Alumni Career Advisor @Ux Design Institute

Experienced UX Career Advisor | Strategic Support for Alumni | Achieving 82% Job Placement Rate 20••••22 | Achieving 79% Job Placement Rate 20••••23 (despite extremely adverse market conditions) As an accomplished UX Career Advisor, I specialize in guiding and empowering alumni during the crucial early stages of their careers. My primary objective is to provide comprehensive support, optimizing their professional portfolios, refining CVs, preparing them for interviews, and developing strategic career plans. By leveraging my expertise and dedication, I have successfully facilitated an outstanding 82% job placement rate for engaged alumni within just six months of completing the UX Design Institute course. Additionally, over half (54%) of our alumni have realised salary increases following their utilisation of our services. My exceptional Customer Satisfaction (CSAT) score of 89% reflects the high-quality support I consistently deliver. At UX Design Institute, I spearheaded the creation and ongoing management of a monthly webinar series, covering a diverse range of career-oriented topics such as portfolio development and interview strategies. These webinars have provided invaluable insights and guidance to our alumni community. Recognising the need to cultivate an exceptional pool of UX professionals, I actively contributed to the establishment of the Hire Our Alumni program. This pioneering initiative enables growing businesses to access a passive pipeline of qualified UX candidates, ensuring a consistent supply of top talent.
