Panel Discussion: How to Become a UX Researcher Without Experience
Table of contents

Together with a group of professionals I met through shared work interests, we will be holding an event that I am very excited about. It is a discussion panel titled How to become a UX Researcher if you have no experience.

The goal is to provide guidance to those who are just entering the world of UX Research.

Opportunities in the world of UX Research

The idea arose from observing the job opportunities that exist today. Did you know that only 12% of job offers for UX Researcher positions are for professionals without experience? The trend is similar in Latin America and worldwide, and we arrived at this figure by reviewing LinkedIn postings.

If you are thinking of making a career change through UX Research and you see that statistic, you might get discouraged. But I have good news for you: a large part of your possibilities depend on what you do, for example, to show that you actually do have experience, as we explained in our previous article.
