59:50 Behavioural and Situational Questions
1:13:44 Question & Answer Portion
1:14:49 What is the best way to answer the question: how many years experience have you had as a UX Designer?
1:18:52 If your interview has already read your portfolio and you have to give a portfolio presentation, how much detail should you go into for that presentation?
1:20:35 If you come from another design background, do you think it is relevant to bring the portfolio of that design background?
1:22:04 When answering the soft skills questions, what if you have never experienced that situation? How should you answer?
1:23:57 What are some of the good example questions to understand the design maturity of the company I'm interviewing for?
1:24:55 Do you have any tips for preparing for the next stage i.e. a design challenge.
1:26:31 How do we showcase project results in our portfolio for which we haven't gotten the final ROI or feedback from customers?
1:29:19 I wonder if a design review interview is the same as a design critique interview?
1:30:40 If someone wanted to get into a UX career, but haven't done any design jobs. How would you recommend using other experience as a positive in the interview?
1:32:24 Beyond the great portfolio and technical skills, what advice would you give me about how to best prepare for a job interview?
1:37:34 What are some good questions you would recommend asking the interviewers at the end of the interview?
1:39:16 What about when you have a different professional background that is not directly related to UX, what sort of questions do we need to be ready for that allows the interviewer to check the candidate's certain soft skills required for the position?
1:42:48 Do you think a science degree could be leveraged as a strength?
1:45:09 How many possibilities can realistically someone have to get a junior position with 6 months of experience, a big gap, and zig zag choices in their career history?
1:47:36 I plan to career transition into UX design bringing with me tons of transferrable soft skills but close to relevant UX experience. Should I acquire some formal learning/training/qualification before I apply for any junior UX roles? Or apply anyway and see what kind of feedback I receive from the hiring managers?
1:51:43 Do you prefer people who have experience in Figma/Adobe XD or are willing to learn?
1:53:29 How do you answer questions about pay expectations especially when transitioning from a different field where you may have been in a higher earning threshold and now going for a junior role?
1:54:32 What are some of the most memorable questions that candidates have thrown back at you during an interview?
1:56:36 Should you include a project in your portfolio that failed completely but you learned from it?
1:57:14 Design review might be reviewing your design and design critique might be critiquing another person's work?
1:58:59 How honest should you be about your weaknesses if you're less strong in something areas of UX design?
1:59:56 Is it possible to apply for a UX position without a portfolio when you come from a design background or will that be a very unfavourable approach?
2:01:35 How many projects for a portfolio?
