Leveraging your past experience in job applications
Identify skills, experience, accolades from your past experiences that are valuable in UX.
For example, before I had UX experience, I highlighted:
- Problem-solving from my customer service job
- Communication skills honed in my restaurant work
- Creative thinking from my hobby in graphic design
More industry-based example:
- Brand Ambassador — speaking to customer regularly and developed skills in XYZ
- Sales Manager — results-driven, achieved XYZ and developed skills in XYZ
- Flight Attendant — stakeholder management, and developed skills in XYZ
