designers n'ont jamais vraiment pris le temps de se demander ce qu'ils veulent encore construire aujourd'huiJe parle aussi de Clément, qui est arrivé dans l'accompagnement complètement vidé, et de la manière dont il a progressivement retrouvé une direction plus claire.À la fin de l'épisode, je vais aussi partager une idée importante : parfois, le problème n'est pas le métier … mais le contexte dans lequel tu l'exerces depuis trop longtemps.Ce que tu vas comprendre dans cet épisode : Pourquoi certains designers seniors perdent progressivement le lien avec leur métierCe qui fatigue profondément après plusieurs années dans le design produitPourquoi beaucoup continuent “en automatique”Pourquoi certains regardent des métiers totalement différentsCe qui crée aujourd'hui autant de fatigue mentale dans les équipes designEt pourquoi reprendre du recul devient indispensable après plusieurs années de métier.Aujourd'hui, les vraies questions sont :est-ce que tu es encore connecté à ce que tu fais ?est-ce que tu continues par envie … ou seulement par habitude ?dans quels contextes tu ne veux plus travailler ?qu'est-ce que tu aimerais encore défendre aujourd'hui dans ton métier ?Si tu t'es reconnu dans cet épisode, ne reste pas seul avec ça.Je propose des accompagnements pour t'aider à débloquer concrètement ton portfolio et ta recherche.Contacte-moi en DM sur Linkedin : ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurentgallen/⁠UX Design, UI Design, Product Design, Designer Senior, Carrière Designer, Fatigue professionnelle, Recherche emploi UX, UX Podcast, Podcast Design, Design+, Laurent Gallen, UX Career, Product Designer, UI Designer, UX Designer, Design Leadership, Repositionnement professionnel, Burnout, Designer, Recherche emploi, Design carrière, LinkedIn DesignerDesign + est le podcast pour tous les designers UX, UI et Product.Dans la saison 12, on remet les pendules à l'heure sur ta carrière, sur ton positionnement et ton rapport au travail.

Tu peux avoir :10 ans de métierdes projets sérieuxdes dizaines d'expériencesde vraies responsabilités… et avoir malgré tout l'impression que plus personne ne te remarque.Dans cet épisode, je te parle de Mathieu, Product Designer senior depuis plus de 12 ans, et de Nadia, UX/UI Designer senior qui s'est adaptée à tellement de contextes différents qu'elle a fini par devenir floue professionnellement.Parce qu'aujourd'hui, beaucoup de designers seniors ne manquent pas de compétences.Le vrai problème est ailleurs.À force de :vouloir tout montrerparler à tout le mondes'adapter à tous les contextesaccumuler les rôles et les missions… certains deviennent progressivement interchangeables.Dans cet épisode, je t'explique :pourquoi certains designers seniors deviennent invisibles malgré leurs années de métierpourquoi beaucoup de portfolios et profils finissent par tous se ressemblerce que les personnes qui lisent les candidatures essaient réellement de comprendre rapidementpourquoi la polyvalence peut parfois devenir un piègeet comment redevenir lisible professionnellement sans tomber dans le bullshit LinkedInÀ la fin de l'épisode, je vais aussi partager une idée très simple… mais qui peut complètement changer la manière dont tu te présentes aujourd'hui.Aujourd'hui :est-ce qu'on comprend vraiment ce que tu apportes ?est-ce que ton parcours raconte une direction claire ?est-ce que tu t'adaptes tellement que tu finis par devenir flou ?est-ce que ta candidature te distinguera vraiment des autres designers expérimentés ?Si tu t'es reconnu dans cet épisode, ne reste pas seul avec ça.

Tu retravailles ton portfolio depuis des semaines. Tu modifies ton CV.Tu testes de nouveaux outils IA.Tu réécris ton profil LinkedIn.Et pourtant… rien ne bouge vraiment ! Dans cet épisode, je te parle de David, Designer Produit Senior et Directeur Artistique Senior avec 18 ans de métier.Comme beaucoup de designers expérimentés aujourd'hui, il cherche à refaire ses supports avant même de savoir ce qu'il veut vraiment raconter.Je te parle aussi de Sophie, UX Designer senior, qui a déjà refait son portfolio 4 fois en quelques mois … sans réussir à sortir du flou.Parce qu'au fond, le problème n'est pas toujours le portfolio.Parfois :tu ne sais plus comment te présentertu ne sais plus ce que tu veux vraimenttu as accumulé trop de rôles, trop de compétences, trop de directions différenteset tu essayes de résoudre ça avec des outils, des templates ou de l'IADans cet épisode, je t'explique :- pourquoi beaucoup de designers seniors retravaillent “la peinture” avant les fondations- ce qui bloque réellement derrière certains portfolios- pourquoi le marché devient plus difficile quand ton parcours devient flou- ce que les personnes qui regardent ton dossier cherchent à comprendre rapidementET SURTOUT dans quel ordre retravailler les choses pour éviter de tourner en rond pendant encore plusieurs mois.

