Selection criteria

Who gets in

Anyone who meets these criteria can apply. A person at UX Jobs reads every application before a profile goes live. Joining is free for designers.

Specialties we list

Designers from any country can apply.

You do the work professionally

You've been paid to work in one of the specialties above, recently. Full-time, contract, freelance and internships all count, at any level from early career to VP.
Your work is public

You have a portfolio, case study or published writing that anyone can open without a password or an account, and you'll add 1 to 4 images of work you're allowed to share. Employers here judge evidence, so this is the one we never bend.
One piece shows your thinking

At least one piece explains the problem, what you decided or did, and what changed because of it. For research: the study, the finding and the decision it changed. For brand and visual work: the brief, the idea and the result.
The work is yours

You made it, or you say clearly which part you made. Team work is welcome. Concept projects are fine if they're labelled as concepts.
You're real and reachable

Your real name, a working email and a LinkedIn profile or personal site that matches the work. We never show your email to anyone.
You're open to hearing from employers

Available now or within the next 3 months, for full-time, part-time, contract or freelance work. We'll ask you once a month to confirm, with one click.

We read every application ourselves, usually within a week.
You'll hear back by email either way.
If it's a "not yet", we'll say which criterion was missing. You can apply again whenever it's fixed.
Paying for anything at UX Jobs, including Portfolio Cards, never skips review.

Your salary, age or any other personal details beyond the form. A headshot is optional.
A paid plan. There isn't one for designers.
