3 ways to get hands-on experience in UX

  • Offer your skills for free by designing websites or apps for your network, or volunteer for charities and non-profit organizations.
  • Practice with design challenges, do unsolicited redesigns of apps, or work on a side project with friends.
  • Analyse interactive elements in apps and websites you use, conduct small-scale usability tests, and learn the basics of visual design.
There’s no shortcut—just dive in and start designing!
