From Overwhelmed to In Control—Kirill’s UX Career Shift

Mar 30, 2025 12:56 am

When Kirill first reached out, he wasn’t even sure where to begin.


He’d been thinking about switching into UX for a while.


But he felt:

❌ Intimidated

❌ Confused about what steps to take

❌ Totally unsure how to network, especially as an introvert


He had no roadmap. No system. Just a gut feeling that UX might be the right move.


What We Did Together


We didn’t jump straight into tools or fancy portfolio templates.


We started with clarity.


📌 What do you value?

📌 What are your strengths—even if they aren’t “UX-specific” yet?

📌 Who are the right people to talk to—and how do you reach out without feeling awkward?


I gave Kirill a step-by-step system:

✔ How to set goals that feel real, not vague

✔ How to present his experience with confidence

✔ How to build professional relationships, one message at a time

✔ Templates, scripts, and feedback loops to make every step manageable


Where He Is Now


Today, Kirill’s no longer stuck.


✅ He knows what to do each week

✅ He sees networking as a skill, not a personality trait

✅ He believes in the value he brings—even without a traditional UX background


Here’s what he said:


“Working with Joseph was like catching a lifebuoy. He provided a structured way forward, equipping me with invaluable insights, tools, and reassurance. I’m now navigating the UX job market with far more confidence and clarity.”


This is what we do in UX Careerpreneurs.


We don’t just “coach.”

We equip you with the tools, mindset, and system to land roles that actually fit you.
