The Need for Digital Designers

In the age of highly refined apps and websites, designing a seamless UX and the UI is essential for businesses. The omnipresent digitalisation means that the demand for talented digital designers will not stop and will not be limited to any particular industry. By filling the user with positive experiences your user-centred design can make or break a product. Indeed, businesses recognize that and so they are desperate for the best talent.

Digital Design Jobs: Skills, Tools and Experience in Demand

Though UX and UI are separate fields within digital design, there is a couple of core components that these two share. Firstly, graphic design. You will need an eye for beautiful designs and the skills to execute your ideas. Adobe CC Suite (primarily Photoshop and Illustrator) will be essential for most digital design jobs. Front-end development (HTML, CSS and/or Javascript) is another essential skill in this field. Keep in mind that digital designers rarely work alone. Thus, teamwork is at heart of this industry. Some other tools that may be useful: Crazy Egg, Hotjar, Usersnap, Applause, Axure, Balsamiq, Invision Studio, Adobe XD, Proto.io.
