Hidden UX was started by me, Manuel Gonzales, who has been a UX designer since 2007.
Since being in the industry for more than 15 years, one thing has become apparent:
You do not need a university degree to become a UX designer, or to even get into the Industry
Instead, these 3 attributes are what's key to create trust:
(1) Skills - Can you create high-quality work?
(2) Experiences - What problems have you solved?
(3) Character - Are you easy to work with?
With going to University now creating a huge of debt for students, who graduate with limited real world application, I started HiddenUX to help people get into the creative digital industry without getting into a life time of debt.
It’s called HiddenUX due to people not being aware of the role of what a UX designer does as well as the industry it's in, hence a hidden role within a hidden industry. Welcome to HiddenUX.
