You’ve started your UX career. You’re either seeking or landing your first gig. You’re engaged in the day-to-day operations at work, but some big questions still loom. Where do you go from here? Which skills are most important? These are common questions among those getting started in UX. In this talk, Darren will build on last year’s presentation about the UX Cycle of Excellence by providing more critical info about domain knowledge and how to transition from general knowledge. He'll also shed light on the benefits of domain knowledge and how the levels one possesses serve as a major differentiator between practitioners.
