UX design is booming with AI, AR/VR, and voice tech enhancing personalization and interactivity. Designers must embrace these to create meaningful, innovative user experiences while keeping the human touch.

Spoiler alert, the short answer is yes, I think most UX designers need a portfolio to get recognition from potential employers or gigs. However this is an aging technique and hard it is becoming harder to stand out in all the noise.

Seems not to be the best time to do this with the corona-virus impact on business and people losing their jobs.

I recently did a podcast on "How to be a Product Designer in South Africa". This has been something I have been meaning to talk about on the podcast and the blog. With all the UX/UI job descriptions I see every day and how they are just glorified graphic design jobs, the question is how do you make out the difference in UX/UI and Product design roles.

The UX designer role in South Africa is often confused with what we call the "UX/UI" role. This misleads a lot of humans who want to get into the career on what experience design is about.
