Reflection - This lecture really got me thinking about who I am and what I’m looking for. It was a really interesting day, to get to think about how a design interview will be different than will be different than any other I have ever had. I think most of us in the class have done an interview before, but they have mostly been very general versions that aren't as specific as one to be a UX designer or product designer.

This article has so many good tips for doing well in a UX interview.

• Making a good impression straight away will help you a lot, a way of doing this is by sending an introduction email that highlights who you are and why you're interesting.
• Be aware of the trends in the industry and what the employer thinks about them, it shows you care in general and about them.
• Don't be afraid to go through your work it shows who you are and how you work.
• Know your own processes and projects, how you work through the process and issues, and how you overcome them.
• Know your strengths you have to know areas that show your capabilities and it might be something they are specifically looking for.
• If you have done group work talk about it and how successful it is, as you will mostly likely be working in a team so being able to give an example will help a lot.
• Be clear and honest, knowing who you are and what you can offer them will make you so much more successful.
• Remember that while you are looking for a job they are looking for a specific person too, you should adapt to what they are looking for but if they aren't right for you.

I also found this article went through the process of an interview and most points that they will ask you about.

1. They will start with basic questions who are you? and how did you end up in this field? (these are really easy to practice or know what you're gonna say)
2. More technical questions about your process and methods? (they want to know that you understand the job and that you fit with who they are looking for)
3. UX process questions, like user mindset and principles in design (showing your process more)
4. Culture questions making sure you are a good fit with the company why do you want to work here
5. Curveballs most likely about issues that you have come up across (makes it clear who you are as a designer and how you handle things)
