A small shift that got 5 interviews in 2 weeks

Mar 30, 2025 5:01 pm

Let me tell you about Jeff—a UX designer who joined UX Careerpreneurs a few weeks ago.


He was doing what most people do:

• Checking job boards every day

• Sending dozens of applications

• Tinkering with his portfolio

• Getting zero replies


He told me, “I thought I was doing everything right, but I wasn’t getting anywhere.”


We made one small shift.


Instead of mass applying, I helped him rewrite a short message and send it to 10 people he genuinely wanted to work with.


Nothing fancy. No big pitch deck.

Just a simple, thoughtful message.


5 people replied.

2 of them introduced him to hiring managers.

He got 5 interviews lined up within 2 weeks.


No job offer yet. But he’s moving again.


And more importantly—he’s confident.

Because now, he knows what’s working and why.


That’s what we do in UX Careerpreneurs.


You already have the system. This is the help to actually implement it.

Without the second-guessing. Without overthinking.

With real feedback, structure, and momentum.


The investment is $100/week, and we work together closely each week.


If you want to get out of your own head and start seeing traction, reply “I’m in” and I’ll send you the next steps.


Joseph
