(Live) We Fix a Real UX Portfolio and Why Yours Is Not Getting You Hired
In this episode of The Design Table Podcast, Tyler and Nick review and fix a real portfolio from a junior designer who is struggling to land interviews. You will see exactly what is holding him back and the specific changes that turn a forgettable portfolio into one that gets you hired.
They break down whether a Figma file can replace a traditional portfolio, the layout and writing issues that silently disqualify junior designers, and why UI alone is not enough to get hired.
You will learn how to present your work, what hiring managers actually look for, and the simplest changes that instantly make any portfolio feel senior.
If you are rewriting your case studies for the fifth time and still getting ignored, this is the most practical episode you will watch all year.