Tu le vois.Tu le sais.Tu l'as déjà ressenti plusieurs fois.Mais tu continues quand même ! Tu continues à envoyer des candidatures sans réponse. Tu continues à ajuster des détails qui ne changent rien. Tu continues à espérer et tu te dis : “ça finira par passer”.Et pendant ce temps-là, rien ne bouge ! Le vrai problème, c'est que plus tu continues … plus tu t'éloignes de ce qui pourrait vraiment marcher.Dans cet épisode, on va mettre un mot sur ce que tu vis vraiment :- Pourquoi tu restes bloqué alors que tu sais que ça ne fonctionne pas- Ce mécanisme mental qui te pousse à répéter les mêmes actions- Et surtout, comment sortir de cette boucle sans tout remettre en questionTu vas comprendre pourquoi :- Ce n'est pas un problème de motivation- Ce n'est pas un manque d'effort- Et ce n'est même pas une question de compétenceC'est un problème de lucidité … et de positionnement.Je te partage aussi des situations concrètes que j'observe chez les designers que j'accompagne :Camille, Product Designer, qui postule depuis 3 mois sans retour. Karim, UX Designer expérimenté, qui retravaille son portfolio sans comprendre pourquoi ça bloque. Ils savent que ça ne marche pas.Mais ils ne savent pas quoi changer.À la fin de cet épisode, tu vas pouvoir :- Identifier précisément ce qui ne fonctionne pas dans ta démarche- Comprendre pourquoi tu restes bloqué malgré toi.Et surtout, prendre une décision claire pour arrêter de tourner en rond. Si tu es en recherche, ou simplement frustré∙e par l'impact de ton portfolio aujourd'hui, cet épisode va te faire gagner du temps !

O papel do Product Designer está passando por uma das maiores transformações da história, impulsionada pela evolução da inteligência artificial. Neste episódio, conversei com Gui Seiz, Diretor de Design de IA no Figma, sobre como a profissão tem mudado de forma acelerada e o que isso significa na prática para quem atua na área. Falamos sobre as principais mudanças nos últimos anos, o que realmente define um Product Designer hoje e os principais equívocos que ainda existem sobre essa nova fase do design.Também exploramos como o Figma tem contribuído para essa transformação com novas formas de construir produtos, incluindo iniciativas como o Figma Make, além do que podemos esperar do futuro da ferramenta. Um papo direto com quem está ajudando a moldar o futuro do design, trazendo reflexões importantes sobre o que designers precisam aprender, como se adaptar e como enxergar a IA como aliada nesse novo cenário.

Pourquoi ta carrière de designer n'avance plusTu travailles.Tu progresses.Tu livres des projets.Et pourtant…tu as l'impression que ta carrière n'avance plus.Dans cet épisode, je te parle d'un blocage que je vois très souvent chez les designers expérimentés.Pas chez les juniors.Pas chez les débutants.Chez celles et ceux qui ont déjà 7,8, 10, parfois 15 ans d'expérience…mais qui n'arrivent plus à passer un cap.Je te parle de Mathieu.34 ans.Product Designer depuis plus de 12 ans.Sur le papier, tout est ok.Mais dans la réalité…il avance… sans vraiment savoir où il va.Je te parle aussi de Julie et de Damien. Des profils seniors, sérieux et impliquésMais qui vivent la même chose :→ pas de direction claire→ un parcours difficile à lire→ un portfolio qui ne reflète plus leur niveauDans cet épisode, je t'explique :– pourquoi tu peux stagner même en faisant “tout bien”– pourquoi accumuler des projets ne suffit plus– ce que les recruteurs perçoivent (sans forcément le dire)– et surtout… pourquoi le problème n'est pas ton portfolioParce que le vrai sujet, ce n'est pas ce que tu montres.C'est la trajectoire derrière.Si aujourd'hui tu doutes,si tu te poses des questions,ou si tu sens que quelque chose bloque…Alors cet épisode va t'aider à mettre des mots précis sur ta situation.Écoute le maintenant sur ta plateforme préférée.Si tu veux en parler, envoie-moi un message sur LinkedIn.On regarde ensemble où ça bloque pour toi.portfolio, designer carrière, emploi design, UXproduct designer, senior recrutement design, évolution carrière designer, portfolio UX, blocage carrière designer expérimenté– Pourquoi ta carrière de designer n'avance plus malgré ton expérience – Designer senior : comprendre pourquoi tu stagnes aujourd'hui– Portfolio et carrière : ce qui bloque vraiment ton évolutionDesign + est le podcast pour tous les designers UX, UI et Product.Avec la saison 12, je t'aide à retrouver de la clarté dans ta carrière, ton positionnement et ton rapport au travail.

