Design is a field that welcomes new practitioners every day. Over 50% of the current UX Professional workforce started their careers in the past 5 years, and over half of them in the past 2 years. I’ve been mentoring junior talent and students for the past 7 years and leading teams for the past 4 and I’ve discovered that fostering new talent is both the largest challenge and also our most valuable opportunity to push Design outside of its current niche. I want to share some tips and advice so you can help on this critical mission of modeling future Design generations
