1:1 UXR Portfolio Guidance & Review

Building a UX Research portfolio is entirely different from building a design portfolio or writing an academic paper. Hiring managers don't just want to see your methodologies; they want to see how you navigate ambiguity, collaborate with stakeholders, and drive actual business impact.

If you are struggling to balance text with visuals, unsure how to present a messy enterprise project, or just not getting past the initial screening rounds, this session is for you.

We will deep-dive into your case studies and optimise them to show off your strategic thinking, Experience Management skills, and ability to translate data into actionable insights.

What we will cover in our session:

• The Hiring Manager’s Lens: How to structure your portfolio to instantly hook recruiters and lead researchers.
• Case Study Tear-down: Live, constructive feedback on 1-2 of your case studies. We will refine your storytelling, problem statements, and impact metrics.
• Showcasing the "Messy" Middle: How to properly document pivot points, constraints, and stakeholder challenges (because real UX research is never perfectly linear).
• Formatting & Scannability: Striking the right balance between necessary context and high-level summaries.

Leave this session with a clear, actionable checklist to elevate your portfolio and confidently apply for your next UX Research role!