Conoce mi escuela en: https://escuelatribux.com/Referencias del episodio en: https://pildorasux.com/203/Entrevisto al diseñador Alejandro Magro, autor del libro «Ser Product Designer» una guía muy completa sobre diseño de producto digital en español. En este episodio puedes escuchar todo lo que viene a contarnos sobre su libro y nuestra profesión.Además si formas parte de mi membresía de tribUX, Alejandro vino al Club del libro y pudimos preguntarle algunos temas muy interesante (entra a ver la grabación).

Ton portfolio montre-t-il vraiment ton niveau ?C'est une question que je pose souvent aux designers avec 8, 10 ou 15 ans d'expérience.Et la réponse est rarement confortable.Ces derniers mois, j'ai analysé des dizaines de portfolios de designers expérimentés.Et je vois souvent la même chose :des projets intéressants…mais un portfolio qui ressemble encore à un simple book de projets.Un portfolio qui montre ce que tu as faitmais pas ce que tu as réellement changé.Dans cet épisode, je t'explique :→ pourquoi beaucoup de portfolios de designers expérimentés ne reflètent pas leur niveau→ ce que les recruteurs cherchent vraiment en moins de 30 secondes→ les erreurs que je vois le plus souvent dans les portfolios seniors→ et comment transformer ton portfolio en outil stratégique pour ta carrièreJe partage aussi plusieurs situations concrètes vécues avec des designers que j'ai accompagnés.Par exemple Maurane, qui expliquait :« J'avais besoin de clarifier la direction que je voulais donner à la suite de ma carrière et trouver la manière la plus juste d'y parvenir. » Ou Stéphane, qui disait très simplement :« Avant de travailler avec Laurent, mon portfolio était un simple patchwork de projets sans réelle cohérence. » Le problème n'est presque jamais le niveau des designers.Le vrai problème, c'est la manière dont ils racontent leur travail.Et c'est exactement ce dont on parle dans cet épisode.

UX Designer ou Product Designer? Essa é uma dúvida muito comum dentro do mercado de design, principalmente para quem está tentando entender como se posicionar na carreira. Neste episódio do Papo Reto, eu trago uma reflexão clara sobre as diferenças entre esses dois títulos e por que essa confusão existe.Ao longo da reflexão, explico o que caracteriza o papel de UX Designer, um profissional focado em compreender comportamento, necessidades e a jornada completa do usuário, indo muito além do desenho de telas. Também exploro como o termo Product Designer ganhou força nas empresas de tecnologia, geralmente representando alguém que atua de ponta a ponta no ciclo do produto, conectando experiência do usuário, estratégia de negócio e colaboração com engenharia e produto.Mas a discussão vai além das nomenclaturas. Falo sobre como, na prática, muitas empresas usam os dois títulos para funções muito semelhantes, e como a diferença real costuma estar na forma como cada organização estrutura seus times e enxerga o papel do design dentro do desenvolvimento de produtos.Esse episódio é um convite para diminuir a ansiedade em torno dos títulos e focar no que realmente importa: o impacto que o design gera para as pessoas e para o negócio. No final das contas, o usuário não sabe se quem projetou a solução é UX Designer ou Product Designer. Ele apenas percebe se teve ou não uma boa experiência.Mentoria Luan Mateus ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mentoria.papodeux.com.br⁠⁠⁠⁠News do Papo ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://papodeux.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://instagram.com/papodeux/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@papodeux⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

A inteligência artificial está mudando profundamente a forma como designers pensam, trabalham e constroem suas carreiras. Neste episódio, conversei com William de Almeida sobre como a IA vem recriando o design, indo muito além da automação de processos. Falamos sobre o impacto real da IA no dia a dia de Product Designers, seu uso na geração de ideias e soluções, e como essa aceleração tem mudado a forma de estudar, focar e planejar a carreira. Também discutimos quais habilidades técnicas ganham mais relevância nesse novo cenário, os cuidados éticos no uso da IA e se desenhar e prototipar continuam sendo diferenciais quando a tecnologia já faz parte dessas entregas. Um papo provocador sobre presente e futuro do design em um mundo cada vez mais orientado por inteligência artificial.

Pourquoi des designers expérimentés, parfois seniors, n'ont plus aucun retour sur leurs candidatures ?Pourquoi des portfolios “propres”, bien construits, semblent soudain inefficaces ?Et surtout : comment les recruteurs prennent réellement leurs décisions aujourd'hui ?Dans cet épisode en solo de Design+, je te propose une lecture lucide et calme du marché actuel du design UX, UI et Product.Sans drama. Sans discours alarmiste. Sans promesse miracle.Je m'appuie sur ce que je vois tous les jours et sur des articles récents :des designers expérimentés qui postulent, ajustent leur portfolio, envoient des dizaines de candidatures… et ne comprennent plus ce qui bloque.Tout au long de l'épisode, je te parle de Mathieu. Il a 34 ans et il est Product Designer senior depuis plus de 12 ans. Il a un parcours solide, des projets sérieux et il a de vraies responsabilités.Et pourtant, aujourd'hui, Mathieu n'obtient plus de réponses.Pourquoi ?- Pas parce qu'il est mauvais.- Pas parce que son portfolio est “nul”.Mais parce que les règles du jeu ont changé.Aujourd'hui, le recrutement design n'est plus un espace d'exploration.C'est un processus défensif, rapide, sous contrainte.Les recruteurs reçoivent beaucoup de candidatures, ont peu de temps, et doivent surtout réduire le risque.Dans cet épisode, je t'explique :- comment une candidature est réellement analysée (souvent en quelques dizaines de secondes),- pourquoi le portfolio est devenu un outil de tri, pas un support de discussion,- quels signaux les recruteurs cherchent vraiment,- et pourquoi un “bon portfolio” ne déclenche pas forcément un entretien.On parle aussi de trajectoire.Parce que le vrai sujet n'est pas seulement ce que tu montres, mais ce que ton parcours raconte, ou ne raconte pas.Tu entendras pourquoi :- des designers seniors peuvent passer pour “mid” sans s'en rendre compte,- des parcours riches deviennent illisibles,- et pourquoi envoyer toujours plus de candidatures n'est souvent pas la bonne réponse.Cet épisode ne te donne pas une méthode clé en main.Il t'aide à mieux voir, à comprendre où ça bloque vraiment, et à reprendre de la lucidité sur ta situation.En fin d'épisode, je te pose 2 questions simples, mais 100% efficaces et intransigeantes. Designers UX, UI et ProductDesigners expérimentés ou seniorsDesigners en recherche d'emploi ou en questionnement de carrièreDesigners qui doutent de leur positionnement sans toujours savoir pourquoi- Comment les recruteurs analysent un portfolio de designer aujourd'hui- Pourquoi les designers expérimentés n'obtiennent plus d'entretiens- Comprendre les décisions de recrutement en UX et Product Designrecrutement design, portfolio UX, carrière designer, Product Designer, entretien UX, marché du design, recrutement techDesign + est le podcast pour tous les designers UX, UI et Product.Avec la saison 12, on t'aide à retrouver de la clarté dans ta carrière, dans ton positionnement et ton rapport au travail.

AI for Designers: 5-week Bootcamp

Chuck E. Cheese is still alive, and so is the analytics-to-product pipeline. @Amanda Cesario analytics lead turned product leader, joins @Phillip Black, Eric, and @Christopher Kaczmarczyk-Smith argue for embedded analytics, sharper language, and game systems that actually produce cooperation instead of a cosplay community. We discuss: • The missing vocabulary for economy design in live service, and how it's harmed the entire industry• Why office ball pits best start-up ping pong tables • The analyst's real job: explaining “why,” then realizing the only way to fix it is to own the lever • Embedded analytics vs centralized service orgs; who beats who • Roblox as a laboratory: aspirational visibility, server “neighborhoods,” and system norms that communicate more than art • Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma, Axelrod's tournaments, and why tit-for-tat is a design principle • Monopoly Go partner events as rare, genuine, cooperation-through-repeated-interaction design • Why Discovery Zone died, but Chuck E.

Dmitry Zlokazov is the head of product at Revolut, the $45 billion fintech giant operating in over 50 countries, serving more than 50 million customers, and producing some of the world's top product leaders. Dmitry shares his hard-won lessons, contrarian org design principles, and day-to-day practices that power Revolut's relentless shipping velocity, culture of ownership, and unparalleled “wow” product experience.What you'll learn:1. Revolut's unique organizational approach, where “product owners” manage cross-functional pods as “local CEOs,” with genuine end-to-end ownership and hiring/firing power2. How a radical, ultra-flat structure enables more than 150 product owners to maintain founder-level quality and velocity across dozens of parallel launches3. How Revolut maintains quality while shipping hundreds of features across over 50 countries4. Why Revolut favors “raw intellect and hunger” over experience, and how internal transfers (including ex-engineers and ops managers) become the company's most successful product leaders5. How Revolut's founders review every single UI shipped, and why this founder detail obsession scales rather than limits innovation6. Their framework for launching new products—from ideation, validation, and first user cohort to rapid “algorithmization” and scaling across countries7.

In this episode, I tests Polymet AI, an AI product designer tool, by creating a YouTube analytics prediction SaaS concept inspired by a viral tweet about predicting tweet performance. I compares Polymet AI with V0, noting that while Polymet required multiple prompts and offered less feedback during the design process, both tools ultimately produced usable designs. I concludes that different AI tools have different strengths, and using multiple tools in combination might yield the best results.Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro02:33 - First Impressions of Polymet03:57 - Startup Idea: Predicting YouTube Engagement05:03 - Initial Design Prompt10:11 - Polymet's First Design Output: TubePredict11:04 - UI and Functionality Issues and Debugging16:08 - Polymet's Second Design Output17:44 - Debugging pt 220:48 - Prompting v0 22:30 - v0's Design Output 23:41 - Polymet's Third Design Output24:49 - Comparing v0 and Polymer and Final Thoughts on Design Outputs27:36 - Conclusion and Recommendations for AI Design ToolsKey Points• I tests Polymet AI a new AI product designer tool that claims to help non-designers create production-ready designs• I compares Polymet AI with v0, a similar tool he's used before, by designing a YouTube analytics prediction tool• Both tools produced functional designs, but with different user experiences and output quality1) First impressions of Polymet AI:• Clean interface similar to ChatGPT• Includes voice input (huge plus!)• Image upload capability for reference designs• Credit-based system (250 free credits to start)• 50 credits per page generation2) The design process with Polymet was... interesting.PROS:• Named the product "TubePredict" automatically• Created decent landing page copy• Saved version historyCONS:• Slow generation (2+ minutes)• No progress indicator (frustrating!)• Initial designs missed the mark completely 3) After 3 attempts with increasingly specific prompts, Polymet finally delivered:• Clean, modern interface• Detailed A/B testing dashboard• Statistical confidence indicators• AI suggestions for optimizationBut the communication was ONE-WAY. No feedback loop!4) Meanwhile, v0 showed its strengths:• Real-time reasoning as it designed• Conversational approach ("I'll create a SaaS that...")• Faster FEELING process (transparency helps!)• Ability to ask clarifying questionsThe difference in experience was NIGHT and DAY.5) The final designs were surprisingly similar in quality!Polymet's strengths:• More detailed product features• Hover states built in• Actual code generationv0's advantages:• Slightly more polished visually• More "glassy" as requested• Better feedback loop6) MAJOR INSIGHT: The future isn't about finding ONE perfect AI design tool.It's about using MULTIPLE tools strategically:• Generate initial concepts in one• Refine in another• Mix and match their strengthsJust like we do with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.7) The REAL lesson? Knowing design terminology matters!When I specifically requested "glassmorphism" instead of just saying "glassy," both tools performed MUCH better.The more precise your design vocabulary, the better your AI design results.8) Would I recommend these tools? YES - but with expectations in check.Two years ago this would have been MIND-BLOWING.Today, our standards are higher.But for quick prototyping or inspiration, both tools deliver value in different ways.Notable Quotes:"Two years ago, if I would have seen this, I would have been like, 'Oh my God, everything has changed.' And now our bar for all these AI products is so high that the output needs to be incredible for you to really use it in your workflow.""How do you get the most out of them is just you use all of them, you realize what's best for each individual product... There's these nuances that make these products better."Want more free ideas? I collect the best ideas from the pod and give them to you for free in a database.
